Cardinals vs Cowboys Preseason at State Farm Stadium: The Glendale Group Game-Day Guide

There are road games, and then there are nights when the Dallas Cowboys come to the desert. On Saturday, August 22, 2026, the Arizona Cardinals host the Cowboys at State Farm Stadium in Glendale to close out the preseason — and the West Valley is going to be loud.

If you're rallying a crew of friends, coworkers, or season-ticket diehards, the smartest play isn't 12 separate cars circling the lots. It's one luxury party bus that turns the commute into the first quarter of the fun.

Why a party bus wins on game day

State Farm Stadium seats more than 63,000 people, and on a Cardinals–Cowboys night the surrounding lots and the Loop 101 fill fast. Tailgate traffic in Glendale's Sports & Entertainment District is its own opponent.

Roll in together and you skip the worst of it. No designated-driver debate, no splitting up, no one stuck sober behind the wheel while everyone else celebrates a goal-line stand.

• Everyone arrives together — and on time for kickoff.
• Curbside drop-off near the gates, then a set pickup spot after the final whistle.
• Onboard sound and lighting to get the hype going before you even park.
• One bill, split across the group — luxury group transportation starting at $150/hr.

Built for the tailgate crowd

Our party buses and limos are climate-controlled, which matters in a Glendale August. Load the cooler, keep everyone comfortable, and let the desert heat stay outside.

Plan your Cardinals vs Cowboys ride

Preseason or not, a Cowboys game draws one of the biggest visiting fan bases in the NFL, so this is a high-demand date. Vehicles for marquee Glendale events book out weeks ahead.

Here's how the night typically runs with Jacob Transportation:

• Pregame pickup at your home, office, or a central Valley meetup spot.
• Tailgate window in the Sports & Entertainment District before you head to the gates.
• Postgame — your driver is waiting, climate on, ready to roll while everyone else hunts for their car.
