Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Dalzell Field

800 Clarke Dr

Dubuque, Iowa 52001

Conveniently located in Dubuque on the Clarke University campus, Dalzell Field is roughly a 3-hour drive from both Des Moines, Iowa, and Chicago, Illinois — an accessible day trip for regional fans.

• Parking: On-site parking is available in adjacent lots; options are typically free or low cost depending on the event.
• Public Transit: Limited public transit serves the Clarke University area; check local bus routes for the most current schedules.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Rideshare services have pickup/dropoff near the main entrance on Clarke Dr, making arrival and departure easy.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before kickoff or the event start time. Early arrival helps you secure better parking, move through entry lines with ease, and find optimal seats on the home-side bleachers before the action gets underway.

This is an outdoor venue, so prepare for the weather. Bring layers for cool evenings, sun protection for daytime events, and rain gear if the forecast calls for it — events may be delayed or adjusted due to weather. Cell service is generally reliable, but it can be slower during larger crowds, so download your mobile tickets in advance.

Expect a short walk from adjacent lots to the gates, and use accessible ramps if needed. If you’re using a rideshare, set your dropoff at the main entrance on Clarke Dr for the most direct access to the stands.

Venue Navigation

Dalzell Field features a large home-side grandstand with bleacher-style seating and a track encircling the modern synthetic turf field. The layout offers straightforward sightlines from most rows, with elevated seating that provides a clear view of the field and surrounding campus.

Concession stands operate during events, and restrooms are available on site. If you plan to explore concourses or climb to higher rows, comfortable footwear is a smart choice for navigating stairs and bleacher steps.

Security and Policies

• Bag Policy: Bag policies vary by event — please review your event listing and check the venue's official website for the latest guidelines before you go.
• Prohibited Items: Prohibited items vary by event — please review your event listing and venue policy updates prior to arrival.
• Re-entry Policy: No re-entry once you exit the venue.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• Dress for an outdoor stadium — layers for cool nights or rain, and sun protection for day games.
• Central home-side bleacher sections typically offer the best views of the field.

Pre-Event Planning

If your event uses general admission seating, arriving early can improve your pick of spots, especially around midfield where views are most centered. Early birds also enjoy easier parking and shorter concession lines, so you can settle in before teams take the field.

Use the main entrance on Clarke Dr as a rally point for your group — it’s a convenient meeting spot if guests are coming from different directions or using rideshare. With a track surrounding the field and an elevated home-side grandstand, there are plenty of vantage points to snap a quick photo before kickoff.

Make a full day of it by pairing your game with a stop at a nearby restaurant, or plan a quick bite on campus before heading to your seats. Whether it’s football, soccer, or a track meet, a little planning goes a long way toward a relaxed, memorable experience.

Accessibility

Dalzell Field supports accessible experiences with ADA parking in adjacent lots, accessible seating in the main bleacher areas, and ramps for easier entry to seating.
