Location and Transportation

Venue Address

ExtraMile Arena

1401 Bronco Ln

Boise, ID 83706

Located in Boise — Idaho’s capital and largest city — ExtraMile Arena sits on the Boise State University campus, making it easy to pair a game or concert with a campus stroll or downtown visit.

• Parking: On-site parking is available in adjacent lots and garages; event parking fees typically range from $5–$10. Advance purchase and early arrival are recommended.
• Public Transit: Valley Regional Transit bus routes serve the Boise State campus area.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Designated pickup and dropoff zones are located near the arena entrance.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before showtime to allow for parking, security screening, and navigating to your seats. On-site parking can fill quickly, especially for high-demand games and concerts, so arriving early helps you avoid delays and secure a convenient spot.

ExtraMile Arena is an indoor venue, so weather typically won’t affect your event, but it can impact your walk from parking areas. Some walking is required from campus lots and garages — give yourself extra time and wear comfortable shoes if you’re parked farther out.

If you’re using public transit or rideshare, confirm your route and dropoff point in advance. Rideshare zones are near the main entrance, and campus traffic can be busy right before and after events. Cell service is generally reliable but may be congested during peak times, so download your tickets ahead of arrival.

Venue Navigation

The arena’s horseshoe-shaped design and numbered sections (100s for the lower bowl, 200s for the upper bowl) make it straightforward to find your seats. Elevators and ramps provide access to all seating levels, and accessible seating is offered throughout the venue.

You’ll find multiple concession stands serving classic arena fare — pizza, hot dogs, nachos, popcorn, and more — along with select stands featuring local craft beer and regional items. Merchandise stands are positioned around the concourse for concerts and Boise State games, and ATMs and charging stations are available throughout. If your route includes stairs or longer walks from parking, comfortable footwear is a smart choice.

Security and Policies

• Bag Policy: Clear bag policy in effect; bags must be clear plastic and not exceed 12" x 6" x 12". Small clutches (max 4.5" x 6.5") allowed.
• Prohibited Items: Weapons, outside food and beverage, large bags, professional cameras, audio/video recording devices, laser pointers, and noisemakers.
• Re-entry Policy: No re-entry once you exit the venue.
• Service Animals: ADA-compliant service animals are welcome.

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.
• Consider purchasing parking in advance and arrive early to avoid campus congestion.
• Follow the clear bag policy (12" x 6" x 12") to speed up entry and breeze through security.

Pre-Event Planning

Give yourself time to enjoy the Boise State campus setting before your event. A pre-show stroll around the area sets the tone, and the campus views — especially near sunset — make for great photos before you head inside.

If you’re attending with a group, pick a clear meet-up spot like the main entrance or a specific section on the concourse to simplify coordination. Sharing a screenshot of the ExtraMile Arena seating chart with your group helps everyone find the right gate and aisle quickly.

For high-demand concerts and games, plan your arrival window around traffic and parking availability, and have your mobile tickets ready to scan. With flexible layouts and a variety of seating types, a few extra minutes before showtime can make your night even smoother.

Accessibility

ExtraMile Arena is ADA-accessible, with adjacent ADA parking (valid permit required), accessible seating throughout both the lower and upper levels, and elevators and ramps connecting all floors. Mobility shuttles are available for select events from parking areas to the arena entrance, and assistive listening devices can be obtained at guest services.

If you need help selecting accessible seating, contact Ticket Purchase for personalized support before buying.

Dining Options

Inside the venue, you’ll find concessions serving snacks, drinks, and classic arena favorites like pizza, hot dogs, nachos, and popcorn. Select stands offer local craft beer and regional items, so you can enjoy a taste of Boise while you catch the action.
