Mullett Arena Parking Guide: Seating, Drop-Off, Sun Devil Hockey and Concerts

Scottsdale Sprinters’ short answer on Mullett Arena parking: ASU Parking runs it, in the Packard Structure garage off Packard Drive and 6th Street and/or the Novus garage, $15 for Sun Devil games and varying by show for concerts, paid by card. The 5,000-seat arena is at 411 South Packard Drive on ASU’s Tempe campus, doors open an hour before Sun Devil events, and the one published drop-off point is Lot 10, at Rio Salado Parkway and Packard Drive. For a group, one chauffeured vehicle replaces the garage, the card reader and the drive home.

How does parking work at Mullett Arena?

ASU Parking controls all event parking at Mullett Arena: Sun Devil hockey, concerts and touring shows park in the Packard Structure garage, off Packard Drive and 6th Street, and/or the Novus garage; Sun Devil games cost $15, concert parking varies by show, and the lots are staffed 3 hours before the event. Pay on site by credit card when you arrive, or buy parking ahead through the team’s or the show’s Ticketmaster page, which may add Ticketmaster fees. With ParkMobile at ASU you can also pay from your phone when you arrive on campus. For hockey, Sun Devil Athletics lists the Packard Drive Structure, the Novus Parking Structure (only in the spring) and a surface lot for hockey season pass holders only. The arena is cashless, with no ATMs inside, so a card or phone covers the parking and the concessions alike.

Where is the drop-off at Mullett Arena?

Mullett Arena’s one published drop-off point is Lot 10, at the northeast corner of Rio Salado Parkway and Packard Drive, where Lyft, the arena’s rideshare partner, picks up and drops off; the venue publishes no separate area for limousines, charters or buses. That is where a chauffeured group unloads too, unless ASU Parking directs otherwise on the night. We unload the group in Lot 10 and agree one pickup point there for the ride home before the puck drops or the show starts. No curb is held for booked vehicles. If the arena or ASU posts a different plan for an event, that plan comes first. A group that splits across cars also splits across the garage and the exit line. One vehicle arrives with everyone at once and leaves with everyone at once.

Where is Mullett Arena, and how do you get there?

Mullett Arena is at 411 South Packard Drive, Tempe, on ASU’s Tempe campus, just west of Rural Road, south of Rio Salado Parkway and the 202 and north of University Drive; from the Loop 202, take Exit 7 (Scottsdale Road and Rural Road) south, turn right on Rio Salado Parkway and left on Packard Drive, and the arena is on your left. From the south, head north on Rural Road, turn left on 6th Street and right on Packard Drive. The closest light rail stops the arena names are Veterans Way and College Avenue, and Mill Avenue and 3rd Street. The arena opened in 2022 and was the Arizona Coyotes’ home for the 2022-23 and 2023-24 NHL seasons, ASU says. A chauffeured group needs no directions: the driver takes the group to Lot 10 and waits for the ride home.

What time do doors open at Mullett Arena?

Doors at Mullett Arena open 1 hour before Sun Devil events, and typically 1 hour before concerts and special events, when each show’s page lists its own time; every entrance has a bag check and metal detectors, so arrive early enough to clear security. Tickets are paperless, on your phone through Ticketmaster, and there is no re-entry. The box office, at 411 South Packard Drive, opens an hour before Sun Devil events and ahead of concerts at times that vary by show; guest services is at the box office, on the south side behind section 110. For Sun Devil events, children aged 3 and older need a ticket; under 3 they share a seat with an adult. Some events have their own age requirements, and a hockey game has two intermissions. ASU is a smoke-free, tobacco-free campus, vaping included, inside and outside the arena.

What is the Mullett Arena bag policy?

For Sun Devil events Mullett Arena has a clear bag policy: clear bags no larger than 12 by 6 by 12 inches, plus a small bag no larger than 4.5 by 6.5 inches; for shows and concerts each event page sets its own policy, most of them the same, and every bag is subject to search. Not allowed: backpacks, large purses, oversized totes, colored plastic bags, solid drawstring bags, camera bags, binocular cases, mesh bags and reusable grocery bags, and there is no check-in location for them. Luggage is not permitted either. Also not allowed: outside food and beverages, weapons, refillable or metal water bottles, strollers, selfie sticks, professional cameras with detachable lenses, noise makers, laser pointers, balloons and hockey sticks. One sealed plastic water bottle per guest is allowed. Settle bags before you leave: a group that is dropped off has no car in the garage to go back to, and the arena says turned-away items go back to the vehicle or are discarded.

What is the seating like at Mullett Arena, and how many people does it hold?

Mullett Arena is a 5,000-seat arena on three levels, with two NHL regulation-size ice sheets, 20 suites for 17 people each and 2 group suites for 29, loge boxes at center ice and rinkside, and a social deck on the 300 level that runs the length of the east side. The arena is fully ADA accessible, with elevators at the VIP entrance on the southeast side and on the northeast side behind section 105, wheelchairs through guest services, and a KultureCity sensory inclusive certification. ASU says the arena can be transformed for concerts; the show’s own seating chart is on its ticket page. For a group, book the seats together and the ride together, and the night stays together.

Which vehicle fits a Mullett Arena group?

A VIP night takes the Maybach Jet Sprinter, the Ultra Luxury Party Sprinter, the Maybach Shuttle Sprinter or the Luxury SUV (Suburban). Game-night and concert crews ride the Limo Party Sprinter (12-13 Pax), the Limo Party Sprinter (16 Pax) or the Party Bus (28 Pax). Families, company nights and big groups take the Executive Black Sprinter, the Executive White Sprinter, the Mini Bus (24 Pax) or the Executive Mini Coach (29 Pax). Seat counts are seated capacities from the fleet: the Ultra Luxury Party Sprinter seats 15, the Limo Party Sprinter (12-13 Pax) 13, the Limo Party Sprinter (16 Pax) 16, the Party Bus (28 Pax) 28 and the Maybach Jet Sprinter 9. The Executive Black Sprinter seats 14, the Mini Bus (24 Pax) 24 and the Executive Mini Coach (29 Pax) 29. Our pick for a night at the arena is the Ultra Luxury Party Sprinter, $250 an hour with a 4-hour minimum: fiber-optic lighting with eighteen modes, an ultra-premium sound system and a full partition with an intercom to your chauffeur. The Limo Party Sprinter (12-13 Pax) is $175 an hour with a 4-hour minimum, and the Executive Black Sprinter is $145 an hour with a 4-hour minimum. Every rate prices the whole vehicle, before tax. Count riders for the ride home as well as the ride there; the late list is the one that matters. For a group bigger than one vehicle, we plan two or more and quote them together.

How should a group plan the ride to a Mullett Arena game or show?

Plan backwards from the puck drop or the show time: doors open 1 hour before Sun Devil events and typically 1 hour before concerts, so a pickup that lands the group in Lot 10 around doors leaves room for the bag check and the metal detectors. The ride home is the part to plan hardest. Agree the pickup point before the game or the show, and your chauffeur is waiting when it ends, so the group walks out to its own vehicle instead of the garage line. Families bring children to Sun Devil games (every child aged 3 and older needs a ticket). If even one passenger is under 21, the trip is alcohol-free for the whole group, adults included; we sell no alcohol on any trip. Book by the hour and the vehicle is yours for the whole night, dinner in Tempe before the game included, or book a ride there and a ride back. Reach the reservations team at (623) 986-6339 or reservations@scottsdalesprinters.com with the game or show, the date, the pickup area and the rider count.
