The NFL sets Week 18 dates, kickoff times and TV networks late in the season, after Week 17, so they are not available yet. The printed or mobile ticket should be checked again after the league announces the final schedule.

Game-day plans by city
Selecting a city in the switch above brings that city's plan to the front. Both plans are written out in full below and both remain readable if the switch is unavailable.
Both city plans are open. Chicago is first, Minneapolis follows.
Chicago · Soldier Field · Week 2
Chicago game-day plan
A clock running backwards from kickoff.
Check the mobile ticket, charge the phone and review the latest stadium entry information.
Begin travelling toward the stadium area. Traffic and public transport can become busier as kickoff approaches.
Arrive near Soldier Field, confirm the correct gate and allow time for security screening.
Enter the stadium, locate the section and resolve any ticket problem before the game begins.
Sunday, September 20 at 12:00 p.m. CDT.
Exact gate-opening times are not published here because they have not been confirmed for this game.
Weather note for this city
The Week 2 game is outdoors. Conditions may range from warm and sunny to cool, wet or windy. Check the forecast on game morning.
Minneapolis · U.S. Bank Stadium · Week 18
Minneapolis game-day plan
A weather-to-seat route rather than a clock, because the kickoff time has not been announced.
Confirm the final Week 18 date and kickoff time. Check the ticket, transport updates and winter weather.
Allow extra travel time when snow, ice or a major event affects roads and trains.
Use the gate shown or recommended for the ticket location. Complete security screening before heading to the seating level.
Check section, row and seat numbers before moving away from the concourse.
No specific train schedule, parking price or gate time is claimed here, because no current source for them was supplied.
Weather note for this city
The game is played inside U.S. Bank Stadium, but travel and entry happen during winter. Clothing and transport planning should account for conditions outside the building.

Before buying:
Understanding ticket prices
This section explains why ticket prices move. It does not quote any figure, because no listing, price, range or marketplace has been supplied for either game.
Lower sideHigher side
Illustration only This dial shows direction and factors. It carries no number, no scale and no forecast, and it is not tied to any listing.
Demand can change because of:
[ Heading pending ]
- Travel depends on having confirmed tickets.
- Accessible seating arrangements must be made.
- The game is expected to affect the division race.
Waiting may provide more listings when:
- The buyer is flexible about location.
- Only one or two seats are needed.
- Travel is already arranged.
- The buyer accepts the risk of rising prices or reduced choice.
Ticket safety check
Eight checks. Tick each one as you complete it. A completed check is marked with the word “Done” and a tick, not by colour alone.
Accessible seating
Both venues provide accessible seating and related services, but availability and purchasing procedures must be checked with the stadium or authorised ticket provider.
A resale listing should not be assumed to include every accessibility feature. Contact the venue when seating location, companion space, mobility assistance or another accommodation is required.
Soldier Field accessibility information Link pending No destination was supplied for this button, so it is shown as plain text rather than as a link that goes nowhere. Contact Soldier Field or the official ticket provider directly until the correct address is added here.
U.S. Bank Stadium accessibility information Link pending No destination was supplied for this button either. The site's own U.S. Bank Stadium guide covers accessibility for Vikings home games in the meantime, but it is not a substitute for the venue's official accessible-seating contact.
Weather difference
Both panels stay side by side, because the contrast between the two trips is the point.
Chicago in September
The Week 2 game is outdoors. Conditions may range from warm and sunny to cool, wet or windy. Check the forecast on game morning.
Minneapolis in Week 18
The game is played inside U.S. Bank Stadium, but travel and entry happen during winter. Clothing and transport planning should account for conditions outside the building.

Final purchase panel
A checklist you fill in for yourself. Nothing here places an order, nothing is submitted, and no payment or personal details are asked for or accepted.
The most important choice comes before the seat comparison. Select the correct city, venue and game date first.
After that, compare the total cost, confirm that the seats are together and review how the tickets will be delivered. For the Week 18 meeting in Minneapolis, check the final date and kickoff time again before making travel arrangements.
