Meadowlands - Sports Complex Overview

omprised of the Continental Arena, Giants Stadium and the Big M racing track, this complex hosts over 600 sporting and entertainment events each year.

With a convenient location near New Jersey Turnpike Exit 16W, the Meadowlands successfully draws patrons from the entire metropolitan area, with over seven million people attending activities at the three venues annually.

For the most part the traffic flows smoothly in and out, though on occasion popular events will be scheduled in both the arena and stadium at the same time, causing some temporary traffic problems on the surrounding roadways.

The descriptive pages for each of the venues include information about the respective home teams and selected entertainment event highlights.

While the Big M has you pretty well covered from a dining point of view, you may be interested in some area restaurants for a meal before or after attending an event at the stadium or arena. The Meadowlands Web site lists a few choices and here are a few more for your consideration:

Dining with the Sopranos	Yes, those Sopranos! This Web site has assembled a list of dining spots in the general area that have been used in the filming of the hit series - eating at one of these should make for a fun time to round out your day.
