About New York Jets at Arizona Cardinals
In Week 15 of the 2026 NFL season, the New York Jets travel to Glendale to face the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium on December 20, 2026.
It is an interconference clash — a rarer cross-league matchup that pits the AFC against the NFC and gives fans a look at an opponent they see only once every few years. State Farm Stadium sets the stage.
FanTravel’s guide below covers a fan trip to this game: where visiting fans stay, eat and drink in Glendale, the bars that fill up before kickoff, and the tailgate scene around State Farm Stadium. Every venue pick is web-researched and sourced.
Venue: State Farm Stadium
Home of the Cardinals (NFL) with a retractable roof and a roll-out natural grass field — one of engineering's coolest stadium innovations. Has hosted Super Bowls, Final Fours, and WrestleManias in the Arizona desert. Capacity: 63,400.

New York Jets at Arizona Cardinals Weekend Planning Blueprint
A simple playbook for doing this Cardinals home game right.
- Get tickets early. Buy through the team’s official channel or a verified resale marketplace, and decide whether you want the home end or the visiting-fan section.
- Base near the stadium or downtown. The hotels below are picked for a walk-or-short-ride to State Farm Stadium — book early for a home game weekend.
- Work the tailgate and the game-day bars. Get to Glendale with hours to spare; the pre-game scene around State Farm Stadium is half the experience.
- Plan transit, not parking. NFL game-day traffic is its own opponent — use transit or rideshare and give yourself a buffer.
Who This Event Fits Best
An NFL road game is a specific kind of trip. Here is who this one in Glendale is built for.
- The traveling Jets fan. You follow your team on the road. This is your weekend in enemy territory — find the visiting-fan-friendly bars below and travel in numbers.
- The home Cardinals fan hosting friends. You know State Farm Stadium; this guide is for showing out-of-towners where the real game-day scene is.
- The stadium-tour fan. You are working through all 30 NFL stadiums. State Farm Stadium is one to tick off — plan the trip around the tailgate and the city.
- Maybe sit this one out if… you want a quiet weekend. An NFL game day in Glendale is loud, crowded and all-in — that is the point.
