What Happens at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium is a large sports venue with a track, a football ground and facilities for spectators. The Sports Authority of India maintains and uses it on behalf of the Ministry of Sports and Youth Affairs, Government of India.

The stadium’s facilities support sporting events, but the official venue information does not establish a regular public event schedule. Check the details for the specific event you plan to attend rather than assuming the stadium is open for general visits.
Finding Event and Ticket Information
- Ticket
- purchasing channel for stadium events
For venue availability, tariffs and amenities, contact the stadium administrator; the Sports Authority of India’s venue-hiring guidance directs enquiries there. Its stadium-booking website advises people to contact the concerned stadium in-charge for booking information.
The administrator’s contact details are 011-24369781 and jns-sai@gov.in. The official stadium page does not give public opening days or hours, admission prices, or a general ticket-purchasing channel for stadium events. For a specific event, confirm the organiser’s ticket arrangements and entry details before making plans.
Check the official site before you go, especially for event and booking information. For an event that is not sports-related, venue-hiring guidance says a no-objection certificate from Joint CP Licensing, New Delhi Police, is required.

Entry, Security and Parking Checks
Confirm entry rules and parking arrangements with the event organiser or stadium administrator before travelling. The official stadium information does not provide general parking details or a universal set of event-day entry rules, so avoid relying on assumptions about access.
The venue has 14 ramps for upper seating and four interior ramps for lower seating, along with stairs, lifts and escalators. Barrier-free access and amenities are provided. If you need specific access arrangements, contact the stadium ahead of your visit.
Planning an Event-Day Stay
- Opening hours
- the official stadium page does not publish visitor hours
For a stadium event, first confirm its date, ticket arrangements and entry instructions; then check travel and parking details for that event. If you are flying into the city, include your airport transfer in your arrival planning.
Do not plan a general visit around assumed public opening hours: the official stadium page does not publish visitor hours. If your plans involve booking the venue for an event, contact the administrator, and allow time to confirm any required arrangements.
