San Jose Sharks at SAP Center
SAP Center sits beside San Jose Diridon station and downtown, so it is easy to build a compact evening around hockey. Check the Sharks’ current schedule and arena information before choosing parking, transit or dinner plans.
Take a look around
01
Eat downtown before the puck drops
San Pedro Square Market has a broad mix of food and is a popular nearby pregame option. Check its current hours and allow for the walk to the arena and entry line.
02
Add a daytime city stop
The Tech Interactive and the San Jose Museum of Art are downtown choices for a longer visit. Check their calendars, then leave a generous gap before game time rather than stacking timed activities against puck drop.
Getting there & back
Give the ride a place in your plans.
A private ride can connect a hotel, SJC, or downtown dinner with SAP Center. Share the event date, pickup and drop-off addresses, and passenger needs for a quote. Agree on a public meeting location and allow a flexible postgame window for arena crowds.
Review the exact destination and return plan when requesting your quote. Transportation does not include event tickets, admission or venue reservations.
