Wingin’ It
Special Events Schedule
Rangers baseball games at Globe Life Park and events at the AT&T Stadium typically increase airport operations, as
visitors come in for the events.
Extended ATCT hours are expected for those events in bold. If interest is strong, the Tower is generally open for
five hours from the start of the evening events. Airport and ATCT staff also analyze departure patterns from similar
games in prior years before making a decision.
