Event guidelines

The Special Event Parking Guidelines are as follows:

  • A proper parking permit must be displayed Monday through Thursday, from 7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. and on Fridays from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Groups planning to park on campus during this time may purchase parking permits in advance through the Parking Services Office, the Scheduling Services Office (if they are non-campus entities) or attendees may purchase permits individually at the parking office located on 16th Street, upon their arrival.
  • Daily parking permits cost $10 each for all silver and yellow zones, $7 each for the West Stadium Complex and $5 each for all ADA, green, tan, orange and blue zones.
  • Friday 5 p.m. through 7:30 a.m. Monday (Weekends), Groups (estimates of under 100 people) needing to park on campus during this time period will not be subject to a parking fee and will not be required to display a parking permit. Parking permits will not be distributed for these events.

*Ticketed events such as large concerts held at the events center or large athletic events pay for parking through a ticket surcharge instead of the guidelines listed above.

**The Parking Services Department will make the determination as to whether or not the event organizers must hire parking lot attendants for their event. If required, the event must pay for this service. The decision is based upon the number of individuals expected to attend the event, the particular parking areas that are requested to be used for the event, and the parking needs of disabled patrons. This information will be provided by the department scheduling the event.

Church Fine Arts events

Parking for Church Fine Arts events in which a ticket has been purchased is available on Level 4 of the Brian J. Whalen Parking Complex at no charge.

If the event is a non-ticketed event (free entry), normal parking regulations apply. Parking is enforced Monday-Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and on Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m during fall and spring semesters.
