The short answer

Public pay lots cost $25 to $55 depending on the lot and whether it's a conference game. All are cashless; buy ahead through PMC or pay at the lot.

Where to park

  • Pay lots: Bully Grass and Sorority Grass $45 ($55 for conference games); Pace Seed Grass, Zacharias, Sponsored Parking, North Garage and Barr Paved $35 ($45 conference); Research Park, Vet School, RecPlex and the ADA lots $25 ($35 conference).
  • All lots are cashless (debit, credit or tap) and every transaction has a processing fee. Buy ahead at parkwithpmc.com/venues/davis-wade-stadium. Grass lots go on sale at 8:30 a.m. the Friday before the game and depend on the weather.
  • Lots open at 8 a.m. for 1 to 8 p.m. kickoffs and at 7 a.m. for 11 a.m. to noon kickoffs.
  • Don't park on lot islands, medians, berms or street shoulders, and don't save spaces. Parking areas must be cleared by 7 a.m. the day after the game.

Shuttles & park and ride

  • Transit runs from 4 hours before kickoff until 2 hours after the game. Research Park transit drops off at Old Main Academic; Vet School transit drops off at Newell Grissom.
