Parking reminders for upcoming home basketball games

As a reminder to faculty, staff and students, some campus parking restrictions will be in place for home men’s and women’s basketball games. Faculty, staff and students should plan ahead during affected times.

Some parking near Mackey Arena and Ross-Ade Stadium will be closed with clear signage posted in advance for event parking. However, the following garages and lots will be open for eligible university permit holders during business hours of weekday games with no ticketing or towing, unless deemed necessary for public safety:

  • University Street Parking Garage
  • Wood Street Parking Garage
  • Harrison Street Parking Garage
  • All university parking south of Mitch Daniels Boulevard

The locations listed above do not require a university parking permit in evenings or on weekends.

The Northwestern Avenue Parking Garage (restricted for men’s home games only) and impacted parking lots will be restricted as of 5 p.m. for games taking place during the week and three hours ahead of weekend game start times. As exceptions, parking restrictions will be in place beginning at 8 a.m. for the Dec. 20 game and 4:30 p.m. for the Dec. 21 game. Individuals without an athletic parking permit will need to remove their vehicle from event lots prior to the designated time. Those who are parked in the Northwestern Avenue Parking Garage with a university parking permit prior to the event parking time will not need to relocate their vehicle. 

Men’s (M) and women’s (W) home games are scheduled at the following dates and times in the remainder of December and early January:

  • Wednesday, Dec. 20, at 11 a.m. (W)
  • Thursday, Dec. 21, at 6:30 p.m. (M)
  • Friday, Dec. 29, at 7 p.m. (M)

  • Wednesday, Jan. 10, at 8 p.m. (W)
  • Saturday, Jan. 13, at 2:15 p.m. (M)

Game dates and times are subject to change, and the Athletics website will reflect the most up-to-date schedules for men’s and women’s games.
