UK Wildcats vs. SC Gamecocks!

The Wildcats will face the South Carolina Gamecocks this Saturday afternoon, September 7, at Kroger Field.

This will be the second home game in a row for the Wildcats and means that some permit holders must relocate their vehicles to make way for fans. The University appreciates the cooperation from staff and students to make game day a seamless and enjoyable experience for all.

Students and employees who park in the following lots and structures should relocate their vehicles prior to 7 a.m. on game day:

• Periphery (RK, CK, & EK) parking lots at Kroger Field (Blue, South Red Lot & Orange lot), Commonwealth Drive Lot, College Way East and West lots, and Wildcat Court lots
• North Red Lot (E10, C10, & R10)
• Sports Center Garage (PS #7)
• Sports Center Drive Lots 
• Shively Lot (R16 & C16)
• Woodland Avenue Lot (E-intermediate)
• Columbia Avenue East Lot (E-intermediate)
• Ag Greenhouse Lots near the Agriculture Science Center North Building
• University Drive Garage (PS #1)

In addition, students and employees who park in the Green Lot (C10, R10, E10) should relocate their vehicle prior to 10 p.m. on the Friday before home football game days.

Parking along University Drive is prohibited beginning at 12:01 a.m. on game days.

In addition, the large Gluck Equine Center Lot and a portion of the Orange Lot are restricted to UK Football recreational vehicle (RV) permit parking starting at 7:30 p.m. on the Friday before home football games.

As a result, members of the University community who park in these lots on Fridays should avoid parking in the designated RV areas if they anticipate they will need to remain on campus beyond 7:30 p.m.

Vehicles remaining in the restricted areas after that time will be relocated by the University to the designated vehicle relocation area, located at the southwest corner of the Orange Lot adjacent to the Orange Lot Alumni Drive exit.

See this map for details about the Orange Lot RV areas.

Following the game, vehicles must be moved back to permitted parking areas before 5 a.m. on Monday, September 9.

The vehicle relocation map with a complete list of relocation times can be found here. Failure to relocate your vehicle to the designated areas can result in citation or vehicle impoundment.

Please see below for the 2024 home football game schedule, which will require vehicle relocation:

In addition to vehicle relocation, there are some changes to the weekend Yellow Route on home football game days. On these days, the buses do not travel to the congested Kroger Field area. Instead, they turn near University and Hospital drives and travel through all major residential areas of campus. The modified route starts two hours pre-game and continues one-hour post-game.

If you have questions about football relocation areas or procedures, please email UK Transportation Services or call our customer service center at 859-257-5757.
