Can you park near UT on Longhorns game days? What to know before you go
Hook 'em horns - but don't get hooked up in an unexpected tow this Longhorns season.
The University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) hosted their season opener against Texas State on September 5, 2025, at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. As thousands of Longhorn fans arrived for the game, it was crucial to understand the parking rules and regulations to ensure a smooth experience.
UT Austin enforces strict towing policies during home games, requiring vehicles in certain parking lots to be moved by specific deadlines. These lots include 15, 18, 19, 20, 35, 37, 38, 39, 40, 53, 56, 80, 92, 102, 108, 116, and 118. Those parked along university streets also needed to comply with time-based relocation deadlines.
Parking garages had their own relocation requirements. Those with ECG R permits were exempt from relocation. Parking in specific garages like Brazos, Manor, San Jacinto, Trinity, and East Campus required moving vehicles by 11:59 p.m. on September 4.
Pay-for-use parking options were available through the Texas Facilities Commission, with fees applicable. For those needing special accommodations, parking closer to the stadium was offered; however, it wasn't ADA-compliant. Spaces in Lot 118 and along Trinity Street near DeLoss Dodds Way were available for a fee of $50, on a first-come, first-served basis.
