Tennessee Athletics Announces Important Basketball Gameday Updates

With the women's and men's basketball teams set to tip off the home portion of their campaigns early next week, Tennessee Athletics has some important updates for all fans planning to make their way to Food City Center during the 2023-24 hoops season.

Public Parking Lots Are Cashless (Credit Cards Required)
Starting with the Lady Vols' exhibition game vs. Carson-Newman on Oct. 30, any fan coming to campus looking to purchase parking will have to do so on site with a credit card for all events, including men's and women's basketball.

Free Shuttle Service Again Available From Ag Campus
Campus parking is limited for large Food City Center events, but there is a free shuttle service from the Ag Campus for all fans, dropping off and picking up immediately adjacent to Food City Center. ADA shuttles and entry will operate the same as previous years.

Tennessee Athletics strongly recommends and encourages fans to ride our shuttles as public parking is very limited on campus, particularly for SEC and highly-attended basketball games.

For all parking passholders, CLICK HERE for specific recommendations on how to enter campus for men's or women's games.
The designated rideshare drop-off/pick-up location will be on Todd Helton Drive west of Food City Center.
After the game, UTPD & gameday traffic control will expedite traffic flow off campus and allow guests to get home as quickly as possible. Please follow all instructions.

Traffic Patterns To Be Affected By Campus And Neyland Stadium Construction And Upgrades
Due to on-going construction and upgrades to Neyland Stadium, fans should be advised of changes coming to normal traffic patterns on Phillip Fulmer Way and Peyton Manning Pass during the 2023-24 basketball seasons. Please prepare in advance and stay tuned for more information.

Phillip Fulmer Way from G-10 garage to Neyland Stadium Gate 21 vicinity will be closed (tentatively set for Dec. 4, 2023).
Vehicular entry via the area northeast of the Food City Center will at times be inaccessible, and avoiding that vicinity is strongly recommended.

Arriving Early Is A Must With Big Crowds Expected
As ticket sales continue to increase for both men's and women's basketball games, fans should plan to arrive on campus and at Food City Center early.

All tickets and Tennessee Fund parking passes remain digital, and information can be found HERE.
Just like last season, fans will see walk-through metal detectors outside of all Food City Center entrances.

What's New?
Fans with access to the Courtside Club will see a newly renovated space by Harper Auto Square. Fans will enjoy the area's fresh look, along with a pre-game meal and in-game snacks.

All fans should visit the sport specific GAMEDAY INFO. PAGES for all updated information prior to coming to Food City Center.

Fans seeking assistance inside Food City Center can contact the event management staff by texting the message VOLS to 865-974-9898. Provide a description of your issue or incident as well as your location within the venue, including the section, row and seat number. Standard SMS rates apply.
