Important Construction & Parking Update 

As part of the ongoing enhancements to our campus through the Wilhelmina’s Grove Renovation (March 2024–October 2025) and the upcoming Loop Road Construction (December 2024–October 2025), several areas near our venues will experience temporary closures and access adjustments. 

Please note: 
  • Zone B / Parking Lot 16 will be closed from May 23 to August 1, 2025. 
  • Phase 1 construction in front of the Moores School of Music will be completed in July 2025, and fencing in that area will be removed. 
We encourage all visitors to check the Construction Navigation and Parking website for the most current parking options, detailed maps, and updated walking and driving directions. 

Thank you for your patience and continued support as we work to create a more vibrant, accessible, and welcoming environment for our community.
