Parking At A Glance

What to do
FGCU’s game-day guide lists gates opening one hour before scheduled home events. Use that window for ticket questions and screening, and check the actual game notice for changes.
Best option
For basketball, attendants direct general parking to adjacent lots around the FGCU Athletic Complex. The first section of the Alico lot is reserved for ADA placards, the second for VIP parking, with additional Eagles Club reserved areas. Follow the current game instructions and your pass.
Avoid
University parking rules still apply when attendants are absent. Basketball and volleyball use different parking arrangements; do not assume an empty reserved space is available.
