Historic Memorial Coliseum is at 201 Avenue of Champions, Lexington, KY 40506. Women’s basketball shuttles run free from Cornerstone Garage PS #5 and High Street Lot to the Lexington Avenue entrance. At PS #5, cross the third-level skybridge; the shuttle stop is to the left at the crosswalk.

Parking

Kentucky women’s basketball shuttles begin 90 minutes before tipoff and run through the first quarter, then resume at the start of the third quarter until one hour after the game. Pickup is at PS #5 and High Street, with drop-off at Memorial’s Lexington Avenue entrance. Gymnastics shuttles instead pause after the first rotation and resume in the fourth.

The 2026–27 Memorial chart says elevators connect court and main concourse, while 100-level sections require stairs from the concourse. Elevators are on the Avenue of Champions/Euclid side. Arrange a suitable accessible ticket; ordinary 100-level seats are not a step-free promise.

For Memorial women’s basketball, one unopened water bottle smaller than one liter is allowed. Empty disposable-style plastic bottles smaller than one liter may be refilled inside. Glass, aluminum and hard-shell bottles are prohibited; complimentary water is on the Rose Street and Lexington Avenue concourses. Confirm other sports’ event rules.
