Game Day: What You Need to Know |
|
The UCF Knights will host Tulane University at 2 p.m. Saturday, October 24, at the Bounce House. |
|
The Game Day A-Z Guide is the best place to find the most updated and thorough information about game days at UCF this fall. Below are some of the most significant updates impacting fans and those who will be on campus for other reasons on game day. |
- Fans must wear face coverings at all times except while actively eating and drinking in their own seats.
- Fans must practice physical distancing.
- More parking garages and lots are available for open parking, while several other campus lots and garages will be closed to everyone.
- Neither tailgating nor consuming alcohol on campus is allowed.
- Students, faculty and staff should complete UCF’s COVID Self Checker before arriving.
- Capacity is limited to 25 percent in each section of the stadium, and fans will be required to enter via the gate listed on their mobile ticket.

|
The health and well-being of everyone attending the football game is our top priority, and all fans and staff will be required to abide by UCF’s COVID-19 policies. |
|
All fans and staff will be required to wear a face covering that covers the nose and mouth completely. Face coverings must be worn at all times except while actively eating or drinking in your seat. |
|
Fans should keep a safe distance between their party and other fans while inside and outside the stadium. Some seats inside the stadium will be blocked off and unavailable for use. |
|
Game day ambassadors and ushers inside the stadium will help to remind fans about our COVID-19 requirements. |
|
Physical distancing markers will be placed around the stadium in areas where lines may form, such as restrooms, concessions and merchandise locations. Additional signs will be present at the gates, seating section entrances and parking/transportation areas. |
|
Fans who are not feeling well or have been in close contact with someone they suspect may have COVID-19 should stay home and contact their doctor. Fans who are in isolation or on quarantine due to COVID-19 also should stay home. |
|
No Tailgating or Open Container Waiver |
|
Following guidance from health officials, tailgating at UCF home games is prohibited. There will be no open-container waivers on UCF game days, meaning fans cannot consume alcohol on campus grounds or in university parking lots or garages. |
|
Stadium gates for non-premium seating will open at 12:30 p.m. Fans must enter via the gate listed on their mobile ticket, and they also must remain in their zones while inside the stadium. |
|
Because of the limited attendance, the area of Gemini Boulevard in front of the Arena will remain open to traffic before, during and after the game. Traffic will continue to flow both ways on North Orion Boulevard during the game. While postgame traffic is exiting campus, vehicles will not be able to turn from McCulloch Road onto North Orion Boulevard. |
|
Students driving to the game should park in Garage H. Parking for other fans is being allocated in the Gold Zone based on the location of their tickets. Parking for fans with disabilities will be on the first floor of Garage C, with shuttle services to Gate 14 starting at 11 a.m. |
|
Overnight parking in the C, D and F garages; in the C, D and E lots; and on East Plaza Drive is prohibited. |
|
Some parking typically reserved for game day purposes will be open parking. Those include Garages C (except for the first floor) and H and the C and D lots. |
|
Because of the limited fan capacity, several campus parking lots and garages will be blocked off and unavailable. They are garages A and I, as well as several of the B and H lots. |
|
For students, game day shuttles will be available for all normally serviced apartment complexes, with the exception of NorthView, Tivoli, and Northgate Lakes due to their close proximity to the stadium. Shuttles will run continuously from noon until two hours after the game ends. |
|
Shuttles are available to and from the UCF Downtown campus and the Rosen College of Hospitality Management. Shuttles will leave from both campuses at noon and will depart from the main campus four hours after kickoff. |
|
Riders will need to show a valid UCF ID prior to boarding any UCF shuttle. |
|
A limited number of ticket packages and single-game ticket options are still available for UCF football games, and can be purchased online. All seating within each zone is general admission, with a maximum occupancy of 25 percent for each section. |
|
Students who won the lottery for tickets for the Tulane game have already been notified. They must show their mobile ticket and student ID at the stadium gates. Students must both win the lottery and claim their ticket in order to be admitted into the stadium. |
|
More information about student tickets is available on the game day web site. |
|
UCF abides by a clear bag policy that limits the size and type of bags that may be brought into all sporting events at the Bounce House. For additional information, please see the arrival section of the Game Day A-Z Guide. |
|
The UCF Bookstores are offering 25% off all sweats and cold-weather gear through Saturday, Oct. 24, at both the John T. Washington Center and Knights Plaza locations. |
