Winston-Salem State University (WSSU) and the WSSU Department of Athletics game day policies have been developed with a focus on providing a safe environment and enjoyable fan experience.

Traffic-Parking Lots:  Winston-Salem State University Police and Public Safety, the City of Winston-Salem Police Departments and the Winston-Salem Department of Transportation have developed traffic patterns for game day that will help attendees enter and exit the stadium’s parking lots as quickly as possible.  Patrons are asked to follow the direction of the Police and Traffic Control.

To assist with the orderly flow of traffic and parking for the game, vehicles parking in “No Parking Zones” or are otherwise illegally parked are subject to ticketing and/or towing.

2018 parking fees:

    All general public parking is $15 per space used, except in the South Parking Lot where it is $25 per space on game days. Homecoming Game (Oct. 20) rates are $30 per space used, except in the South Parking Lot, where it is $40 per space.

    The South Parking Lot is reserved and pre-sold for $100 for the season. Remaining unsold spaces will be sold on day of game for $25 for non-Homecoming Games and $40 for Homecoming. Vehicles must park in the assigned parking space. Towing will be enforced in the South Parking Lot for all games.

    A single vehicle may purchase up to six parking spaces.

    All parking tickets must be displayed on the dashboard. Police and Traffic Control will monitor parking lots to make sure the number of tickets corresponds to the number of spaces used.
