Where to park

Game day: West Millett lot (enter at Gate 2 off E. Sycamore St), then the lots off Bonham Rd. Card only, staffed.
Season lots: Fryman and East Millett off Bonham Rd, Hannon Park northeast of the stadium, and the M Lot and DISC Lot by Gate 3.
Hannon Park: A grassy season-ticket lot northeast of Yager. Miami calls it great for tailgating.
RV: West Millett lot, enter at Gate 1. Season RV spots (with hookups) are sold out; per-game overflow spots without hookups, except Family Weekend.
Accessible: The northernmost rows of the West Millett lot, through Gate 1, with a state placard or plate. Card only. Shuttles available.
Shuttles: Buses run from the lots to the northwest and south gates of Yager, from about 2 hours before kickoff until 30 minutes after.

Take the shuttle to your lot. Postgame shuttles run from the stadium gates back to the lots until 30 minutes after the game.
Let the app pick the road. Miami points fans to Waze or Google Maps, which update in real time.
Floor it at the gun. Into the same two roads as everybody else in the lot.

Your space: Tailgating stays in a small area around your vehicle. Don't block lanes or the spaces beside you.
Saving spots: Not allowed. Enter the lot together if you want to park together.
Alcohol: Ohio law and City of Oxford rules apply. No outside alcohol into Yager.
Grills: Not posted for 2026. Ask the ticket office before you pack one.
Tents: Not posted for 2026. Keep it inside your small area by the car.
When it ends: Lots close overnight. Shuttles stop 30 minutes after the game.
Smoking: Miami's campuses are smoke and tobacco free, parking lots and your own car included.
