The Iowa Athletics Department is in for a busy weekend.
The women’s basketball team opens up its regular season on Friday against Oral Roberts at 6 p.m., followed by the men’s team at 8:45 p.m. against Kennesaw State in the Carver-Hawkeye.
The next day, the Iowa football team welcomes Michigan to Kinnick Stadium for a night game, which will be nationally televised.
All of this means parking will be somewhat of a mess in and around Kinnick and Carver-Hawkeye.
With that in mind, the Athletics Department released information on this weekend’s parking:
Women’s basketball: No parking available in Lots 33 or 75, which are reserved for men’s basketball parking pass holders who are displaced by football RV parking pass holders.
Public parking can be found for free at the Finkbine Commuter lot, 43N, 43W, and 43NW. ADA parking will be available in Lot 33 if you can display the required state-issued ADA placard.
Men’s basketball: No parking available in Lot 75, because there will be football RV parking pass holders in that lot. Public parking can be found at Finkbine Commuter, 43N, 43W, and 43NW for $5.
There will be no public parking or shuttle service from Hancher Auditorium, because there is an event scheduled for Friday night there. However, there will be a Cambus running from downtown that will drop fans off a block east of Carver-Hawkeye.
Football: There will be no football parking available prior to 7:30 p.m. Friday. People who have parking passes can access their normal lots between 7:30-11 p.m. on Friday, just like they have all season.
Fans with a football parking pass that are hoping to go to either the women’s or men’s basketball games will not be able to leave the lot after they have entered it.
