The Complete Guide to Blacksburg Gameday Parking
Official campus lots, private driveways, downtown garages, and tailgating spots — everything you need to know about parking for a Virginia Tech football game.
On Virginia Tech gamedays, park your car in official campus lots or use downtown and private spots. Public campus parking usually costs $30 and must be paid via the ParkMobile app. These lots fill up quickly, so arrive early.
