CAMPUS PARKING

We highly recommend walking or carpooling, whenever possible. If you are bringing a vehicle to campus, the parking garage nearest to central conference activities is:

For Non-UT Austin Campus Guests only: If you are parking in a campus garage, we will provide one complimentary parking pass per vehicle, per day ($18 value / day). Upon entering the garage, please take a ticket and keep it. When you arrive at registration, please let us know you need a parking pass, which we will then provide. (Keep this pass away from your cell-phone to avoid de-activation.)  Upon exiting the garage, you will be prompted to insert your original ticket. After that, instead of inserting payment, you will insert the pass we've provided for FREE exit. This pass does not allow for re-entry, and guests are limited to one pass per day.
