Community/Visitor Permit Event Parking Options

Explore the closest evening/weekend parking options for popular campus event venues with the Community/Visitor parking permit.

See below for the closest evening/weekend parking options for popular campus event venues with the Community/Visitor parking permit:

Note: For those who wish to park in closer event lots that are not available with this permit, such as Stadium West and Jordan East for evening/weekend Bryce Jordan Center and Pegula Ice Arena events, Nittany Deck for Rec Hall events, and Eisenhower Deck for Eisenhower Auditorium events, parking prepayment through ParkMobile or payment of the day-of-event rate will be required, if available. Discounted prepaid parking for many special events is available through ParkMobile, including season parking packages for select Penn State Intercollegiate Athletics teams. To ease the transition between the Commuter permit and new Community Visitor permit, midseason parking passes for men’s and women’s basketball as well as men’s hockey are available on ParkMobile.
