General Basketball Parking Guidelines
Welcome to the 2012-2013 season!
This year, the Princeton University basketball team is scheduled to host 12 home games at Jadwin Gymnasium. (See schedule below.)

Impact of Home Basketball Games on Princeton University Parking Permit Holders
During home basketball games, special restrictions are in place for many parking areas near Jadwin Gymnasium. In order to accommodate parking for fans, several parking areas will be closed to faculty and staff parking permit holders two hours prior to game time. Signs at each parking entrance will denote whether a basketball restriction is in place, as these areas will become "pay-as-you-enter" lots.
Areas impacted include but are not limited to: Lots 4, 5, 14, 21, 25, 26, and Western Way. To view the basketball parking map click here.
On game days, University parking permit holders may move their vehicles to alternative parking areas available in Lots 2, 10, 13, 16, 28 North Garage, and West Garage.
Game Day Parking for Fans
Fans attending basketball games who are not Princeton University parking permit holders may park in the following areas on game day: Lots 4, 5, 21, 25, 26 North and West Garages. To view the basketball parking map click here.
Accessible Parking
Individuals requiring disabled parking may park in the Lot 21/21a disabled parking area. Valid disabled placards and/or tags are required.
Facilities
A chemical toilet is provided by the FitzRandolph Observatory, FitzRandolph Field and Strubing Field for fans' convenience. Fans may prefer to access the restroom facilities in the Jadwin Gym. Restrooms in Jadwin are equipped with modern facilities including hot and cold running water.
Directions
Recorded driving instructions are available for callers with touchtone phones at (609) 258-2222.
