Once again, there are no access restrictions for those travelling to and from campus on foot or by bike or bus. Those students, staff and faculty members travelling to campus by car between 6:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. will require a valid U of M parking permit and must enter via Kings Drive.

If you are unsure where the Kings Drive entrance is located, or how to access it, please follow this link to view a detailed map: http://goo.gl/maps/rh4qI Those with a U of M parking permit can use any of the following lots, regardless of the letter that appears on their pass: - A Lot - B Lot - L Lot - AC Lot (southeast corner of Freedman Crescent) - CTC Lot at the Crop Technology Centre - D Lot (June-August only) - R Lot (June-August only) For more information about access to campus and parking on event days, please visit http://investorsgroupfield.ca/ Thank you for your continued patience and support as we navigate this opening season at Investors Group Field.

Having superior spaces like Investors Group Field serve the students, staff and faculty of our university, making for a more dynamic, innovative and community-focused campus.
