Athletic Event Parking

Please review important parking information by athletic event below.

 

Football Event Day Parking


During the football season, all vehicles (including resident permits: SRF/SR-2, TSR-2 and SGS-2), must be moved off the Chestnut Hill Campus by 11:00 p.m. the evening prior to scheduled home football games. Students with resident permitted vehicles (SRF/SR-2, TSR-2 and SGS-2) may park on the Newton Campus for home football games. Vehicles remaining on the Chestnut Hill Campus after midnight will be towed at the owner's expense. Parking in the neighborhoods surrounding Boston College will also result in towing.

Parking for the game is by athletics permit only on BC grounds. Offsite satellite parking is available in Newton (885 Centre St, Newton 02459), and Chestnut Hill (300 Hammond Pond Parkway, Chestnut Hill 02467).
