Visitor parking is available at select building locations, with metered and garage options operated through Parking and Transit Services (parking.unl.edu). The site is at 510 Stadium Drive, close to Lincoln’s center, so arriving at a designated visitor facility is more practical than relying on an unmarked campus space.

NIC/UNL permit parking is available at Nebraska Innovation Campus, while Nebraska Innovation Campus permit holders are directed not to use the Passport Parking app (innovate.unl.edu).

Busy Campus Periods and Lincoln Street Rules
Parking pressure rises when designated campus areas are in use, because annual 2024-2025 permits are required in those areas (newsroom.unl.edu). A visitor arriving for a class, meeting, or campus activity should allow time to reach a metered, garage, or specifically identified visitor facility rather than assuming a permit area will be available.
