Where to Park and Tailgate Before a UGA Football Game

Top Tailgate Spots on the  UGA Campus:

UGA has announced restrictions on tailgating in 2020. Please check out off-campus spots instead.

• UGA's Historic North Campus and Herty Field: You'll be near where it all began, as Herty Field is the site of the early UGA football games. Movers & shakers wine and dine and socialize here. It's beautiful, and shady, and due to the historic nature has some tighter regulations on noise and trash than some other spots. This is a good spot for families.

• Central Campus: There's reserved parking and prepaid tailgate services for those who don't want to pack all their own gear. 
   
• South Campus: With plenty of room to spread out, some of the largest and oldest tailgate groups have staked their claim in these spots for years and years. Music and tv broadcasts of other games vie for attention with grilling and cornhole.
   
• Intramural Fields: Many RVers love this area, as well as others who like plenty of space and a shuttle to and from the stadium. Tip: These are some of the last-to-fill-up spots for those who don't have season parking, and the shuttles are very convenient back to the parking lot, which in turn is right next to the Bypass for an easy escape after the game.
