UT CAMPUS AREA PARKING
- Many of our events are held at the University Center on the UT campus and at the Baker Center on Cumberland Avenue. Parking is available on the street in many cases or in the University Center (UC) garage. To find it from Cumberland Avenue, turn south onto Philip Fulmer Way, a block east of 16th Street. The UC is on the corner and the garage is just beyond the UC on the right. A little farther south is parking lot S-9 at the corner of Andy Holt Ave. and Philip Fulmer Way. This is generally available in the evenings at no cost unless there’s a sporting event or concert. To see a UT map, click UT campus map.
