PARKING

  1. General Parking Information
    One of the many exciting benefits of being a Red Raider Club member is access to priority parking for Football and Basketball.

    As the numbers of fans grow, so does the demand for access to parking or tailgating areas next to the venue. As a thank you to the many loyal annual donors each year, the Red Raider Club issues priority parking passes to many Red Raider Club members.

    For specific parking information, see below or contact the Red Raider Club at (806) 742-1196 or toll free at 1-877-554-3850.

  2. Basketball Parking
    Red Raider Club donors at the Bronze Raider level ($4,000 annual contribution to the Red Raider Scholarship Fund) or higher are eligible to receive one priority parking pass for Red Raider and Lady Raider Basketball. Basketball parking is automatically assigned to qualifying Donors ($4,000 and up) if the Donor has season tickets.

    Donors qualifying for priority Basketball parking are assigned to one of three lots: north, south, or southwest. Assignments are based upon the priority points system and number of Donors qualifying.

    All other basketball parking (PSL and Paid) is sold through the Athletic Ticket Office. You may contact them at (806) 742-4412 or toll free 1-888-GOBIG12 (1-888-462-4412).

  3. Football Parking and Tailgating
    Whether you are an accomplished tailgater, novice tailgater, or just want to get to the Jones to cheer on your Red Raiders, parking is an important component of your game-day experience.

    With average attendance at the Jones of over 50,000, tailgating is at an all time high and the demand for parking around the stadium is paramount. Obviously, the lots surrounding the Jones are unable to accommodate all 50,000 + fans at a home Texas Tech Football game.

    As a benefit of supporting the Red Raider Club, members are able to request priority parking for Football starting at just the $150 donation level. The Red Raider Club will take parking requests from qualified members each year through May 31st. Parking is then assigned in early June based upon priority points. As individual lots are filled to capacity, donors will be relocated to their second or third choice parking lot.

    While we try to assign each Donor to their first choice, some Donors are assigned to their second or third choice parking lot. In this case, the Red Raider Club cannot refund donations or parking permit fees.

    After the May 31st deadline and assigning, any remaining spaces will be issued on a first come, first served basis.

    All donations associated with parking requirements go directly to the Red Raider Scholarship Fund to support academic scholarships for student-athletes.

    *The qualifying factors for football parking eligibility are:

    • You must be a season football ticket holder
    • You must be a current member of the Red Raider Club at the level for the highest priority lot you would like to park or tailgate in (per space).
    • The parking request must be made no later than May 31st prior to each football season.
    • Each parking pass request requires a $100 parking pass fee.
    • All associated donation and parking pass fee requirements must be fulfilled by May 31st.
    • The request must list first choice, second choice, and third choice for assigning purposes.
    *If all of the above qualifications are not met by the May 31st deadline, any associated parking request(s) will be voided.

    Please note:

    Bronze Raider members ($4,000 and up) as well as Stadium Club seat holders and suite holders have reserved parking in the west (C-1) parking lot automatically assigned. There is no need to request their space or pay the $100 parking pass fee each year.

    Any special requests (groups, moves, etc.) need to be made by May 31st each year. This applies to all parking areas.

PRIORITY POINTS SYSTEM
The priority points system is the system utilized by the Red Raider Club to assign benefits that exist in limited quantities, such as post-season play tickets and parking passes.

Your priority points are earned via donations, season tickets, Letterwinner status, and Alumni status as outlined in the points chart below.

Your points are not "cashed" or "spent", but instead accrue through your lifetime.

Priority Points are constantly and automatically being recalculated in our database, with every single ticket upload (nightly) and donation transaction entered. Therefore, each donor's rank is also constantly changing and will not be the exact same from year to year. You can check your points utilizing the online DonorNet site at the following link.
