EAST LANSING, Mich. --- Michigan State University Parking Services would like to update the community about new parking changes for the upcoming 2023 MSU Football season. The new changes this season include the following: 

  • Cherry Lane parking is limited due to construction of the MSU Recreational Sports facility 
  • General parking for tailgating is now $30
  • There is a $20 entrance fee to Lot 89/MSU Pavilion with free roundtrip shuttle service 

For the first game of the season on Sep. 1 vs. Central Michigan at 7 p.m., parking lots open at 2 p.m. for donors and 3 p.m. for the public. For the rest of the season, parking lots open at 7 a.m. for games that kickoff between 12 p.m. and 5:30 p.m., and 11 a.m. for night games. All shuttle buses start 2 hours prior to kickoff and run continuously until roughly 2 hours after the game ends.
