Any prohibited item discovered inside the stadium is subject to confiscation.

A ‘clear bag’ policy will be enforced. Bank of America Stadium encourages fans to refrain from bringing any type of bag to the game.

  • Bags that are clear plastic, vinyl or PVC and do not exceed 12″ x 6″ x 12.”

  • Small clutch bags, approximately the size of a hand, or 4.5″ x 6.5″ with or without a handle or strap, may be carried into the stadium along with one of the clear bag options.

An exception will be made for medically necessary items after proper inspection at the gate.

Tailgating

Tailgating activities can create special risks to public safety due to the use of multiple open-flame cooking devices in close proximity to people, vehicles, buildings, structures and flammable materials. Follow these guidelines if you’re planning to tailgate:

  • Open-flame cooking devices shall not be operated within 25 feet of any building or structure and not within 10 feet of any motor vehicle.
  • A minimum clearance of 10 feet shall be maintained between any open-flame cooking device and dry vegetation, combustible materials, trash dumpsters or receptacles, or in close proximity to anything that can create a fire hazard.
  • Any parking area or lot being used for parking and tailgating activities shall be provided with metal containers for the safe disposal of coals, cinders or hot ashes. Containers shall be clearly labeled “For Coal and Ash Disposal Only.” Any other trash receptacle or container shall not be used for such purpose.
  • Every effort shall be made to ensure that any coals or cinders are extinguished prior to disposal.
  • Open-flame cooking devices shall be attended at all times and shall not be used in parking decks or in any manner that will impede pedestrian or vehicle traffic.
  • Any other type of outdoor burning or open fire, which is not part of a cooking device, is strictly prohibited.

Duke’s Mayo Classic Events

This information will be available the summer of 2024.

Parking & Travel

Getting around Charlotte for Duke’s Mayo Classic events is easy. You’ll enjoy the walkability of Uptown and the close proximity of hotels, restaurants and the venues where game events take place. There are more than 30,000 parking spaces located within five blocks of Bank of America Stadium.

Here’s how to make your transportation and parking experiences convenient.


Public Transportation

Duke’s Mayo Classic attendees are encouraged to use public transportation, operated by Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS). This system includes buses, the LYNX light rail service and the CityLYNX streetcar line. Learn more about CATS and its routes.

Legacy Union Parking

The Seven20 Garage is located at 720 S. Church Street, directly across from the Lowe’s Gate Entrance at Bank of America Stadium. Open flames and tents are NOT allowed in the parking deck. All parking passes for this lot are mobile passes.

 

Reserved Parking

We recommend booking convenient and affordable parking in advance through SpotHero, the nation’s leading parking reservations app.

To reserve your parking spot for the Duke’s Mayo Classic, visit the
Bank of America Stadium SpotHero Parking Page and book a spot with rates up to 50% off drive-up.

Drop-Off Zone and Parking for Fans with Disabilities

Those with disabilities who need a drop-off point close to the stadium can use a lane in westbound Morehead Street as it approaches Mint Street, open to vehicles with handicap placards. It will be marked by orange cones. There is a curb cut at the corner and two driveway cuts along Morehead Street for wheelchair access.

To get to the stadium from the drop-off, simply go to the corner of Mint and Morehead streets. Proceed to the right on Mint Street and go under the highway overpass for Interstate 277. The stadium grounds will be on your left after you pass under the overpass. Your ticket will indicate the gate closest to your seat, but you can enter at any gate.

Please keep this drop-off location in mind as you purchase parking. Post-game traffic can be very heavy, and if the driver is parked in an area to the north of the stadium accessing the handicap lane for pick-up can be very time consuming.

Bank of America Stadium does not have reserved handicap parking on stadium grounds, but it has a limited number of spaces allocated for accessible parking in Lot 1, also known as the Mint Street Parking Facility, located at the corner of Mint and Graham streets and directly across from the stadium’s North Gate. Parking for fans with disabilities is available on a first-come, first-served basis for vehicles displaying a handicap placard. This location offers convenience and ease, with three entrances and exits. Grilling and open flames are prohibited in this parking lot.

Lot 1 parking passes are available for purchase.
