ECU football parking and rideshare

How 2026 digital passes work, where to pay to park, and where Uber and Lyft drop you off.

Updated October 29, 2026Facts linked to their sources

Short answer

Without a pass, park in the public pay lot at Belk for $20 per car, card only. Fans with an ADA placard and no pass can pay $20 at the Christenbury Memorial Gymnasium lot and ride the ADA shuttle to the stadium. Rideshare drop-off and pickup is on 14th Street between Elm Street and Berkley Road (ECU 2026 game day guide).

Digital parking passes (2026)

  1. Add the pass before you leave

    Passes live in your ECU ticket account. Add yours to your phone’s wallet at home; signal near the stadium can be slow.

  2. Scan at the lot entrance

    The attendant scans the pass and hands you a printout with your space number. Put it on the dashboard where it can be read.

  3. Stay put

    Each pass is good for one entry. Once scanned there is no re-entry, and screenshots do not work.

  4. Transfer instead of sharing

    If someone else is driving, transfer the pass through your ticket account.
