Tailgating is a longstanding tradition at the University of Virginia. That being said, Virginia’s tailgating isn’t built on limited-access corporate tents and large “club” tailgates taking up an entire parking lot.

Unfortunately, the actions of some have made the gameday experience a poor one for others. To rectify this, Wahoo fans are asked to adhere to a few regulations on gameday. Rest assured, legal and responsible consumption of alcohol will not be affected by these regulations, so be smart and enjoy the day. The gameday regulations are centered on three main goals:

1. Enhance the gameday experience
2. Make sure gamedays are safe for everyone
3. Preserve the beauty of the University of Virgina Grounds

While these changes won’t directly impact most fans, it is our hope that everyone will enjoy an improved gameday experience and a safer, more family-friendly environment.

Tailgating Regulations:

• No tailgating setups before 8:00 AM on Saturday.
• The University of Virginia is an institution of higher education for more than 20,000 students. No one wants someone tailgating in their neighborhood before 8:00 AM. Grounds are the “neighborhood” for Virginia students, and we hope our fans will respect that.
• Unauthorized use of UVA resources (power and cable hookups) is prohibited .
• Fans who want to watch television or use other entertainment devices that require electricity are allowed to do so as long as they provide their own power and video source.

In addition to the regulations, the University is taking measures to make the day more enjoyable for fans of all ages:

• Provide more portable toilet facilities. When you gotta go, you gotta go. That is why there will be more portable toilets around the campus on gamedays.
• Provide more trash receptacles. Students and local residents are left to face the aftermath of gamedays, while many fans leave town and are not aware of the clean up that takes place. To alleviate this problem, more trash receptacles will be placed in heavy-traffic areas around the stadium and parking lots. We ask that you please bag your trash and either take it with you or leave it at your tailgating area

Corporate/Professional Tailgates

Recently, there has been a large number of corporate tailgates popping up around Grounds. In addition to violating both state and local laws, these tailgates take up large amounts of space, pushing others farther away from the stadium and taking up prime tailgating spaces for regular fans. For that reason, those who wish to organize corporate tailgates should contact Virginia Sports Properties at 434-98205632 for information concerning designated corporate areas.
