Wayne State Athletics Fan Policy and Initiatives

Everything You Need to Know Before Coming to a Wayne State Athletics Event this Fall.


Before heading down to a Wayne State Warriors football or volleyball game, please review the following fan policy and initiatives.

Team Shop
The Wayne State Fieldhouse Team Shop provides both Wayne State Athletics and Motor City Cruise merchandise.  The Team Store opens at the same time the doors open for entry into the game.

Digital Tickets
Changes have been made to our ticket operations to limit contact between guests and colleagues.  Fans can skip the line and purchase digital tickets at wsuathletics.com/tickets.  In addition, tickets will now be scanned for all fans.  WSU Athletics strongly suggests purchasing contactless tickets prior to the game.  The Warrior Box Office accepts all major debit/credit cards.  The Box Office will open two (2) hours before the game.  Player/Coach guest tickets will be available starting two hours before the game.  Gates & doors open one (1) hour before the game at all athletic ticketed events.

Parking
Parking is free in Lot 50 on gamedays.  Lot 50 opens three hours prior to the game.  Please limit one parking space per vehicle.  For football games, fans should plan to arrive at Tom Adams Field early on gameday to tailgate with us.  Please note, Lot 50 usually reaches capacity about two hours before game time.  Overflow parking is available across the Lodge in Parking Structure 2 for $8.50 (prices are subject to change by WSU Parking).  Fans can take the footbridge outside of Structure 2 over to the Athletic Campus.  Fans who park in the University Foods parking lot are subject to be towed per University Foods policy and postings.  WSU Athletics is not responsible if your car is towed out of the University Foods parking lot.

Bag Policy
Wayne State Athletics has adopted a no bag policy.  Exceptions to this policy include bags needed due to a medical necessity including diaper bags, breast pumps, and other medical devices.  Single compartment wallets smaller than 5" x 7" x 1.5" , with or without a handle or a strap are permitted.  Strollers are also permitted.
