The Speed Museum Parking Garage is our parking recommendation. If it is full, you can try the (entrance near Starbucks)  Floyd Street Parking Garage.   Please arrive early for your exam in case the parking garage/lot you plan to use is full.  You can also visit U of L's PARKING website to purchase a printable visitors parking permit in advance for the East Brandies lot near the North Information Booth and Davidson Hall.

PLEASE NOTE: On Saturday and Sunday you may park for free in any available parking space on campus except the yellow/orange resident or handicapped spaces. We recommend the red lot between the School of Music and the College of Business. There is a fee to park in the Speed Art Museum Garage on weekends, and discount coupons will not be given.
