Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before kickoff or event start. This gives you time to navigate campus, park, pass through entry, and find your seats without rushing. For bigger games and university events, early arrival helps you avoid last-minute lines and ensures you catch pregame traditions.

Bud and Jackie Sellick Bowl is an outdoor venue, so weather readiness is key — especially during fall and spring. Check the forecast, dress in layers, and consider ponchos or light rain gear if conditions change. Events may be delayed or adjusted due to weather.

Expect a moderate walk from campus lots to the stadium. The Bowl is at ground level, but comfortable footwear is recommended. If you’re using public transit or rideshare, confirm your dropoff point near campus entrances and follow posted event signage to the gates.

Pre-Event Planning

Build in extra time to explore Butler University’s picturesque campus before your event. In the fall, the grounds offer especially scenic views, and the walk from nearby lots to the stadium sets the tone for a classic college game day. Early arrival also makes it easier to grab concessions and browse Bulldogs merchandise.

If you’re attending with a group, choose a clear meetup point near Hinkle Fieldhouse or by a designated campus entrance so everyone can connect before heading in. Keep an eye on Butler University’s event parking guidance for any lot changes or updates.
