Due to the Fall Commencement hosted at the Bren Events Center, parking facilities around the west side of campus will be impacted on Monday, December 15, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Traffic directors will be on-site to facilitate traffic flow; however, please anticipate additional travel time and plan to arrive early so that you may reach your destination on time.

Reserve your spot on our complimentary Holiday Shuttle for the upcoming winter break! Service will run between the main campus and John Wayne Airport or the Irvine Transportation Center (Metrolink/Amtrak Station).

UCI Transportation is proud to launch MuseumConnect, a complimentary, wheelchair-accessible shuttle service connecting campus affiliates to the UC Irvine Langson Orange County Museum of Art, beginning Wednesday, November 12. Services will run Wednesday through Friday, offering two round-trips each day, giving visitors 1.5 hours to explore the museum’s exhibits. Book your next museum visit today!

A valid parking permit is required at all times when parking on campus. UC Irvine affiliates can purchase permits through their myCommute account. Visitors may use ParkbyPlate in designated areas, a permit dispenser, or a staffed information kiosk to purchase their permit.
