Parking tips when events are taking place at the Abbotsford Centre & at UFV

Plan ahead

On the day

  • Come to campus early.
  • Enter and exit from McKenzie Road.
  • It is recommended that students and employees park in designated (employee/student/public) Lots 1, 2 and 6-10 to avoid the traffic and the crowds during an event. Student and employee e-permits are valid in these lots.
  • Students and employees may park in designated (employee/student/public) Lots 2a, 4 and 5 at regular daily pay parking rates before 4:00 pm and remain parked throughout the evening. If you park after 4:00 pm, you will have to pay the event rate. UFV parking permits are valid in these lots.
  • Students and employee permit holders may park in lot 10b (gravel lot).
  • Students and employees may park on city streets at Gillis Avenue, College Drive, and McKenzie Road at regular daily pay parking rates until 6:00 pm. After 6:00 pm, either move your vehicle or pay the event rate.

Note: UFV student and employee e-permits are not valid on city streets, or at AC's Student/Public Early Bird and Overflow parking lots.

Note: A portion of Lot 7 at the Chilliwack Campus is fenced off for use by the RCMP.
