Parking Information and Directions to the
UC Irvine University Club
using an IRUS Parking Permit

If this is your first visit to the UCI campus, you should be aware that it is not easy to figure out the campus. We recommend that you get a map with building numbers.

The University Club (UClub) has its own parking lot (18B). You do not need a permit to park in this lot. However, this lot is small and fills up quickly. In addition, you can only park there for the duration of the meeting. If you have other plans on campus, you will have to move your car (they will ticket).

To be safe, you should bring an IRUS permit with you in case lot 18B is full or you need to stay on campus after the meeting. Corporate sponsors should obtain a preferred IRUS parking permit from your corporate representative prior to the meeting.

Plan to arrive at least 30 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space, and to walk to the University Club.
