SPECIAL PARKING GUIDELINES DUE TO CONSTRUCTION

Click on the map below for a detailed view of the parking situation at Ankeny Stadium. We ask that all fans enter the VIP and Spectator Parking areas using NW Briargate Drive from the north or into the school lot from the south off NW 9th Street (the continuation of NW Briargate Dr). THERE WILL BE NO FAN ACCESS TO THE PARKING AREAS FROM NORTH ANKENY BOULEVARD. At the end of the evening, all fans should exit the school grounds by going south onto NW 9th Street. All drum corps vehicles will be leaving southbound on North Ankeny Blvd. so expect that traffic there will be very congested. Avoid North Ankeny Blvd. as much as possible. Thank you!
