TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY, Texas (KBTX) – The Mexico vs. Brazil football game will take place Saturday, with some changes implemented that will make the event a little different from Aggie Gamedays.
Below is your match guide for the football match, answering frequently asked questions.
Parking and shuttle services
On-campus parking is available by reservation, which can cost between $25 and $45. Paid street parking is also available throughout the city of College Station at a rate of $25 per car. These spaces are available in the Southside Historic District, City Hall, Post Oak Mall, Wayne Smith Baseball Field Parking Lot, and Lincoln Center Surface Parking Lot.
Free parking can be found at the Century Square parking lot, where a shuttle to and from Kyle Field will be available for visitors. Although downtown Bryan will experience street closures along portions of Main Street and 24th Street for Festa Italiana, free street parking is still available on a first-come, first-served basis. Additional parking can be found at the Roy Kelly Garage for a small additional fee. The game day shuttle from downtown Bryan will operate as normal.
Tailgating
Texas A&M University officials said there will be no spots available for people to reserve at Aggie Park. Instead, Aggie Park will host the Futbol Fiesta from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., which will feature food trucks, games and entertainment for all ages.
