The Gator Aider Shuttle in 2026: What UF Has Announced So Far
UF is reworking its gameday shuttle program for 2026 - its shuttles page currently says a new program is under development and to check back closer to the season (checked August 5, 2026). Until UF publishes it, here is last season's program, labeled as last season's - so you know exactly what is and is not confirmed.
Last season's three park-and-ride locations
- Celebration Pointe (behind Regal Cinemas, in front of the parking garage)
- UF Park and Ride #2 (behind 3450 Hull Rd)
- UF Health Professional Park (behind 3300 SW Williston Rd)
Do not drive to one of these on faith this season - UF's own shuttles page is the source of record, and right now it says the program is being reworked. We re-check it and update this page.
Last season's tickets and hours
- $20 single game, $100 season - via the GoRTS Fares app or at the lot on gameday.
- Service ran from 3 hours before the game until kickoff, with return shuttles beginning in the 4th quarter.
- Drop-off and pickup: the East Hall parking lot.
Shuttle or driveway?
The shuttle trades money for time: cheap, but you ride on its schedule and queue with the crowd when it ends. A reserved driveway costs more and puts your own car a walk from the gates with no line afterward. On the biggest games - Ole Miss, Oklahoma - many fans do one of each across the season and decide which Saturday deserves which.
