As the football team begins preparations for the 2024 season, CU Boulder students, faculty and staff should start preparing for campus impacts around the season opening game on Aug. 29.  

With football fall camp scheduled to begin next week, it won’t be long before the Buffaloes hit the gridiron at Folsom Field for the 2024 season, the second under Coach Prime.  

The season opener will take place on Thursday, Aug. 29, at 6 p.m. against North Dakota State and will be nationally televised on ESPN. Since the game will take place on Thursday, there will be significant campus impacts throughout the week. 

Many parking lots immediately surrounding Folsom Field will be closed beginning the evening of Wednesday, Aug. 28, and classrooms in the stadium are likely to close Thursday afternoon. Access to Duane Physics and Gold Biosciences will also be adjusted. There will also be street closures taking place Thursday in advance of that evening’s game.  

More specific details pertaining to parking, stadium access, street closures and alternate bus routes/stops will be communicated in the weeks to come, and all parking impacts will be updated on the Parking Services football information page.
