Parking Information

The Donald W. Reynolds Performing Arts Center (formerly Holmberg Hall) is located at the north end of the North (Parrington) Oval on the OU campus, just south of Boyd Street.

Park and Ride: Using the on-campus mass-transit CART system
Plan to come early to use this option; times are an estimate. Park at the National Weather Center or Lloyd Noble Center and catch the trolley or bus to the South (Van Vleet) Oval, and then walk to the Reynolds Performing Arts Center. CART fare is 50 cents in each direction and exact change is required.

Lloyd Noble: CART departs from the north end of the parking lot every 10 minutes – :10, :20, :30, :40, :50 and :00 past the hour. It takes 10 minutes to the main CART point on the north end of the South Oval. From there it is a 10-minute walk to Reynolds PAC.

Weather Center: CART departs from the Weather Center parking lot at :05, :25 and :45 of each hour. It is a 20 minute ride to the main CART point on the north end of the South Oval. From there it is a 10-minute walk to Reynolds PAC.

Park and Walk

From the Duck Pond Parking lot on Brooks Street – This is a multipurpose lot and will not be ticketed during the broadcast. It is about a 25-minute walk to the Reynolds Performing Arts Center at the north end of the North Oval.
