RALEIGH, N.C. – Wake Forest fans traveling to Raleigh for the team's road Big Four contest should be aware of gameday initiatives and policies in place at and around Carter-Finley Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for Noon ET on Saturday, Oct. 5.
Gameday Timeline
Mobile Tickets
It's important that you download your tickets prior to arriving at the stadium since cell signals may be limited near the stadium. This will not impact tickets already in your wallet. Download your mobile tickets to avoid issues on game day.
Construction Near Stadium
Local construction may impact travel to and from the stadium on gameday. Make game day as enjoyable as possible! Plan your route to and from the stadium ahead of time by checking out the stadium area parking and driving information.
Due to the NCDOT construction along Blue Ridge, Hillsborough, I-440 and Wade traffic patterns will be changing throughout the season. Please utilize a directions app (Waze or Google Maps) to ensure the quickest route to the stadium. Post game please be patient. Due to capacity crowds and road construction detours, we anticipate it will take longer leaving after the game than it has in traditional years. Learn more about the Blue Ridge & Hillsborough Road Construction.
