The parade will continue towards the downtown area and will conclude at Historic Riggs Field around kickoff time. Roads around the downtown area will be closed due to the parade.

Fans attending the game are encouraged to come to the Clemson area by using Perimeter Road, and use the Avenue of Champions or Williamson Road to reach the parking areas for the soccer match. Lots near the football stadium will be used for the overflow crowd.
