GREEN GARAGE
The WVU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics and the Greater Morgantown
Convention & Visitors Bureau welcome you to West Virginia University and Greater
Morgantown.
Football season is a special time on the campus at West Virginia University, a proud
member of the Big 12 Conference. Greater Morgantown becomes the largest city in the
state on gamedays and each fall brings exciting new experiences for our Mountaineer
fans, student-athletes and coaches. We are pleased you will have the opportunity to
visit our campus and our beautiful area this season.
Greater Morgantown is a place where spectacular scenery and the fun of a university
town come together naturally. Along with big-time college football, you can enjoy
several indoor and outdoor activities such as: hike a forest trail, raft a wild river, browse
the quaint downtown shops, feast at great restaurants, walk or bike on rail trails,
attend a show or art exhibit or play a scenic round of golf while enjoying mountain
views.
We invite you to make the most of every minute you spend in Mountaineer Country.
Please consider staying a few days extra to experience and enjoy the magnificent fall
foliage, Appalachian heritage, local food and specialty shopping.
As you travel Morgantown to support and cheer on your team, we encourage you
to use this guide to help you better enjoy your game weekend experience. We have
included helpful information on game day parking, shuttle service, fan assistance,
stadium operations and the Greater Morgantown Convention & Visitors Bureau.
Our Convention & Visitors Bureau will be glad to help you with information and ideas
during your visit. You can contact us on our website at www.tourmorgantown.com or
visit one of our three Visitors’ Centers in the area.
