You will be responsible for all parking expenses. Parking is located in the Aggie Terrace (west of the Quad) or the Parking Terrace north of the Taggart Student Center. The cost per terrace is approximately $1.50 per hour or $7.50 per day in the structure. Parking on sidewalks is not allowed. For all questions related to parking, please visit parking.usu.edu or stop by the Visitor Information Center at 600 North 700 East.

Check-in

Check-in is on Wednesday, September 2, 2026. You will be assigned a check-in time based on the location of your booth. If you have not checked in by 10:00 a.m., your table will be given away.

Set-up

The Day on the Quad Event begins at 10:00 a.m. You will be assigned a specific space for your club/organization’s booth including one table and two chairs. You will not be allowed to relocate to a different space. No electricity is available on the Quad. Day on the Quad will happen rain or shine.

Load-In, Load-Out

Because of time and space restrictions surrounding the Quad we encourage all club/organizations to plan their load-in and load-out accordingly to limit congestion surrounding the Quad. If possible, please park in designated visitor areas and walk your supplies to your booth location. If you require additional assistance, the load-in/out location will be in the Quad drop-off area (400 North) on the East side of the Quad, by the Agriculture building. When you arrive, your needs will be assessed at which time a USU employee may allow you to be on the sidewalk if they see a need. There is a one load limit. Plan on at least two individuals in your party helping with check-in since someone must always remain in your vehicle. You cannot park your car and leave it, so plan accordingly. Please visit a parking.usu.edu for a downloadable map.

Selling Food/Merchandise

If you plan on selling food or merchandise at Day on the Quad we will provide you with a Special Event Permit tax form that you will be responsible for filling out and turning in to the state. Food trucks are the exception as they are considered a licensed business and will not need a Special Event Permit.

Clean Up

Day on the Quad ends at 3:00 p.m. You will be responsible to remove any items and garbage from your booth area, as well as folding up your table and returning it to the designated area. Please leave the space as clean as you found it.
