Plan Your Arrival

Visitors to the George W. Bush Presidential Center may park in the Bush Center visitor parking lot located just north of the Bush Center. Parking is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Important note: Bush Center’s visitor parking lot is used for SMU game day parking, so guests attending the SMU v. Baylor game after the meet and greet will be charged the $50 game day rate

A parking attendant will be present to facilitate parking payments.
