Due to new construction around Salt River Fields, parking spaces have been shuffled. We advise using our rideshare partner, Lyft, to ensure stress-free trip

PARKING INFORMATION

Parking will be free, but limited at Salt River Fields. We highly recommend carpooling or taking alternative transportation to the festival. Come early for free onsite parking or take advantage of additional free parking lots near the festival grounds with a fast and free shuttle service to the festival entrance.

If parking on lots on the other side of the stadium, please note that the stadium will be open to allow for easy pass-through (see yellow dotted lines on map). Friendly staff will also be on hand to help direct you where to go. Golf cart transportation will be available on a limited basis.

SHUTTLE SERVICE AVAILABLE

A free shuttle is available from the nearby Pavilions Shopping Center and offering roundtrip service constantly all weekend. Park near Hobby Lobby and Michael’s and walk to the pick-up point. You’ll see a tent labeled “Shuttle Pick Up.”

DISABLED PARKING

The “Home Plate Parking Lot” is dedicated to handicap parking. It is located just south of the main gate. Please alert parking attendants upon arrival. This parking fills up fast, so we advise arriving at the festival early or later, not during peak hours.
