Where should I park for Arena events?

More parking information will be available in 2013 including parking fees. There will be at least one new parking garage on location as well as several surface lots making parking convenient. While some of the parking will be reserved for premium seating ticket holders, there is the potential of 5,000 or more stalls near the arena. In addition, there will be a Festival Parking area south of the public works building near Haymarket Park. A new pedestrian bridge will come from the Festival Parking area and will land at the northeast corner of the arena, approximately 28 feet off the ground, and also connect to the east side at ground level as well.
