Ramp Parking (View Map for locations)

The Red (Red Lion), Green (P.A.C.) and Yellow (East on Washington St.) parking garages are pay as you exit and accept cash, credit cards, permits and validated hotel cards.  Rates are listed below.

• $1 – less than 2 hours
• $2 – 2-3 hours
• $3 – 3-4 hours
• $5 – over 4 hours

The Blue (City Center) parking garage has meters, charging the same as on College Avenue with a three hour limit. 

The Purple (Soldier’s Square) parking garage charges $2 with a 3 hour maximum stay.

Suggestions for a speedier exit:

• Carpool to the event.
• Allow extra time and park on the street and walk to the Red Lion Hotel (Check out the Passport Parking App and pay the meter on your Apple or Android phone).
• Consider parking in the Green (PAC) ramp. It also has a skywalk to the hotel and has four exits, opposed to the two exits in the Red (Radisson) ramp.
• If parking in the ramp:
  • Pay for your parking at the walk up kiosk before exiting the ramp.
  • Pay by credit card as you exit. It is much faster than cash.
• The more people that pay at the pay-on-foot machines or use credit cards at the exits, the faster everyone will get out of the ramps.
