Visitor & Driver Tips
When heading to Downtown Evansville during major arena events or weekend concerts, plan to arrive 30 to 45 minutes ahead of schedule to comfortably navigate local street turnings and pedestrian flows. Check all posted on-site signage upon arrival for specific parking rules, designated visitor spots, or reserved spaces. If you are entering the area from the Lloyd Expressway, exiting at Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard provides the smoothest route directly toward Court Street.
