Visitor & Driver Tips
Morning rush-hour arrivals (between 8:00 AM and 9:30 AM) experience peak entry volume, so arriving slightly earlier ensures easier access to preferred lower levels. Theater patrons should check event performance schedules and consider prepaying or reserving parking through digital apps to avoid waiting at automated payment pay stations upon departure. Keep your physical ticket or digital confirmation handy, and ensure all interior vehicle valuables are out of sight before heading to the elevator lobby.
