Visitor & Driver Tips
To ensure a smooth experience, we recommend booking your spot in advance via reputable parking apps if you are a non-resident, as availability can vary. When entering or exiting, please be aware of the high volume of foot traffic and transit activity near the Broadway and Cesar Chavez intersection. If you are planning to attend a sell-out event at a nearby venue like the Walt Disney Concert Hall or Dodger Stadium, aim to arrive well before the scheduled start time to avoid peak traffic congestion. Always confirm any specific height restrictions or vehicle size requirements through your booking provider before arrival.
