Visitor & Driver Tips
For the best experience at the Trolley Lot, we recommend the following: Use a GPS-enabled navigation app to pinpoint the entrance on Dickerson Street as downtown traffic patterns can shift. During major events or concert dates, the lot may reach capacity quickly; consider arriving at least 45 minutes prior to your event start time to secure a spot. If the lot utilizes mobile payment apps, we suggest downloading and setting up your payment method in advance to expedite your arrival and avoid queuing at on-site pay stations.
