Overview & Suitability

The LJVM Coliseum Main Parking Entrance serves as the primary gateway to the expansive parking lots surrounding the Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Winston-Salem. This facility is an open-air surface parking complex designed to accommodate high-volume attendance for sports, concerts, and community events. It is suitable for standard passenger vehicles and light trucks. Please note that parking configurations are subject to change due to ongoing infrastructure improvements related to The Grounds and Deacon Boulevard.

Access & Navigation

Access is provided directly via University Parkway. The layout consists of large, flat asphalt surface lots. While the area is spacious and easy to navigate upon entry, visitors should be aware that exit times may vary depending on the scale of the event, with an average exit score reflecting potential traffic delays following high-attendance performances.

Parking Rates & Booking

Parking rates are event-specific, with a standard gameday fee typically around $10.00. Payment is generally handled by on-site staff upon entry. It is recommended to check official venue communications before arrival, as parking operations may transition to digital ticketing or pre-paid parking systems depending on the specific event requirements.

Security & Amenities

The facility benefits from professional on-site traffic management staff during event hours. The site is situated in a high-visibility location with significant lighting to support evening operations. Being an expansive surface lot, it provides convenient ground-level access to the Coliseum and is also within walking distance of nearby attractions such as Allegacy Stadium.

Strategic Alternatives

This location serves as a strategic parking hub for the surrounding Winston-Salem sports district, including Truist Field. It is a preferred option for those prioritizing proximity to the Coliseum and stadium over more distant off-site parking solutions.
