Facility Overview
Lot 1 Parking is a primary open-air surface parking facility situated in Greenwood Village, Colorado (ZIP code 80111), directly within the lively Denver Tech Center (DTC) corridor and adjacent to the Fiddler\'s Green Amphitheatre event campus. Operating primarily as an event and visitor parking ground, the facility features a flat, paved surface layout designed to handle large surges of traffic efficiently. Because it is an open-air surface lot with no overhead barriers or height restrictions, Lot 1 provides virtually unlimited vertical clearance. This makes it exceptionally well suited not only for standard sedans, compact crossovers, and luxury vehicles, but also for full-size pickup trucks, large SUVs, lifted 4x4s, and high-roof passenger vans that cannot fit into standard covered parking garages.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
Positioned near the intersection of East Peakview Avenue and South Fiddlers Green Circle, Lot 1 Parking is one of the premier designated parking destinations for major outdoor entertainment and corporate business in the southern Denver metro area. Notable nearby attractions include:
- Fiddler\'s Green Amphitheatre: Located just a 2 to 4-minute walk (less than 0.2 miles) away, making it an essential arrival point for concertgoers attending major touring music acts and outdoor performances.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Lot 1 benefits from well-planned suburban arterial connectivity. Ingress and egress points are managed via East Peakview Avenue and surrounding access loops connected to South Fiddlers Green Circle. The lot provides immediate vehicular connectivity to Interstate 25 (I-25) via the Arapahoe Road (State Highway 88) or Orchard Road interchanges, allowing regional commuters and concertgoers from Denver, Aurora, Centennial, and Castle Rock to arrive and depart easily. For public transit travelers, the Regional Transportation District (RTD) Arapahoe at Village Center Station (serving the E Line and R Line light rails) is situated roughly 0.6 miles to the east—approximately a 12 to 15-minute walk or a rapid drop-off ride, offering a convenient alternative to post-event highway traffic.

Visitor & Driver Tips
On concert days, Peakview Avenue and Fiddlers Green Circle experience substantial traffic slowdowns starting 60 to 90 minutes prior to showtime. Drivers are strongly encouraged to arrive well ahead of gate opening times and purchase parking passes in advance via the official event ticketing portal to avoid delays or sold-out turnaways. Following major sellout events, expect brief bottlenecks while local police and parking marshals direct exiting cars onto outward arterials toward I-25. If you prefer to avoid post-concert vehicular traffic altogether, consider parking near the RTD Arapahoe at Village Center Light Rail Station and walking the pedestrian pathway toward the venue.
