Visitor & Driver Tips
We recommend arriving at least 30 minutes before any scheduled event at the Capitol Theatre or local parks to ensure prime placement. While the lot is spacious, high-attendance weekend festivals can cause local traffic, so utilizing GPS-guided arrival via N Garden Ave is suggested. Always check the on-site signage for current parking rates and permit requirements, as pricing may be subject to adjustment during special city-wide events or holidays.
