Facility Overview
Salt Palace Cascade Parking Corp operates a strategically located downtown parking facility at 276 W 100 S in Salt Lake City, Utah. Situated right along the western perimeter of the Calvin L. Rampton Salt Palace Convention Center and just steps from the Delta Center, this high-demand parking location provides seamless vehicle access for both daily downtown visitors and major event crowds. The site features an open surface parking layout with clear drive aisles and well-marked bays, making it particularly accommodating for a wide spectrum of passenger vehicles.

Visitor & Driver Tips
When attending high-profile events at the Delta Center or major national conventions at the Salt Palace, plan to arrive at least 45 to 60 minutes prior to scheduled start times, as surrounding streets experience heavy pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Ensure your license plate is entered accurately at the payment machine or mobile portal immediately after parking to prevent citations. Drivers navigating during winter months should exercise normal caution during snow clearing operations, and taking a quick photo of your parking stall number and nearest cross street can help streamline your return after dark.
