Visitor & Driver Tips

To ensure a stress-free experience, consider these tips: Always plan to arrive at least 60 to 90 minutes before major USC games or concerts to navigate the local surge in traffic. While the garage provides ample space, pre-booking your spot through parking aggregator apps can often secure you a better rate and guarantee entry during sold-out events. Ensure your GPS is set correctly to the 32nd Street entrance to avoid navigating through restricted campus side streets. Always keep your payment method ready to expedite the exit process after large events.
