Parking for St. Paddy's Day

In an effort to be a good neighbor to our mid-town hosts, we’ve asked for area property owners to consider opening their parking facilities to the general public for the Parade. If you’re coming to the Parade, we ask that you consider using one of the parking facilities listed below or use public transportation. Some of the lots are free while others are charging a fee. For many of those charging a fee, the proceeds are going to good causes.

For an overview of the locations, use our Parade Route Google Map.
