Parking

Flat parking lot is located on the North side of the building. The loading dock can accomodate three (3) trucks at one time but the fire lane (closest truck to the building) must be cleared by door time, due to fire code restictions. The fire lane can be filled once the show is over. Check with the production manager about this restriction.

The parking lot can accomodate two semi-trucks and three buses. Additional parking is located across the street, approx. 150 feet away. Parking for 2 buses is also available in the south alley along the Music Hall. Prior arrangements for this parking area must be made with the Production Manager.

For guests attending an event, the state parking garage located on Nueces Street between 3rd and 4th Street is $5.00 after 6 pm Monday thru Friday and all day Saturday and Sunday.
