PARKING OVERVIEW
On-site parking at Legacy Arena is extremely limited. A limited number of parking spaces are reserved for guests requiring accessible parking and for families arriving with strollers. These spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please enter the Legacy Arena parking lot from the Gurley Road entrance.
Due to construction of the new parking deck, fewer on-site parking spaces are available this year. Guests are encouraged to utilize one of the nearby free off-site parking lots, where complimentary DCSS shuttle service will transport attendees directly to Legacy Arena.
FAMILIES WITH STROLLERS, CAR SEATS, OR STROLLER WAGONS
*There are two options available for our families attending with strollers.
(1) Families with strollers may take advantage of the limited parking available directly in front of Legacy Arena.
(2) Someone riding with the family may drop them off directly at the arena’s entrance, with the driver riding the shuttle back to the event.
SHUTTLE SERVICE
Free DCSS shuttles will run continuously between all designated parking lots and Legacy Arena throughout the event. Please proceed to the nearest shuttle pickup area upon arrival.
