May and June means graduations, tournaments, and summer events! If you're headed downtown for any of these, including graduations at Golden 1 Center, reserve your parking ahead of time online. You can save money, as online rates are cheaper than paying at the facility, and avoid the hassle of driving around looking for a spot. Simply click on the link below, find the event you plan to attend, then click on it to view all the parking facilities offering parking reservations for that specific event. There are no extra fees involved with reserving online and you pick your parking spot based on how far you want to walk! Most facilities allow entry up to TWO HOURS prior to the event start time. So, come early and visit a local restaurant or shop our local businesses before heading to your destination. This same link also offers those who work downtown DISCOUNTED daily parking at any of our City-owned garages. This is great if you are in the office for only a few days a week and don't need monthly parking! Purchases may be done 7 days ahead. These are limited by day and facility, so purchase ahead of time for days you plan to work! https://lnkd.in/eMrKESgU
