Parking tips

1 SunTran and the Modern Streetcar are excellent alternatives to driving to the festival — or carpool. 

2 Don’t park in the nearby neighborhoods. You’ll have to walk farther, and you just might get a ticket. 

3 Meters that are covered in blue bags and fire zones are off-limits. Unless you have the proper permit, spots that require service and handicapped permits are off limits, too.

4 A UA disabled permit is not needed on weekends. A state permit is sufficient to park in spaces for those with disabilities. 

5 Find a dynamic interactive parking map at uarrive.arizona.edu. This mobile-focused application provides parking and transportation information designed to help users locate anything and everything parking-related on campus.
