Event Parking
A flat rate fee of $25.00 may be assessed upon entry to the parking facilities during Convention Center and/or Arena events as deemed necessary by the Parking Manager. Prices subject to change based on demand. During Premium Events, event rates may be increased up to $30.00.
The following rules apply with all event parking fees:
- There are no in and out privileges.
- The charge is per space used at the location. (Fees doubled for vehicles using two spaces, etc.)
- Vehicles that stay past 6am the following day of an “Event” entry will be responsible for additional charges calculated on the regular daily parking rates. Charged per space.
Oversized Vehicles: Defined as any vehicle that requires more than one parking space or exceeds the posted height clearance. ALL “Oversized” vehicles are directed to our East Lot location. These vehicles include buses, box trucks, vehicles with a trailer, delivery trucks and tractor-trailers. Oversized vehicles are charged on a per-space basis. For example, “school buses” are charged for two (2) spaces and “charter buses” for three (3) spaces.
Transient Oversized vehicle rates are equal to the duration of stay based on the entry ticket multiplied by the number of spaces utilized.
Oversized vehicle rates are as follows:
- Standard Oversized Vehicles are charged $35.00 x # of spaces used (or impacted due to vehicle parking) x # of days on site. (Minimum charge $70.00 plus administrative fee if billed per vehicle per day)
- School busses $20/Day during School Events at the GCCC. Otherwise, standard oversized rates apply.
