Parking & Transportation

Parking:

  1. The Main Lot is the most convenient. It is a surface pay-to-park lot and located directly across the street. Expect to $30 – $40 for event parking on show nights.
  2. Street Parking is the best value. In downtown Tacoma, it is normally free after 6:00 PM. There is street parking only a few blocks away on St. Helens Ave; however, these spots can disappear quickly. If so, there is also street parking North of the Theatre in the Stadium District or behind the building on Broadway.
  3. Downtown Garage & Lots are also available if you don’t mind walking 4-5 blocks away. The Municipal Lot on 728 market street is open 24 hours.

Transportation:

Skip the parking and use Tacoma’s T Line Light Rail.

  1. Park for free at the Tacoma Dome Station Garage.
  2. Jump on the T Line Light Rail and take it to the Stadium District Station.
  3. From the Station, take a smooth, flat 5-minute walk to the Temple Theatre Entrance.
