PARKING
Always allow plenty of time for parking, especially during adverse weather or in the case of significant downtown events. Plan to arrive at the ramp or lot at least 30 minutes before performance time to avoid delay.
Below is a list of nearby parking ramps. Please note, parking fees vary by ramp. Click to view a Minneapolis Convention Center parking map.
Convention Center Ramp (above ground parking) – 3rd Avenue South (RECOMMENDED)
This ramp is nearest to the Auditorium performance venue; however, the ramp is not skyway accessible and there is no drop-off available at the East entrance to the Minneapolis Convention Center (MCC). To get to the Auditorium, walk across 3rd Avenue South and use the outside entrance to the MCC.
Plaza Municipal Ramp (underground parking) – 2nd Avenue & 12th Street
This ramp is nearest to the main entrance and drop-off area of the MCC. Exit the ramp and cross Grant Street directly to the MCC main entrance. The Auditorium performance venue is just a short walk from the entrance– proceed straight ahead as you enter the building. The ramp is skyway accessible; however, please note the skyway route does require additional walk time.
