PARKING

IT CAN GET BUSY ROUND HERE Y’ALL

Sometimes you can park in the Scope garage. Go down to the bottom level and find us in the basement corner. Sometimes there are circuses and symphonies and hockey games, and you’ll have to park in a surrounding lot and walk a block. Sometimes you can find free street parking along Bute and Brambleton.

SEE BELOW for more DETAILED walking & driving instructions.

NOPE, STILL CONFUSED

If you park in the Scope underground garage, go down to the bottom level and all the way into the back corner. Look for the mural. We’re tucked away behind double doors.

If you park elsewhere, go to the main Chrysler Hall box office and go through a red door to either side, go down two flights, and find us in the corner. Not clear enough? Here are some…

IT’S WORTH IT

FIND IT AND FIND OUT

If you’re still lost, maybe this will help…

I’m Driving Into the Scope Parking Garage Entrance

Enter the scope parking garage
Proceed through gate
Stay on the right and go all the way back
Note sign that says “Lower Level Parking,” note the ramp to the right of the sign, drive down that ramp
At the very bottom end of the ramp turn left at the wall
Drive all the way to the very back corner
Look for the mural and the double doors to the basement theater!

PLEASE NOTE: Parking in the Scope Garage may not be available during some performances due to Admiral Hockey and other Chrysler events.

I’m Walking Up to the Chrysler Hall Box Office

The Chrysler Hall Box Office is not our box office. Ours is down in the basement with us. See the aerial view (below). From street level:

Ggo to the main Chrysler Hall box office
Face the ticket windows
Look to your right (or left)
Go through the bright red door and down two flights to the basement level
Head east until you see the artsy mural on the wall and the industrial double doors!

Note: Generic Theater used to have a gated St. Paul’s street entrance, but that is CLOSED as of 2015.
