Getting to the Market

PARKING

Here are some tips for parking at our new location on Auraria Campus:

  • Parking garages have the highest daily rates and will fill up quickly.

  • We recommend surface-lots Holly Lot, Cherry Lot, or Elm Lot for lower rates.

  • Consider parking before 5 pm on MO-TH when rates are lowest.

  • To provide more flexibility, we have extended market hours to 9 pm every day, giving you more time to enjoy the festivities while taking advantage of the reduced parking rates.

​​

Update: The Auraria Campus has thoughtfully adjusted its evening and weekend surface-lot parking rates for our event as of 11/25. These daily rates have been reduced to $15 (40% cost savings). To receive this rate, you must use the Parkmobile app.
