Question

How early should I arrive to park for a Broadway show?

You should arrive at least 40 to 60 minutes before a Broadway show to find good parking and reach the theatre on time.

Broadway theaters are mainly located in Times Square and the Theater District, so traffic will be heavy and parking in high demand, especially during evening showtimes. Most shows start around 7:00 or 8:00 p.m., and many parking lots fill up quickly between 6:00 and 7:30 p.m.

Arriving about an hour before the showtime gives you enough time to locate a parking lot, walk to the theater, and comfortably settle in before the show starts. If you are parking a few blocks from the theater, it is best to plan your arrival 60 to 70 minutes early.

If you book parking with Way, your spot will be reserved in advance, making it easier to enjoy the show during peak hours. It can save time since you won’t have to search for parking or arrive too early.
