Take the Light Rail!
We strongly urge attendees to consider taking the RTD light-rail. Light-rail tickets are very affordable (~$4.00 round-trip), and parking is free at any of Park n' Rides.

In addition, the RTD light-rail can drop attendees off at the door of the Colorado Convention Center, at the corner of 14th and Champa St.

The area of town from which you will travel, will determine which line you take. However, all attendees want to eventually board either the Green (D), the Red (F), or the Blue (H) line. All three of these lines will stop in front of the Convention Center.

Parking Options:
Colorado Convention Center:
The Colorado Convention Center provides onsite parking in their 1,000 space parking garage. Tickets cost $10 for the day; tickets must be purchased and validated upon entry. CAUTION: Validation has caused frustration for past attendees due to long lines at automated payment kiosks and elevators; if pressed for time, we strongly suggest alternative options listed below.

Other Parking Lots:
There are various other street-level parking lots within a two block radius of the convention center. We recommend exploring the dozens of paid parking lots stretching from Champa Street to Tremont Street, all along the 14th and 15th Streets.

All lots average $10 daily rates.
