TPAC is located in the James K. Polk Cultural Center at 505 Deaderick Street in downtown Nashville. You can find it across from Legislative Plaza and one block from the Tennessee State Capitol. War Memorial Auditorium is located at 301 6th Avenue North.

TPAC offers several nearby parking options which include the following.

Valet Parking

Valet Parking is provided courtesy of LAZ Parking for select events at TPAC. The drop-off and pick-up areas are located on 6th Avenue by the marquee entrance near the corner of Deaderick Street. LAZ Parking attendants begin accepting vehicles two hours before the ticketed event. Due to weekday parking restrictions, valet parking services are not available during weekday matinee performances.

LAZ Parking attendants reserve the right to refuse valet services to vehicles that will not fit in the parking garage spaces due to size restrictions. This includes, but is not limited to large passenger vans, H2 Hummers, and lifted trucks and jeeps.

When Valet parking is available, you will be charged $30, payable to the LAZ cashier located inside the lobby at the Andrew Jackson Hall box office. Unlike valet at a restaurant, cars arrive at the venue at the same time and therefore, are claimed simultaneously at the show’s end. Plan to arrive 45 minutes before the event and, depending on volume, expect a 45-minute wait to claim your car. We appreciate your patience while the valet attendants work through the volume.

Please call the Box Office at 615-782-4040 to verify if valet service will be available at your upcoming event. Events held at War Memorial Auditorium only offer valet parking if another concurrent event is being held inside the main TPAC building.

Partnership Parking

TPAC has a partnership with Lyft that provides discounts for TPAC patrons.

New users can expect $5 off the first two rides when they sign up for Lyft with the code TPAC5.

Other users of Lyft can save 15% off one ride to or from TPAC with the code TPAC15.

Pre-paid Parking

You can pre-pay for parking before an event by visiting the parking information page at https://www.tpac.org/visit/directions-parking/. Pre-paid parking vouchers are date specific and are only available for purchase during the month of your event. TPAC does not offer exchanges or refunds on purchased vouchers. So please verify your performance date before confirming your purchase.

Free Parking

Free self-parking is available from 6:00 pm to 1:00 am CT in the state lots behind the Supreme Court Building (off Dr. Martin L. King Blvd., between 7th & 8th Avenues) on performance nights.

Accessibility Parking

Accessible parking is available on the north side of 6th Avenue (on the War Memorial Auditorium side of the street), between Deaderick Street and Dr. Martin L. King Jr. Blvd., 24 hours, 7 days a week.

Patrons with special needs with tickets to performances in Andrew Jackson Hall may prefer to be dropped off on the corner of Union Street and 6th Avenue.

For performances in the Polk and Johnson Theaters, patrons with special needs may prefer to be dropped off in front of the main entrance to TPAC in the loading zone area on Deaderick Street, near the corner of 5th Avenue.

Complimentary Bus Parking

Groups traveling in buses and 15-passenger or larger vans must notify TPAC Group Sales at the time of your ticket purchase. TPAC will provide a complimentary bus permit allowing you to park close to TPAC on Dr. Martin L. King Jr. Blvd. This permit is to be displayed in the front windshield area of the bus/van.

Passengers may be dropped off, pre-show, on 6th Avenue. Buses/vans will be allowed to stage themselves for post-show passenger pick up on Union Street between 5th and 6th Avenues (parking closest to the corner at 6th is preferred) no earlier than 30 minutes before the end of the performance. For shows in Andrew Jackson Hall, groups should exit the hall from the house right on the Orchestra level.

If a school group is attending a TPAC Education HOT Season for Young People performance, we will provide a HOT bus sign for those traveling in buses and/or 15-passenger or larger vans. Place your bus sign is in the window of the passenger side of the vehicle and look for the bus parkers around the TPAC building to help you park. A TPAC staff member in a red vest or a police officer will greet your bus and instruct you when to unload.
