Hello everyone, I am headed to my first Trailblazers game tonight and am wondering about parking. Online it says all the garages are sold out. Where would be the best place to park? I live 40 minutes away from Portland so can't do public transportation. Thanks for your help!
North of moda there are street spots readily available. 15 min walk and a fast getaway. Just north of the bridge along i5
I always park on side streets just north of the Shell station/Toyota dealership on Broadway & Williams avenue. The streets are called Tillamook, San Rafael, Hancock, always plenty of spots back there. It's about an 8 block walk to the Moda Center.
If no one picks up my tickets, you can have my parking pass for the annex garage. Edit: These have been claimed and the parking pass is no longer available. Sorry.
when I do go to the Moda (for other events) I park near the red robin, usually near 3rd and Clackamas. Not only is it a close walk, it usually only costs like 2-3 bucks by the time the meter shuts off for the day.
There's a spot north of the VMC where you can park and just walk up the hill (by PPS) and it's free and technically closer. But anything lloyd center-ish isn't terrible, but much less people to wade through with the PPS admin building spot, IMO. I saw a parking place that was $60 and you're not even by the moda center exit on I-5. That was a fucking robbery.
I actually parked at 3rd and Clackamas on Tuesday, and the meters now go until 10pm on event days, at $3/hour.
Plenty of street parking around the RG if you know where to go, I usually come off I-5 SB and make two quick rights like I was going to the Nike store and there is almost always something on those streets just a handful of blocks away. Back when we had season tickets it was parking at Lloyd Center and a walk down the hill that took less than 10 minutes. Don't think I've ever paid for parking for any event at the Rose Quarter.
