Getting there

About 1.2 miles to the Long Center, across the river

Park at 715 Nueces Street, Austin, TX 78701. Gated entry runs 24 hours, so the car is never on a clock that runs out before you are done.

Where to park for The Nutcracker

A matinee lets out into afternoon traffic and an evening show lets out at ten, and either way the car should not be on a clock that runs out first. Our gate does not close, so dinner after the show is a decision you make afterward rather than one the parking makes for you.

Not walking it? Park here and we can help arrange a pedicab from the lot out to the event. It goes one way, lot to event, and we can't help with the ride back. You pay the pedicab driver directly, not ANW. Rides usually run about $15, plus a tip if you'd like.

Event weekend pricing

October special: these rates hold every day from October 1 through October 31, ACL, F1 and UT game days included. Outside October, rates may increase during citywide events (SXSW, ACL, F1, UT football, and Capitol session weekends). We post current pricing at the lot entrance and on this page.
