American Airlines Center Parking Tips

How Does Parking Work at American Airlines Center?

When you park at American Airlines Center, you have two basic options:

  • Use an American Airlines Center controlled parking lot or garage (learn more).
  • Use a nearby public parking lot that might be cheaper, but will require a longer walk (learn more).

The public parking lots are not controlled by American Airlines Center and are instead operated by private parking companies. Do not expect the public parking lots to be free. Usually the public parking lots cost in the $7-$12 range, but prices can vary by lot.

If you wish to drive up and pay on site, yes, some of the American Airlines Center controlled parking lots do allow you to pay on site (credit and debit card only). However, reserving a spot in advance always helps reduce hassle on gameday (buy a parking pass).

In the next section we will first discuss how to park in the American Airlines Center controlled lots and garages, and then we will discuss how to park in the public parking areas that are not controlled by American Airlines Center.

American Airlines Center Parking Lots & Garages

American Airlines Center has several surface lots and parking garages located very near to the arena that are actually controlled by American Airlines Center. These lots include:

Some of these lots and garages require a pre-purchased parking pass. Click here to visit the American Airlines Center parking page where you can purchase parking passes for your event.

Parking passes can also be purchased through online ticket broker sites like Ticketmaster, StubHub and Vivid Seats, and through certain parking sites like ParkWhiz and SpotHero. Some of these American Airlines Center Parking Lots also allow you to pay on site on gameday.

American Airlines Center Public Parking Lots

There are also several large parking areas near American Airlines Center that are not controlled by the arena, and are instead operated by private parking companies. Most of these lots are a bit farther away from the arena (think 10-20 minute walk).

Usually the public parking lots cost in the $7-$12 range, but prices can vary by lot. In my experience, these public parking lots do not have a parking attendant. Some lots may allow you to text and pay but many of these lots have a payment kiosk where you can enter applicable information to receive a pass.

For example, a parking lot I used asked me to enter my license plate number upon payment. Here is what one of these parking kiosks looks like.

The main takeaway is expect these public parking areas to be a bit cheaper (but not free), and to require a little bit longer of a walk. It may come down to the decision whether or not you want to pay the extra $15 or $20 for a spot closer to the arena.

This is where you can see the location of these public parking lots near American Airlines Center.
