Cheapest parking for Rockies games
To beat the official lot prices, here's the playbook:
- Pre-book on SpotHero or ParkWhiz: Lots 3–5 blocks from Coors Field list pre-paid spots for $8–$15 — often half the price of official lots. The walk takes under 10 minutes and the savings are real. Book at least the day before; popular games sell out.
- Blake Street corridor: Several independently operated garages on Blake, Wazee, and Larimer Streets charge $12–$22 for event parking. They fill up, but later than the official lots.
- Sunday games = free street parking: The Rockies play a lot of Sunday afternoon games. Denver meters are free citywide on Sundays — walk from free street parking near Capitol Hill or Five Points if you don't mind a 15-minute walk.
- Arrive 90+ minutes early: Street spots adjacent to Coors Field are legally parked during early afternoon — they only become "game day" premium after lots fill up. Early arrivals get better selection at better prices.
How to get to Coors Field without parking
Coors Field is exceptionally well-served by Denver's transit network. You don't need a car:
- RTD Light Rail: Multiple light rail lines stop at Union Station (W, E, and R lines) and the downtown 16th Street stations. Union Station is a 5–10 minute walk east to Coors Field at 20th & Blake. Game-day trains are more frequent — expect full cars post-game but quick service.
- RTD A Line from DIA: Flying in for the game? Take the A Line from Denver International Airport directly to Union Station in 37 minutes for $10.50 one-way, then walk to Coors Field. It's genuinely faster than driving and parking on busy game days.
- Lyft / Uber: Drop-off is on 20th Street near the main entrance. Pick-up areas are designated post-game — expect surge pricing after the final out. Budget $15–$30 each way from most Denver neighborhoods.
- Bike: Denver's B-Cycle bike share has stations near Coors Field. For cyclists, the Cherry Creek Trail and Platte River Trail both have routes that pass within blocks of the stadium.
Pre-game parking tips
- Book early for big games: Opening day, fireworks nights, bobblehead giveaways, and Saturday night games sell out all nearby parking. Pre-book at least 2–3 days out for those.
- Arrive 90+ minutes before first pitch: Lot attendants start filling spaces 2–3 hours before game time. Arriving early gives you the best choice of lots and avoids the pre-game traffic backup.
- Have cash handy: Many surface lots near Coors Field prefer or require cash. If you're booking on SpotHero, the payment is handled in the app — no cash needed.
- Plan your exit: Post-game traffic is brutal on I-25 and Speer Boulevard. If driving, consider staying in LoDo for a drink after the game to let traffic clear before leaving.

Door to seats in under an hour from landing, with no parking costs or traffic.
