Parking

There are approximately 40,000 parking spaces in Downtown Kansas City, and even more throughout the metro. To find parking near T-Mobile Center and Municipal Auditorium, view our Downtown Kansas City Parking Map. 

Park KC

Download the City of Kansas City's Park KC app to pay for parking in municipal garages and metered parking directly from your phone. The Park KC app can be used for any of the city’s 1,500 parking meters.

 

Parking Along the Streetcar Route

Parking along the KC Streetcar line is also allowed but vehicles must park within the painted white lines along the route. This means that every portion of the vehicle, including the side mirrors, must be inside the painted white lines. This is to ensure that the streetcar has clearance to run along the tracks without any interference. Since a streetcar cannot swerve, it cannot move out of the way of parked vehicles. Vehicles should also never park on the streetcar tracks. Find out more at kcstreetcar.org.
