Getting There: Parking & Busing for the Pride Festival

Hey Pride-goers!  Worried about finding parking at the Festival?  The Pride Committee has arranged
for several parking areas and busing between those areas and the Festival.  

Peterman will provide the busing, including wheelchair accessible busing.  Buses will run during
Festival hours: 3pm to 9pm on Saturday, and 1pm to 7pm on Sunday.  Buses will drop off at the south
sidewalk of Hoffner Park, only a few feet from the Festival entrance.  

Buses will run between the Festival and the following locations:
•        Cincinnati State College, Lot C, at the corner of Ludlow Avenue and Central Parkway;
•        The former parking lot for Chase Elementary in Northside, at 4151 Turrill Street;
•        And Burnett Woods Park.

The following pay lots are also available, but buses will not be running to them:
•        Behind Slims, with entrances from Ludlow Avenue and Blue Rock avenue;
•        Behind New Spirit MCC, best reached by taking Gulow Street north from Hoffner street;
•        At the corner of Lingo Street and Hamilton Avenue;
•        And on Chase Avenue, east of Hamilton Avenue, across from UDF.

Be sure not to park in Ace Doran lots (the owner will tow immediately), or in other reserved parking.


For your convenience, the Pride Committee has arranged for shuttle buses to run between the
Pride Festival and the following locations: (1) the former parking lot for Chase Elementary in
Northside, at 4151 Turrill Street; and (2) Cincinnati State College, Lot C, at the corner of Ludlow
Avenue and Central Parkway.

The times buses will pick up and drop off may vary depending on the needs of pride-attendees.  
However, buses will be scheduled to arrive at the designated parking lots at the following times.

On Saturday, buses will arrive at these parking lots every half-hour from 3:00 pm to 8:30 pm.

On Sunday, buses will arrive at these parking lots every half-hour from 1:00 pm to 6:30 pm.

On Sunday, a bus will also run between Burnett Woods park and the Pride Festival.  It will pick up and
drop off at the Burnett Woods gazebo every half-hour from 1:15 pm to 6:15 pm.

Buses will be wheelchair-accessible.
