In an emergency, guests must follow the directions of event staff, security and emergency personnel.

• Head south on S Alameda St for one block
• Turn left onto Traction Ave

• The entrance to Corita Day will be just around the corner on Merrick St

Consider taking the train with friends, using a bus connection, or combining Metro with a short rideshare trip. Visit METRO to plan your route and explore accessible transit options like park and ride.

We encourage guests to consider public transportation or rideshare whenever possible.

Some parking providers allow you to reserve and pay for space in advance, so you can spend less time searching and more time celebrating.

Nearby parking options:

• Alloy Garage: 525 S. Santa Fe Avenue
• Little Tokyo Galleria: 333 S. Alameda Street
• Little Tokyo Mall: 319 E. 2nd Street - Preparking Available

A friendly heads-up about street parking: Street parking is limited and many spaces have two-hour limits. Don't risk a parking ticket while you are having fun with friends! Check posted signs carefully or consider a paid lot and stay awhile.
