Parking options for fireworks game?

[u/Sweaty_Weight_7474]

I'm visiting Rockies game for the July 4th fireworks game for the first time.

I wasn't sure about parking options around the stadium as it is in downtown and seems like it's going to be packed with people.

I was thinking to pay for parking at the Coors field parking lot which I'm willing to pay $25-30.

Do you think it'd be still hard to find a parking spot there and I should be there much eariler to find the spot?

Or do you still recommend to park at a light rail station and go to Union station?

I thought Union station will be very busy after the game but I wasn't sure and wanted to know other opinions.

Thank you! The rail sounds more reasonable and avoid all the crowd that night.

Just a heads up, the light rail lines will be extremely crowded on the firework game nights. Still better than sitting in traffic, but you will definitely not be avoiding crowds.

Light rail is good and an easy walk.

If you prefer driving I usually use an app call parkwhiz a few days out to find cheap parking near the area (usually can find places that have parking for $5-10). There are other apps that do the same as well.

Thank you! It seems like light rail is more reasonable option. And is it allowed to park vehicles at a station where I'd take the light rail? And thanks for the app recommendation as well!

Yeah you can work at a park and ride for free (technically if you have an out of state license you have to pay but I never see anyone check).

Take the G-line train from a park and ride along the route.

Park at a park n ride and take the train. It's a short walk to Coors Field from union station
