Why?

As part of the City's transportation goals, during major events, staffing is put into place to protect residential streets from cut through traffic.

What?

Event Access Passes help residents and businesses get though check points, to their home/business during major events. Special Event Access Passes are NOT parking passes. During hard closures of streets, residents will not be able to access roads.

In the past, we have provided Old Town Notices and paper passes. New this summer we are distributing a hang tag that is valid for all major events. You can keep your hang tag all summer.

Which Events are these Valid For? 

Event Access Passes are valid on the following days. We may add additional events as needed. 

• Fourth of July, Monday July 4
• Park Silly Sunday Market and Car Free Days, Sundays, July 3-September 25 (excluding August 7, 14, 21)
• Park City Kimball Art Festival, August 5-7
• Miners' Day, Monday, September 5
• Autumn Aloft, September 16, 17, 18
• Shot Ski, October 15
• Halloween on Main, Monday, October 31

What if I lost mine or need another one?

Send us a text or give us a call and we will help you. We will need to confirm your address to validate that you need to have an Event Access Pass to get to private parking at your home or business. You can also stop by the Special Events Office, 3rd Floor at City Hall (445 Marsac Avenue), Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.

I am having guests over, can they get one?

Maybe. If you have enough private off street parking for your guests we are happy to provide additional passes. If you are having guests over and don't have private parking, please refer to the Special Events Community Information website for additional parking and transportation options. 

More Questions?

Please reach out to jenny.diersen@parkcity.org or text 435.640.5063.

Parking rates during major summer events are intended to encourage alternative modes of transportation during our busiest times. These rates are based on data and balance of needs for businesses and the community. 

2022 Special Event Parking Rates

During Special Events, employees with Carpool, Business or Employee passes should park in North Marsac or Gateway. If those lots are full, parking is available in China Bridge or Sandridge Lots as space allows. Parking is not guaranteed and fills early. Please take time to plan your travel.

Resident Free Friday Local Registration

Park City Council sponsors Free Friday Night for Summit County residents. To register for Free Friday ticket, locals need to pre-register here. 

Event Access Passes

Event Access Passes are for residents (and a few businesses) that have off street parking on Swede Alley and Park Avenue. This year, instead of passing out Access Passes for each event, the City made one pass that is good for all events with road closures/restrictions. These Access Passes are not parking passes, they provide access to streets with private parking garages – not every business/resident needs one. These were distributed door to door before Fourth of July. If someone needs an Event Access Pass, or lost/needs replaced contact Jenny Diersen (text is preferred for quickest response) 435.640.5063 or go by the Special Events Office at City Hall (445 Marsac Ave, 3^rd Floor) Monday-Friday, 9:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.
