Parking Announcement

 


In May, 2010 UBC Parking and Access Control Services increased the parking rate to $10.00 per vehicle in the Rose Garden Parkade during most events held at the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts.

Payment by Visa, MasterCard or exact change will be required upon entering the parkade. The gates will be up for exit until one hour after the event has ended.

Audience members are encouraged to arrive as soon as possible to ensure ample time for parking prior to the start of an event.
