Onsite Parking

Over half of State Fair Park is dedicated to onsite parking for State Fair attendees. Parking services at State Fair Park are provided by Interstate Parking Company. All parking is first-come, first-served.

For everyone’s safety, local authorities only allow right-hand turns into State Fair Park along all bordering streets (S. 84th Street, W. Greenfield Avenue, W. Kearney Street, S. 76th Street).

See below for details on parking prices and vehicle entry gates.
