Bus Approach and Parking at Riverside Center for the Performing Arts
Once you arrive at the theater, you will take the second entrance (left turn from Riverside Parkway) and drive up to the front of the theater. Please do not park directly in front of the theater entrance. We need to keep that open due to the crosswalk.
Once your bus is parked, please turn off the engine. This helps prevent the exhaust fumes from going into the lobby when the theater doors are open. After your group has gotten off the bus, you may drive back to main road, turn left, and take the same second entrance you took when you arrived. Then turn into the first parking lot on the left and pull in to the bus parking lot.
