Tips & Fan Reports
What fans who park here actually do, and what it cost them.
Post-game, I-35E (Stemmons Freeway) clears faster heading south. Avoid the Woodall Rodgers merge.
Rideshare pickup is on Olive Street. Walk a block from the main exit for faster pickup.
DART to Victory Station is the stress-free option. The walk to the arena is short and well-lit.
Victory Park garages are the best value if you want to walk through restaurants pre and postgame.
