Parking / Shuttleplatz Service

Parking in downtown Bethlehem is extremely limited. City lots cost $10 per day and tickets for violations are $30 and up! We suggest parking in one of our FREE lots and shuttling in.

Once you have parked your vehicle, air-conditioned buses, known as "Shuttleplatz," will provide round-trip transportation to and from festival grounds.

Accessibility

Public parking with relatively easy access for persons with disabilities is available in the Walnut Street and North Street parking garages, located adjacent to the festival site. Reserved off-site parking is available only at the Lehigh Shopping Center, Union Boulevard and Club Avenue.

A free shuttle bus, provided by GOOD SHEPHERD, will transport a disabled person and one companion to the festival. Service at this lot operates 11:30 a.m.-11:30 p.m. The GOOD SHEPHERD bus will stop at all designated on-site festival trolley stops to embark and disembark passengers.

Reserved parking for disabled persons is not available at any of the festival sites, but limited parking is available on Conestoga Street near Festplatz.

At RiverPlace, transportation service - via a golf cart - is available for people with physical disabilities. The service will transport a person with a physical disability and one companion from the festival box office, Main and Lehigh streets, to the stage area.

Few architectural barriers exist throughout the festival site; however, there is a steep hill going down Main Street from the corner of Church Street to Festplatz and Plaza Tropical. Handwerkplatz, Plaza Tropical, RiverPlace and Pennsylvania Lottery Volksplatz are all located on grassy areas.
