Parking

Please note this is 2011 parking information. 2012 parking information will be available later this year.

During the festival, parking in downtown Bethlehem is extremely limited and tickets for violations are $30 and up. It’s a good idea to park off-site and shuttle to the festival grounds. View the map for parking on the South Side.

Satellite Parking Lots

There are two satellite parking lots:

Martin Tower lot, 1170 8th Ave.
Musikfest Central lot, New location: Corner of Rt. 412 and Commerce Center Blvd.

Shuttles from the Martin Tower lot will drop off at Shuttleplatz North. Shuttles from the Musikfest Central lot will drop off at Shuttleplatz South.

If you plan to spend an entire day festing, we recommend parking at the Martin Tower lot. If you have tickets to a concert, we recommend parking at the Musikfest Central lot.

To travel between the north and south sides, take the North South Transfer bus. You may ride for free by showing your Martin Tower or Musikfest Central ticket.

ArtsQuest Members and volunteers ride for free with their membership cards or volunteer pins. Children 12 and under ride for free. Otherwise, cost is $2 per person for an all day pass.

$4 for shuttle ride.
