Member Parking

New Member Benefit Starting March of 2025

Portland Ovations Members now have exclusive access to a parking discount from OODA Parking Solutions. 

All Members are welcome to use this perk when attending an upcoming Portland Ovations performance at Merrill Auditorium. 

Please read the additional information below to learn more about this exciting offer.

WHAT: For only $6.05 (prices may vary) parking is available two hours before curtain and one hour after the conclusion of a Portland Ovations performance at Merrill Auditorium. 

WHERE: Chestnut Street Garage. There are three parking levels (see graphic above), accessible from Lancaster St, Chestnut St, and Oxford St. You may enter and park on any available level. If one level is full, please proceed to another level for parking. This parking garage is a two block incline to Merrill Auditorium.

WHEN: Parking reservations must be made at least 30 minutes before arriving at the garage. You cannot purchase parking on site.

HOW: Two days prior to your ticketed performance, Members receive an email link from Portland Ovations to reserve parking. After clicking on “Reserve Parking,” select “Book Now” and follow prompts for payment.

ABOUT YOUR QR CODE: Once booking is complete, your garage access QR code will be emailed to you. Use this QR code to scan in and out of the garage on the day of the performance. To exit the garage, scan your QR code again. If you stay beyond your 1 HOUR grace period, the kiosk will prompt you to pay $3 per hour for the additional time. To enter the garage through the pedestrian doors on levels 1 and 3, you must scan your parking pass QR code at the kiosk next to the door

TROUBLESHOOTING: If you experience problems with parking, a phone number is available at the gate to contact administrators for the garage. Portland Ovations does not manage parking, all onsite questions should be communicated to OODA. Please note, space is limited and not guaranteed. This is an opt in benefit. Members must reserve all discount parking for themselves.
