Parking

Where can I park my car? Everything you need to know about parking at Metro stations.

Los Angeles is hosting several 2026 World Cup events. We will have options for direct bus service, park and rides, and plenty of ways to get you to the stadium. Because of this, some pricing and availability will differ.

On World Cup match days June 12, 15, 18, 21, 25, 28 and July 2, 10, parking cost will vary. Please check back regularly if you don’t reserve in advance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the TAP card eligibility requirement 10 one-way transactions or 10 daily transactions?

The requirement is that the registered TAP card must be used on 10 separate calendar days during the month.

Now that TAP offers credit and debit card payment to pay fare, can my credit and debit card number be validated by the parking kiosk instead of my TAP card?

Not at this time. If you want to park in the Metro Parking Lots, please continue to pay your transit fare with your TAP card and input that TAP card number into the Parking Kiosk.

Am I able to pay for my parking with my TAP card?

Currently, this feature is not available. Metro recognizes the value of paying with TAP card and is actively working on this feature.
