R. MacMillan Space Centre, with private parking spaces bookable nearby on Parksy. Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Lot 60 at H. R. MacMillan Space Centre The site’s official visitor parking is Pay Parking in Lot 60, beside the museum at 1100 Chestnut Street. Lot 60 is the most direct choice for visitors carrying equipment, travelling with children, or arriving for a planetarium show. The official visit information identifies it as the car park for the site and places it within Vanier Park, south of the Burrard Bridge (spacecentre.ca; destinationvancouver.com). ## Other Parking Around Vanier Park and Chestnut Street Drivers who do not use Lot 60 can consider the wider Vanier Park parking area, which is described as a large parking lot serving visitors to the museum (vancouverplanner.com). Its published rates are $5.25 per hour, $14.50 for the daytime maximum from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm, $15.25 for the evening maximum, and $29.75 for 24 hours (vancouverplanner.com). The attraction is in Vanier Park, a location described as having convenient parking and access from the Burrard Bridge area (destinationvancouver.com). Parking is paid rather than free in the visitor information for the site, so a driver heading to the museum should plan around the signed parking facilities rather than assume that nearby curb space will be complimentary.
