This is the nearest named parking recommendation tied directly to the venue, making it the most useful starting point for drivers arriving for a performance. On-street spaces are available throughout downtown Bakersfield, according to the theater’s visitor information (bmtstars.com). The venue is 0.2 mi from Bakersfield center, so approaching from downtown can keep the final drive short, although event traffic can make spaces near Chester Avenue more competitive. ## Downtown Bakersfield Street Parking Near Chester Avenue On-street parking throughout downtown Bakersfield provides another option around the theater, with the visitor information specifically identifying 20th Street west of Chester Avenue as the recommended area (bmtstars.com). Street parking is useful when a performance arrival does not coincide with the busiest downtown periods, but spaces may require a short walk to 1931 Chester Avenue. The theater is identified as the Bakersfield Music Theatre and Stars Theatre Restaurant in downtown Bakersfield (visitbakersfield.com). Drivers using surrounding streets should follow the posted restrictions for the particular block, since the visitor guidance distinguishes general downtown on-street parking from its specific recommendation on 20th Street west of Chester Avenue (bmtstars.com). Show map of Bakersfield ## Parksy Parking Lots Within Reach of Stars Parksy lists a parking lot in downtown Bakersfield 1.1 mi from Stars at $100 a day. This is the closest priced Parksy option in the local listings and suits drivers who want a reserved lot rather than relying on a street space near Chester Avenue. Several priced Parksy lots are 3.9 mi away: one secure parking lot is available at $100 a month, another secure lot is also $100 a month, and secure RV and car parking with 24/7 access is $100 a month. A secure outdoor RV and car storage space is also 3.9 mi away at $100 a month. The most distant listed option is a secure 24/7 lighted lot 4.3 mi away at $150 a day. ## Downtown Event Pressure Around Stars Theater Stars sits in downtown Bakersfield, where audience arrivals overlap with other activity in the central area. The theater’s visitor page directs drivers to 20th Street west of Chester Avenue rather than presenting a dedicated venue lot (bmtstars.com), so arriving early is especially useful when a performance draws drivers toward the same downtown blocks. Street parking is available throughout downtown Bakersfield (bmtstars.com), but the rules applying to a space are controlled by the signs on its block. The theater operates at 1931 Chester Avenue and is also listed as Bakersfield Music Theatre and Stars Theatre Restaurant (visitbakersfield.com). ## Walking From Bakersfield Station to Stars Bakersfield station is the nearest listed rail station, 0.7 mi from Stars, with a 15 min walk to 1931 Chester Avenue. The station-to-theater journey offers an alternative to searching for a space in downtown Bakersfield, particularly when the recommended 20th Street area is busy. From the station, allow the full 15 min walking time for the approach to the theater. Stars is 0.2 mi from Bakersfield center, placing the venue within the downtown area identified by the theater’s visitor information (bmtstars.com). Drivers who park farther from Chester Avenue can use the same central-city walking approach, while rail passengers can avoid bringing a car into the busiest arrival period.
