## Parking at The California Museum on o Street

The California Museum is at 1020 O Street in Sacramento, with metered on-street parking available during the Museum’s regular business hours Tuesday through Sunday (californiamuseum.org). This is the closest option for a brief visit, although spaces are subject to availability along the surrounding blocks.

The official visitor information also identifies the 10th Street Garage at 1500 10th Street, directly across the street from the Museum. The garage is open on weekdays and Saturdays (californiamuseum.org). Its location makes it the most straightforward named garage for visitors who prefer covered parking immediately beside the site.

## Parksy Parking Spaces Near the Museum

Parksy lists an outdoor parking space 166 yards from the site for $15.45 a day, alongside a lot at 1114 P Street, also 166 yards away, for $15.90 a day. Both options place a driver within a short walk of the museum and suit a visit lasting several hours.

For longer stays, a private parking space 327 yards away is listed at $39 a week. Two outdoor options 0.2 miles away charge $5 an hour, including parking at 1801 10th Street. A Sacramento lot with shuttle service is 0.3 miles away and costs $3 an hour.

## Busy Times and Street Parking Around 1020 o Street

Metered on-street spaces operate during the Museum’s regular business hours Tuesday through Sunday, according to the official location and parking guidance (californiamuseum.org). Drivers arriving during those operating periods need to use the marked metered spaces rather than treating nearby curb parking as unrestricted.

The 10th Street Garage is open on weekdays and Saturdays, while the Museum’s street parking guidance covers Tuesday through Sunday (californiamuseum.org). This difference matters for weekend planning, because Saturday is covered by both stated parking arrangements, while Sunday is specifically addressed through the metered on-street information.

## Other Named Parking Near The California Museum

The 10th Street Garage at 1500 10th Street is the principal named alternative to curb parking, positioned directly across the street from the Museum (californiamuseum.org). Its weekday and Saturday opening schedule makes it a practical choice for visitors who want a garage beside the entrance rather than a space on O Street.

The official visitor pages also direct drivers to the Museum’s location, directions and parking information for parking arrangements around the address (californiamuseum.org). The named garage and metered on-street spaces provide the site-specific options identified in the visitor guidance.

## Walking From Sacramento Valley Station

Sacramento Valley Station is the nearest rail station, 0.8 miles from The California Museum. The walk takes 16 minutes, making rail a workable alternative for visitors who would rather avoid searching for a space around O Street.

The museum is 0.5 miles from Sacramento center, so visitors already in the central area can also approach on foot instead of adding a short local drive. From the station, following the route toward 1020 O Street gives rail travelers a direct walking connection to the site.
