For an evening visit connected with Yale School of Music programming, Yale Lot 51 at 310 Temple Street is free to the public from 4:00pm on weekdays and at all hours on weekends (music.yale.edu).
Yale Lot 51 and Street Parking Near the Museum
Yale Lot 51 has its entrance at 310 Temple Street and is the named free parking option provided by Yale for public use during the stated evening weekday and weekend periods (music.yale.edu).

Busy Yale Visit Times and Hillhouse Avenue Parking Rules

The museum’s published parking information points visitors toward Yale facilities and street parking, while a local listing notes that nearby lots can charge fees (music.yale.edu; evendo.com). Parking around Hillhouse Avenue therefore depends on the restrictions posted at each space and on the access period for the chosen Yale facility. Yale School of Music says instruments are featured in demonstrations and live performances throughout the academic year (eighteenthcentury.yale.edu), so academic-year programming can increase demand around event times.
