The Ohio Expo Center lists parking for the arena at $7 for a one-time entry (ohioexpoenter.com). The Expo Center gives 614-294-9336 and 614-294-9338 for parking information (ohioexpocenter.com). The Expo Center site describes the building as having seating for up to 7,000 (ohioexpocenter.com). For rink-related events, the Chiller says the parking fee is $5, with no refunds, and the pass is valid only on the days and times scheduled for Taft Coliseum (thechiller.com). The Chiller also says vehicles may not use the pass for other, non-rink events (thechiller.com). The Columbus Hockey Club says every vehicle must present a Taft Coliseum Fairgrounds parking pass at entry for its season parking arrangement (columbushockeyclub.com). The club also publishes updated construction maps and parking directions with that pass information (columbushockeyclub.com). ## Nearby Parksy Spaces for a Post-Show Walk Two Parksy listings at the OEC Fairgrounds are outdoor parking spaces 192 yards from Taft, each priced at $7 a day. A private 24/7 parking space in Columbus is 0.8 miles away and costs $4 an hour. A second private 24/7 space is 1.3 miles away at $4 an hour, while a Short North garage space is 1.6 miles away at $5 an hour. The two OEC Fairgrounds spaces are the closest priced Parksy choices listed for the venue. The private and garage spaces suit drivers who want hourly parking, although each requires a longer walk after an event than the fairgrounds options. Show map of Italian Village ## Fairgrounds and Other Named Parking Alternatives The Ohio Expo Center’s general parking is the main named alternative to parking immediately at the building. Its directions page prices Expo Center parking at $7 for one-time entry (ohioexpocenter.com). The Expo Center identifies Taft Coliseum within its directions and parking information (ohioexpocenter.com). Ohio State Fair parking uses general lots reached from I-71 at the 17th Avenue exit and the Hudson Street exit at Silver Drive (ohiostatefair.com). Shuttles are available in those general lots during the fair (ohiostatefair.com). These lots are a useful option when a fair visit coincides with an event near Taft. The Chiller’s Fairgrounds guidance says parking is south of Taft and that vehicles cannot get closer for dropping off players and bags (edphockey.com). The guidance also warns visitors to allow extra time on weekends (edphockey.com). ## Event-Day Rules Around the Coliseum District Access rules around Taft are tied to the event and the parking pass. The Chiller says its $5 pass is valid only on the days and times scheduled for Taft Coliseum, and it cannot be used for unrelated, non-rink events (thechiller.com). The Columbus Hockey Club says all vehicles must present the Fairgrounds parking pass when entering for its season arrangement (columbushockeyclub.com). The Chiller’s vehicle-access guidance also states that the fee is nonrefundable (thechiller.com). For player and equipment drop-offs, Fairgrounds guidance places parking south of Taft and says there is no closer vehicle access for dropping off players and bags (edphockey.com). Weekend arrivals should allow extra travel time under that guidance (edphockey.com). ## Walking and Public Access From Italian Village The venue is 1.2 miles from the center of Italian Village. Its address is 717 East 17th Avenue, in the Coliseum District near Italian Village, making the neighborhood approach relevant for drivers who choose to leave a car farther away. Ohio State Fair visitors can use shuttle service from the general parking lots, which are accessible from I-71 at the 17th Avenue exit and the Hudson Street exit at Silver Drive (ohiostatefair.com). The shuttle arrangement applies to the fair’s general lots rather than serving as a general rail connection. For an event at Taft, walking from an off-site space should be planned around the listed distance and the post-event crowd. The closest priced Parksy spaces are 192 yards away, while other priced listings are 0.8 miles, 1.3 miles, and 1.6 miles away.
