## Parking Beside Bijou Theatre on Show Nights

The closest parking is a pay lot across Cumberland from Bijou Theatre, according to the venue’s plan-your-visit information (knoxbijou.org).

For school groups, the venue arranges downtown parking for buses, with arrival instructions provided to the bus driver (knoxbijou.org). Drivers attending a performance can use the nearby Conley Square Lot or the pay lot across Cumberland rather than expecting an on-site venue car park.

## Downtown Knoxville Restrictions Around the Venue

Bijou Theatre is at 807 South Gay Street, in downtown Knoxville 0.3 mi from the city center. The venue directs visitors toward parking across Cumberland and nearby downtown garages, placing the practical parking search on the surrounding street network rather than at the entrance.

Event traffic can make the blocks around South Gay Street and Cumberland slower to navigate before a show and after the audience leaves. The venue’s day-of-show material separately provides downtown bus parking instructions, so bus drivers should follow the arrival directions issued for their group (knoxbijou.org).

## Parksy Parking Within Walking Range of Bijou

Parksy lists a secure, lighted parking lot in Knoxville with 24/7 access, 0.4 mi from Bijou Theatre, at $11 a day. The distance gives drivers a straightforward walk after a show while keeping the car outside the immediate venue frontage.

A second Parksy option is a Knoxville parking lot with shuttle service, also 0.4 mi from the venue, priced at $13.50 a day. Both spaces are close enough for an event visit, with the walk back taking place after the performance rather than during the busiest curbside arrival period.

## Conley Square and Knoxville Garage Alternatives

The venue also points visitors to the State Street, Market Square and Locust Street garages (knoxbijou.org).

The State Street, Market Square and Locust Street garages are free after 6 p.m. on weekdays and all day on weekends, according to the venue’s plan-your-visit information (knoxbijou.org). The closest parking lot is across Cumberland, while these garages give drivers additional downtown choices when a show brings heavier demand.

## Walking to Bijou From Knoxville Transit Stops

Downtown Knoxville parking information identifies the Dwight Kessel Garage as a 296-step, 6.7-minute walk from Bijou Theatre (downtownknoxville.org). The City-County Building Garage is listed as a 330-step walk, giving drivers another named garage option near the performing arts venue (downtownknoxville.org).

Both garage references are useful for a walk-in plan when curbside traffic around 807 South Gay Street is busy. The downtown guide marks the Dwight Kessel Garage as offering free nights and weekends (downtownknoxville.org).
