## Event-Night Parking Behind National in Richmond

The venue’s parking advice points drivers to parking decks directly behind the venue, with metered street parking also within walking distance (thenationalva.com). The entrance address is 629 East Broad Street, placing the venue 0.2 mi from Richmond centre.

Prepaid event parking is available through SeatGeek for shows at the venue (seatgeek.com). The venue information also lists Yellow Cab service for arrivals and departures (thenationalva.com), which can be useful when a show ends and nearby spaces fill quickly.

## Metered Streets and Enforcement Around East Broad Street

Metered street parking is available within walking distance of the venue (thenationalva.com). The venue’s own parking information identifies the parking decks behind the building as the principal nearby option, rather than relying only on curb spaces (thenationalva.com).

Drivers using East Broad Street and the surrounding downtown blocks should follow the posted meter and curb restrictions. Event traffic can make the streets around 629 East Broad Street busier before performances and immediately after they finish, so a reserved or off-street space avoids searching at the busiest point.

## Parksy Spaces Within a Short Walk of National

A few steps away, Parksy lists an outdoor lot in Richmond at 113 yd for $19 a day and an outdoor space at 310 N. 8th St. at 113 yd for $19 a day. At 121 yd, a lot with shuttle service costs $9 a day, while a secure, lighted space with 24/7 access costs $12 a day.

The Edison Garage is 189 yd away and costs $15 an hour. St. Paul’s Church Garage is 201 yd away and also costs $15 an hour. The 113 yd and 121 yd options keep the walk short after a performance, while either garage provides a nearby alternative for drivers who prefer structured parking.

## Named Richmond Garages and Lots Beyond the Venue Decks

Nearby alternatives listed for the venue include the 623 E. Broad St. Lot, 310 N. 8th St. Lot, 110 N. 7th St. Lot, and 801 E. Cary St. Lot (richmond-theater.com). These named lots give drivers several downtown locations beyond the decks directly behind the building.

The same venue parking guide lists the 902-James Center Main Deck Garage and 107 E. Cary St. among nearby choices (richmond-theater.com). A separate operator listing identifies the Coliseum Garage at 501 N. 7th Street, where drive-up and monthly rates are available (parking.com). SeatGeek also offers prepaid parking for events at the venue (seatgeek.com).

## Richmond Main Street Station to National on Foot

Richmond Main Street Station is the nearest station, 0.6 mi from the venue, with a 13 min walk to 629 East Broad Street. The station provides a practical rail alternative for visitors who would rather avoid downtown event parking.

The venue sits 0.2 mi from Richmond centre, so the central location supports a straightforward walk from downtown before a show. Drivers arriving from outside Richmond can use the station as a drop-off or rail destination, then complete the 13 min walk to the entrance.
