2024 Saratoga Chowderfest Parking, Shuttles, and More Info
Afraid to brave the crowds at Saratoga Chowderfest? Don't worry! Whether you're planning on parking in downtown Saratoga or are interested in an alternative option, our guide to navigating the annual Chowderfest has you covered.
Parking Options in Downtown Saratoga
Parking in downtown Saratoga can be an issue at Chowderfest because of how popular the event has become. If you don't want to park far away from the festivities, then you should arrive early and carpool to save time and effort.
If you are willing to drive through downtown Saratoga to find a parking spot, here are your best options:
High Rock Avenue / City Center Garage - The former parking lot on High Rock Avenue is now a large parking garage with secure covered parking for over 620 vehicles. This garage offers a pay per park system with the first hour of parking free, and each additional hour being $2, up to a per day maximum of $15.
Woodlawn Avenue Garage - Located on Woodlawn Avenue between Division Street and Church Street is a four-level parking garage. The outside lot, ground level, and ramp offer three-hour parking from 9:00am-6:00pm. The upper levels have a 24-hour parking limit.
Putnam Street Garage - The Putnam Street Garage is located at the southern end of Putnam Street. The lower level offers three-hour parking from 9:00am-6:00pm, and the upper level offers 24-hour parking except for the spaces immediately adjacent to the restaurant (the northernmost spaces), which are three-hour parking. There is no parking for any spaces from 11:00pm-6:00am, November 1 - April 1, so plowing can be done overnight.
Walton Street Garage - A free public parking garage is located at the intersection of Woodlawn Avenue and Walton Street, just west of Broadway. This garage is available for parking for 24 hours on the ground level for all spaces north of the entrance.
Street Parking - Parking is available along parts Broadway and on side streets. However, be aware of any two-hour parking signs and Chowderfest parking restrictions, as seen below.
2024 Chowderfest Shuttles
The Saratoga Casino & Hotel will be offering free shuttle rides into town from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. There will be three shuttles in operation allowing for a more efficient drop off and pick up time.
These shuttle rides will be from their Crescent Ave parking lot and they will drop individuals off at Congress Park. For pickup, head back to Congress Park for the shuttle to bring you back to the Saratoga Casino.
