Faire Parking &
Event Entrance Procedure
Ticket Holders – Please Read
Admission to this year's Valhalla Renaissance Faire is a two-step process.
To help keep the streets surrounding Tahoe Paradise Park clear and minimize traffic impacts on our neighbors, all guests must arrive through one of the designated event parking lots or official drop-off locations.
Step 1: Park at an official event parking lot (or arrive at an approved drop-off location), where your ticket will be verified and you'll receive your admission wristband.
Step 2: Board the shuttle bus to the Faire and begin your adventure!
Please Note: Your ticket alone will not grant admission. All guests must first receive an official Valhalla Renaissance Faire wristband before entering the event.

RIDESHARE — DROP-OFF & PICK-UP
Uber, Lyft, and friendly carriage drivers should use:
1010 E San Bernardino Ave
South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150
This is the ONLY designated drop-off and pick-up point for the event. Save it to your phone before you travel — cell service can be patchy.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
PLEASE DO NOT PARK ON NEIGHBORHOOD STREETS
Parking on residential streets, driveways, or road shoulders near the venue is not permitted, and vehicles may be ticketed or towed. Our neighbors are sharing their town with us — let's be good guests.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ACCESSIBILITY
The rideshare zone at 1010 E San Bernardino Ave is our accessible drop-off point, and our shuttles can accommodate mobility devices. If you need assistance getting from the drop-off to the gate, let a staff member know when you arrive and we'll take care of you.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
BIKING OR WALKING IN?
Locals and the nearby-lodged are very welcome to pedal or walk in — bike parking is available near the entrance. On a busy afternoon it may well be the quickest way in.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ONE MORE THING
We're still working to secure additional parking. If more becomes available before the Faire, we'll announce it here and by email — so keep an eye out.
Rideshare and public transit are strongly encouraged. Thank you for helping us keep traffic light and the Faire merry. See you at the gates!
