For commercial buses, please contact the SP+ Parking office at 727-896-2256 or [email protected] to make parking arrangements in the AL Lang Stadium parking lot. The SP+ Parking staff will discuss parking rates, create the reservation, take payment, and notify city enforcement so the bus is not ticketed.

SP+ Parking staff needs at minimum 2-3 business days’ notice to ensure there are no scheduling conflicts for the parking lot.
If SP+ Parking is unable to accommodate your parking reservation request, alternative parking for commercial buses is to reserve metered street parking spaces near the museum.

The parking fee will be added to your balance due and is payable along with your final admission and docent fees. Parking fees are nonrefundable.
