Parking around Busch Stadium is available but it’s smart to plan ahead since downtown events can get busy quickly. The Cardinals sell digital parking passes for lots like the Starr Lot or the One Cardinal Way Garage at Ballpark Village, and those passes come through the MLB Ballpark app so you can scan right in. Official parking is limited, so lots around the stadium fill fast — a lot of fans also use nearby public garages or reserve spots on apps before heading down. A popular alternative is taking public transit: the MetroLink train stops right at Stadium Station, just across from the ballpark, and helps you avoid the traffic entirely. Some locals even park a few blocks out and walk to the game to skip big garage prices. Rideshares have designated drop-off and pickup locations too, which can save time after the event ends. No matter how you go, arriving at least an hour early helps you find your spot and soak up the pre-game atmosphere.
