Driving/parking directions:

From I-65
• Exit I-65 at Broadway for shuttle service to the show.
• Exit 135/St. Catherine West for valet or self-parking. Exiting from either the north or the south ramps will place you heading west on St. Catherine.

If you wish to have your vehicle valet parked, after exiting I-65, continue westward on St. Catherine (it is one way at this point) for several blocks, crossing a series of numbered streets (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.). At 3rd Street, St. Catherine becomes two-way, so be sure to get into one of the rightmost lanes. Turn left onto 6th Street. Follow 6th Street south, past Oak, Ormsby and Park (Central Park will be on your left).  The next cross street is Magnolia , turn right to drop off your car for valet parking service during the show. There is a $20 fee for valet.

If you wish to park your own vehicle, merge onto the left lane of St. Catherine if exiting from I-65 North; turn right onto St. Catherine from the straight ramp if exiting from I-65 South - DO NOT fork off to the right. Get immediately in the leftmost lane, then turn left on First Street. Continue on First Street for several blocks. From First, turn right onto Hill. You will then cross a series of numbered streets (2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc.).  You may park anywhere on the street not designated as a permit area or...

Continue up 2nd Street to park at the Filson Club, turning left on Ormsby and left on 3rd - it will be on your right (you may also turn left onto 3rd directly from St. Catherine, but this puts you in heavy traffic).

To park at the Spalding University lot at Fourth and Kentucky Streets, continue on St. Catherine heading one-way west after taking Exit 135 from I-65. Cross a series of numbered streets (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.). At 3rd, traffic becomes 2-way, so get into one of the two right lanes. Turn right onto 4th Street; after crossing Kentucky (next block), entry into the lot on the Spalding campus will be on your immediate right.

Valet drop-off is one block away at 6th Street. If you wish to park your car yourself, continue on 9th, which becomes 7th. Turn left onto Hill Street, then right onto 6th Street. 6th immediately curves sharply to the left, turning into Gaulbert Avenue., At this curve, you may turn right to enter the Cochran Elementary School lot, or you may continue on Gaulbert, turning right on 3rd Street, left onto Cardinal and left onto 2nd Street to park at DuPont Manual High School, Noe Middle School or YPAS.
