PARKING AND TRANSPORTATION

Public transportation is recommended. (It is an easy two-block walk from 30th & Market Streets.) There is street parking available in the area (Market, and Chestnut Streets)

IMPORTANT: There is no parking available on Walnut Street between 24th and 33rd Streets due to ongoing PennDOT construction. If you have parked on Walnut Street for previous WXPN 5Ks or events at World Stage, please plan to use another parking option this year and allow extra time.

We strongly encourage using public transportation when possible. World Stage is conveniently located two blocks from 30th Street Station.

Other parking options include:

• Cira South Garage (129 S. 30th Street)
• Penn Museum Parking Garage (3220 South Street) — Located at South Street and Convention Avenue. From the garage, participants can walk through Penn Park to reach the race site. Parking is available beginning at 6 a.m., subject to availability. View Penn's official parking information.
• Penn Park lot — Limited parking is available beginning at 6 a.m. Please note that Lower 31st Street will be closed to traffic during the event, so the lot cannot be accessed via the usual route.
  • To access the Penn Park lot: From Market Street, turn onto South 31st Street, then left onto Ludlow Street and right onto Lower South 30th Street. Continue south beneath Chestnut Street toward Walnut Street and follow the road around to the right onto Lower Walnut, toward the Penn Park lot and the lower-level World Stage entrance. PLEASE USE CAUTION: This route passes through a dimly lit, loading dock-style area.
