Regatta Day - Expectations ?


Parking in Philadelphia

Kelly Dr is typically closed during regattas.  If you are driving east on Kelly Dr toward the city, you will be detoured up the hill. 

The lots in Fairmount Park can be reached by following the Kelly Dr detour. Monitored parking will cost at least $20 (cash!) per day. Shuttles are anticipated to run every 20-35 minutes (depending on traffic) from approximately 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. 

Address for parking at Mt Pleasant Mansion (from this parking area you can hike down the hill right to the grandstands).  More info can be found here.

 
Notes
  1. Parking is also available by the Art Museum which is approximately a 20-minute walk away.
  2. As with any city, it is recommended to lock cars and leave no visible items in the car.
  3. Bathrooms - there was limited availability at the 1st Manny Flick but there are plans to have more units closer to our tent.  There should be extra toilet paper in the Conestoga chuck wagon, but you may want to BYOTP.
