Parking

Saturday – April 6th
Parking for Packet Pickup

Saturday Packet Pick-Up

As we all know parking in Miami Beach can be a headache, we have tried to relieve some of that stress by reserving 100 discounted parking spots on Saturday for packet pickup at Laz Parking Garage at 5th and Collins. These are on a first come first serve basis and discounted rate is only valid for 1.5 hours.  The entrance to this garage is on Collins Ct. (the alley between Collins and Washington) Packet Pickup is from 1:00-5:30pm on March 31st.

  • Start by printing out the Saturday Parking Pass here.
  • Bring this pass with you to Laz Parking and show it to the attendant located on the top level of the garage, they will direct you to where you should park
  • Park and make your way down to the beach to pick up your packet and meet with other athletes
  • Upon leaving make sure you have your Ticket, Saturday Parking Pass and Race Bib ready to show the cashier (third floor) for validation; this is the only way you get the discounted rate of $7.00 which must be paid in EXACT cash.
  • Get some rest and get ready for Race Day!

Driving Directions: Take the MacArthur Causeway/I-395/US 41 into Miami Beach. Continue straight onto 5th St. Follow 5th St until you reach Collins Ave. Make a U-Turn at Collins Ave followed by an immediate right into Collins Ct. (the alley just behind the Equinox Gym Building. The entrance to the Parking Garage will be on your Right).

Sunday, April 7th
Parking for Race Day

All parking is on a first come first served basis. Parking in Miami Beach is extremely limited. The garages and routes below are only recommendations. Many of the garages will fill early in the morning – if you have a bike with you and don’t mind a short ride or if you are planning to arrive after 6AM, you should bypass the first five parking garages listed and head directly to the largest parking lot at the Miami Beach Convention Center. It is the farthest garage from the event site, but has the largest capacity and is best equipped to handle a large number of cars.

Because of the nightlife in Miami Beach, many of the garages (both city and privately owned) charge flat rates of $15-$20 for cars arriving before 5:30AM - however some public garages go back to charging hourly rates after 5:30AM.
