Parking Tips

Parking is free of charge, but limited. The most valuable advice we can offer while parking is to please follow the directions of the United States Park Police and uniformed parking staff when entering and exiting the park. These men and women are trained professionals and have everyone's safety and comfort in mind. The exit following a concert can take up to 60 minutes for sold out performances. Weather conditions are an influencing factor, and patience is key to the success of your parking experience.

A valuable tip on exiting Wolf Trap is to exit towards Route 7. If you are parked in the East lot ( the lot on the same side of Trap road as the Filene Center) you will make a right turn and if you are in West lot (the lot across the road from the Filene Center) you will make a left turn. A recent traffic and parking analysis study concluded that approximately 70% of Filene Center patrons come to the park via the Dulles Toll Road Route 267. If you arrive via this route, you may wish to exit the same way. Whichever way you are directed to exit the park, whether it is to the right or left, you can conveniently access the Dulles Toll Road. Both the eastbound and westbound on-ramps to the Dulles Toll Road are 1.5 miles on the right once you have made a right onto Route 7. The United States Park Police establish traffic patterns and provide direction to ease your way on to Trap Road. For the safe and expeditious flow of all vehicles, very little latitude is given for individual choice when exiting on to Trap Road. Please remember, whether you are directed north or south on Trap Road, you can get there from here.
