To improve visitor security, Wolf Trap has made some changes to the traffic patterns and parking procedures in the park. Stopping in front of the Main Gate is no longer allowed. Starting three hours before any performance anyone wanting to purchase tickets at the Box Office or needing to drop off people or picnic items near the Main Gate will need to temporarily park at the drop off area adjacent to the Main Gate as directed by the NPS Park Rangers.

Leaving Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts
When exiting the park after a performance please stay in your lane of traffic as you exit the park. The US Park Police will direct designated lanes either south on Trap Road to the Dulles Toll Road (267) or north to Rt. 7. The Dulles Toll Road takes you to Rt. 7 and Rt. 7 takes you to the Dulles Toll Road. Staying in your lane, instead of trying to switch lanes in the park, before you get to Trap Road makes the traffic run more safely and faster so everyone gets out sooner.
