We recommend using a desktop browser to make booking easier!
⭐ Make sure to have this information prepared, BEFORE you begin reserving your parking:
✅ Your performance date(s) and time(s)
✅ Know which garage you'd like to park at
✅ Credit Card
You can check what performances you have for the season by:
- Logging into your sfopera.com account. Click the Upcoming Performances tab in your account profile
- Downloading the San Francisco Opera mobile app. Log into your account on the app, go into Account Info, and see your performances in My Tickets
Step 2: Select the Garage, Date & Time
Choosing a Garage
Select either Performing Arts Garage Center or Civic Center Garage
Selecting the Reservation Time & Date
Select the date for your reservation.
Since you are booking parking for a San Francisco Opera event, your start and end times do not matter.
Click the blue Search button to move onto the next step.
Step 3: Add Reservation to Cart
You are now seeing the list of garages available for your selected reservation date.
Add one of these garage listings to your cart*:
- Performing Arts Event Rate
- Civic Center Event Rate
⭐ Please Note: Make sure to add the Event Rate version of the garage reservation to your cart. These are the ones listed at the top of the search results.
Step 4: Repeat Steps 1–4, as Necessary
Navigate to the top of the page to select new reservation dates for any other performances you have for the season.
Add additional parking reservations to your cart, as needed.
Step 5: Proceed to Checkout
Once you have added all your reservations to your cart, click the cart icon at the top right corner of your browser to see all your parking reservations. Review the cart info to make sure all the dates and garage selections are correct for your reservations.
⭐ When you are ready, click the blue Checkout button!
You will be directed to fill out your info, including your email address and payment info. Make sure to use an active email address, as this will be where your QR code parking tickets will be emailed to.
