  • Parking

    It is rather challenging to find street parking in New York City and the parking rate is usually $10-20 per hour or $50 or higher for the full day. So Subway plus Uber is our recommended method to get around the city.

    On the day of the event, if you have to bring your car, you can try street parking or use an app named “Best Parking” which lists all available parking garages and their estimated price.
