Parking Information

The Paramount Theatre does not have its own parking lot, but the Telegraph Plaza Garage at 2100 Telegraph Avenue is your best bet. It's right across the street from the Box Office and 21st Street entrance, so you'll be steps away from the show. There's also some limited street parking on the surrounding blocks if you're feeling lucky.

Prefer to skip the parking hunt entirely? Hop on BART to the 19th Street Oakland Station and take the 20th Street/Broadway exit. You'll be at the theatre's door in about 5 minutes on foot. One tip: double-check the garage's hours before you head out, so it's still open when the curtain comes down.
