Each Festival Parking Pass is good for one specified day of parking and the cost is $10. Parking spaces are limited; and patrons are encouraged to utilize the Festival busing options; however, a pre-purchased Parking Pass provides a parking spot for the specified date listed on the Parking Pass.
Parking Passes are NON-Refundable but may be transferred to another date and time up to 72 hours BEFORE your scheduled visit – if available prepaid parking passes remain for the date you are transferring to. Tickets will not be transferrable after 72 hours before your scheduled visit. Prepaid parking passes cannot be transferred to another season.
A Parking Pass is valid for Standard Parking for one vehicle at a Minnesota Renaissance Festival parking lot. Standard Parking includes but is not limited to Motorcycles, Cars, RV’s, or Buses.

Parking in all Minnesota Renaissance Festival lots is guaranteed only with a pre-purchased date-specific Parking Pass. When you arrive at the Festival with your purchased date-specific Parking Pass, a parking attendant will direct you where to park. Internal shuttles will be available to shuttle patrons from the lots to King and Queen's front gates.
Festival parking lots are open from 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Festival gate admission opens at 9 a.m. and closes at 7 p.m.
Patrons pay one fee for a Parking Pass, which is good only for the specified date at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival. When any patrons drive off the site, the Parking Pass is voided and if the patron wishes to re-enter the Festival, the patron must purchase an additional Parking Pass for that date, subject to availability.
