Arrive early! Parking in Tacoma Dome lots is limited and will fill quickly.

Avoid use of Exit 133 off I-5. This exit is generally closed for high volume traffic events and traffic will be re-routed. Recommended directions.

Advance pre-paid parking in Preferred Lot F is available for purchase here. All other parking in Tacoma Dome lots is first-come, first-served for $30 + tax. If code is required, please use 1818.

Patrons attending must be 18 years of age or older with valid, government issued photo ID.

To ensure a safe and fun time for all, guidelines have been collectively agreed upon by first responders, security, the venue, and show staff. Plan ahead and please review the EDM Guidelines before the show to expedite entry into the building.

We welcome cosplay at the Tacoma Dome! To help ensure a fun and safe environment for all guests, please take a moment to review our guidelines.

Masks, helmets, or costumes that cover most or part of the face may not be worn when entering or exiting the venue, during ID checks, or while making purchases.

Masks, helmets, or costume props—including any item carried or worn as part of a costume—are welcome as long as they do not pose a credible threat or resemble a weapon.

Please note that our security team will make case-by-case judgments at the entrance and may request modifications or the removal of certain items before allowing entry.

GO CLEAR FOR SAFETY

Binbox

A very limited amount of Binbox lockers are available for rent on a first-come, first-served basis outside the venue for $10-$15 depending on size of locker (card only, no cash).

The Tacoma Dome is a cashless facility, including all concession and merchandise sales. Google Pay and Apple Pay are also available at concession points of sale. There are cash-to-card kiosks (reverse ATM’s) where guests can exchange their cash for a Tacoma Dome VISA card. Card balances remain usable anywhere after the event. Going cashless improves the transaction process, reduces wait times, and limits guest to staff contact. Cashless parking payment options are also available. Please visit our Cashless FAQs for more information.

Guests should enter through the Upper NW, Upper SW and Lower NW doors. The recommended doors for our guests with disabilities are the Lower NW.
