Denver Pavilions parking, like all parking in Downtown Denver takes place either on the street at a parking meter, or in a parking garage. Denver parking meters, as always, run $1 per hour, with a two-hour maximum until 10:00 P.M. Monday through Saturday. Meters are free all day on Sunday and holidays.
The Pavilions parking garage is accesses off of Welton Street. You need to be headed northbound on Glenarm to get in easily, so get on 15th Street (one-way westbound) from Tremont Pl., Court Pl., or Colfax and turn right (north) onto Welton St.
Elevators from the Pavilion’s garage go directly up into the Pavilions Mall. However, there are two different elevators, so make sure you pay attention to which one you come out of.
From the ground level, you can hop on the 16th Street Mall Free Shuttle and be anywhere in downtown Denver in minutes.
Parking Garage Rates Pavilions
Pavilions parking rates are $4.00 per hour for the first three hours, and $14.00 for anything over 3 hours during the day. However, after 5:00 P.M. weekdays, and all day on weekend, its a flat rate of $7.00, so if you’ll be less than 2 hours, try and find a parking meter. Meters on the nearby cross streets are typically full during the day and when there are events downtown. However, you may have better luck parking on 15th Street.
Patrons of the United Artists Movie Theater in the Denver Pavilions can park for free in the parking garage with validation. Take your parking ticket with you to the movie theater. In the lobby validate your parking ticket with the automated validation machine on the wall next to the door across from the concession stand. Keep in mind, that validation is for three hours only and the clock starts when you enter the parking garage, not when your movie starts. That means that dinner and a movie isn’t going to work unless you really finesse it and see a short flick.
During the Christmas holiday shopping season, the Pavilions parking garage usually has special rates to help lure shoppers to the downtown mall. For the holidays in 2009 through Christmas, parking rate specials are just $2.00 on weekends and evenings after 5 p.m. if you have your ticket validated with a Pavilions merchant, restaurant, nightclub, bar, or the movie theatre.
Many merchants do not require a purchase for validation, so don’t forget to ask, even if you are just window shopping.
