Fair parking tips for the Phoenix Fair?

Free parking can be found on certain streets near the railroad tracks on McDowell Road. Specifically, you can park on N 21st Avenue or N 22nd Avenue. The surrounding area consists of businesses and industrial sites, so you don't have to worry about receiving parking tickets or having your vehicle towed. I've been parking in this location for over a decade without any issues.

I'm not sure if parking at Encanto is still an option. However, if it's not, you can consider parking a few blocks away and walking to the fair. The walk is relatively short and takes you around the corner. In years when we didn't want to pay for parking, this was our go-to spot.

To access the free bus transfer, park at a lot located between Adams Street and Washington Street. From there, you can easily catch the free bus.
