Last year I paid $10 at a lot right across the street from one of the entrances. Not sure what it cost to park inside.

I'm going and have for many years. My favorite weekend of the year. I arrive Thursday and leave Sunday AM. I park in the NCRS fun display. It's around $55 but that's for all 4 days. Bring plenty of sun block and fluids

What is the "Fun Display?"

Do you have to "display" your car or is it just parking for vettes?

What's the chance of getting into the "limited" parking for vettes ($10) on Sat morning? Does it fill up fast?

Thanks everybody!

It is just on sight parking in the middle of the fairgrounds on grass. There is nothing more than a celebrity pick from the cars in the Fun Fest. No white glove treatment. All areas fill up fast on Saturday. Best is to get there Thursday and register for the Fun Fest and then get there early each day you are there.

I've been going for many years but have never brought the vette. Once your parked on the fun field can you drive off at the end of each day do you have to leave it parked for the entire show?

You can leave everyday, but you may not get the same spot the next day. I recommend going early if you want a nice spot.

Every time I"ve gone, we've parked in the Fun Dispay Area. We get there around 8AM if no before, and get a good spot on the level ground near the Subway. You can leave your car there overnight if you want, but you are also free to come and go as you please, you get a parking decal to put on your windsheild that allows you to go in and out.

We have been doing the Fun Field for years, but we also spend four days at the event so it really is a bargain for us. If you get to the show early enough, you can park near the main event on level ground, which makes it easier to drop back to your car with purchase etc.

Last year's event -
