Most Downtown streets will remain open throughout the day so that visitors can experience the excitement of Downtown destinations, including Fountain Square, restaurants, shops and more.
Please be aware of pedestrians and obey all directions of the Cincinnati Police Department so that we can all make this year's Riverfest a safe and enjoyable experience. Everyone is encouraged to plan ahead and keep the following traffic tips in mind:
* Know Where To Go
* Arrive Early
* Use Public Transportation When Possible

On-street parking will NOT be available throughout the Downtown area south of Court Street after 11 a.m. on Sunday, Sept. 4.

It is recommended that everyone coming to Riverfest take advantage of the convenient parking facilities located throughout the downtown areas and walk to the Riverfront.
Parking is available in the many lots and garages north of Third Street. Additional parking lots are located north and west of Paul Brown Stadium. Cash parking will be available in Riverfront surface lots in the vicinity of Paul Brown Stadium on a limited first come, first served basis. Please note that construction sites in and around the Riverfront are off limits for public parking. Sites will be clearly marked and secured, and anyone parking in these areas will be towed.
Arrive Early
People from all over the region will be coming to enjoy the festivities. Those getting Downtown early will have a better chance of finding premium parking in Riverfront lots, securing good vantage points for the fireworks show, and avoiding delays from heavy traffic.
