PARKING
Because of the local fire regulations, no vehicle may be parked in the loading area beyond the time required to load or unload it. There is a parking lot behind the theatre which is reserved for theatre personnel and smaller vehicles used by touring companies. Access is restricted. Please see the Stage Door Receptionist for details.
Larger vehicles may park in a designated area at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium which is approximately 1 kilometre (half mile) from Centre In The Square.
Note: Trucks and buses may NOT be left running in the loading dock area. The fresh air intake to the building is located in this area. Parking and shore power for buses can be provided.
