PARKING UPDATE
For those arriving at or after 2pm, free street parking is available on several streets around the venue (2 hours, 9 am-4 pm).
The closest paid Paseo Colorado parking garage is located two blocks away at the corner of Los Robles and Green St, 400 E Green St, Pasadena, CA 91101. Parking is $1.50 every 30 mins with a daily maximum of $12.
FINDING THE ENTRANCE
The venue is the church hall, not the main sanctuary, so please do not enter from Del Mar Blvd. Enter the first driveway on Los Robles Ave north of Del Mar Blvd and walk east toward the brown gate. Due to the limited number of spaces available in the shared lot, these have been reserved for those with accessibility needs and our honored guests.
Past the gate, turn right into the patio area and enter through the glass doors to check in.
CHECK IN
We encourage everyone to pre-register for faster check-in, however, tickets will also be available for sale at the door.
For those who have already registered, no printout is needed, but bring an I.D. just in case.
