PARKING IN LEAVENWORTH
Where Can I Park?
We welcome you to town! One of the most frequently asked questions at the Visitor Center is where to park while you are visiting our village. In October of 2021, the City of Leavenworth began a paid parking program which includes the four paid City-owned parking lots and activation of parking meters downtown. Kiosks in the paid parking lots and meters on the street accept Visa, Mastercard, and Discover or you can pay via the ParkMobile App. The cost of parking flexes with the time of year, holiday, and festival schedule, and you can find that rate schedule here.
**Please note: Front Street parking is permanently closed to vehicle traffic.**
**Please note: The City of Leavenworth has ADA placard parking in both our parking lots and on-street parking. Placard parking is free on City streets, including in metered parking stalls. ADA parking in private and City-owned private lots is only available in designated stalls. ADA parking in lots is paid.
Parking Mobile App
The City of Leavenworth has partnered with ParkMobile to make paying for hourly or daily parking easier! With the app, you’ll be able to pay for your parking – all from your mobile phone! Download the app Here.
Paid Parking
Parking Lots are for Long Term Parking
Parking On-Street at the Meter is for Short Term Parking
Per stall per hour: $1.00-$4.50 per hour (max 3 hours)
15-Minute Grace Period
Every parking stall in a parking lot or on-street at the meter is equipped with a sensor that tells us when a stall is occupied or not. This also allows us to see who hasn’t paid and who has.
And, because we know sometimes you just need to run into the shop to grab something quickly, or pick something up, you can do so with no worries!
