365 Naperville – #145 – Ribfest Parking 2011
Wondering Where to Park at Naperville Ribfest?
Naperville Ribfest kicks off this Friday, July 1, 2011 and runs through Monday, July 4, 2011. Daily hours are 12:00 pm to 10:00 pm. Ribfest is put on by the Exchange Club of Naperville to raise funds to help fight child abuse, domestic violence and to strengthen families in our local communities. Veterans of this annual 4th of July weekend fest know that parking is always a challenge. Remote parking and shuttle services are available throughout Naperville and are probably your best bet. So here are the particulars to help you get to and from:
Accessible Parking – Primary lot for accessible parking will be All Saints Academy on Aurora Ave. between River Rd and West St. Shuttle service will take you to the drop off at Martin Ave. & West St. There is also an Accessible Drop Off location area located on the East side of West street, at the northeast corner of West Street and Martin Avenue. This drop-off location will be available on all days of the event except July 4. [download id="35"]- Remote Parking and Shuttle Locations:

PARKING AT EDWARD HOSPITAL IS NOT ALLOWED. YOUR VEHICLE WILL BE TOWED.
So go, enjoy and remember it does get crowded and on days with big music draws the entrances have been closed due to capacity issues. Bring your blankets and chairs (but not your coolers), and enjoy the food and all-star music lineup.

Naperville Ribfest – remote parking and shuttle buses
If you are going to Naperville’s Ribfest, be advised parking is extremely difficult because of the event’s popularity. Your best bet will be to take advantage of the remote parking and shuttle service available. There are several churches nearby that offer fee based parking but they often fill up quickly. Don;t try parking at Edward Hospital or Naperville Cemetary. You risk being towed. Enjoy the ribs and the music. Tonight’s headliner is TODD RUNGREN!
