Parking in Atlanta
Parking is a constant concern for the fast-growing city of Atlanta. Here’s all you need to know before you go looking for a parking spot in Atlanta.
There are over 2,500 on-street spaces in Atlanta. Most of them charge $2.00 per hour. Single space meters accept quarters, dimes and nickels. New multi-space meters accept coins, bills and cards (Visa, MasterCard). On-street parking can be limited to 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3 or 4 hours. The hours of enforcement vary based on zones:
- Business and Government zone: Monday through Saturday, 7 am to 7 pm, 2 hrs max.
- Mixed use zone: Monday through Friday, 8 am to 6 pm, 3 hrs max.
- School and University zone: Monday through Saturday, 7 am to 7 pm, 3 hrs max.
- Entertainment, Restaurant and Hospital zones: Monday through Saturday, 7 am to 10 pm, 4 hrs max.
Off-street parking is abundant; an hour costs $5.00 on average, and $14.00 for 24 hours.
Parking might be pricier around event locations, such as the Philips Arena and around Centennial Park. If you’re flying into or out of Atlanta, check out our maps for parking at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.
If you’ve been issued a parking ticket, you can pay the ticket online or find out how to appeal it.
