How much parking demand does an event at Albertsons Stadium create?
An average Albertsons Stadium event draws an estimated 35,000 people. At 2.8 people per car, that is about 12,500 vehicles. With an estimated 4,000 on-site spaces covering about 32% of them, roughly 8,500 cars per event look for parking off site, on transit or through ride-share.
If about 35% of attendees end up in paid off-site lots at the $30 average rate, the off-site parking market around Albertsons Stadium is worth about $367,500 per event across all operators. That is a market-wide estimate, not what one parcel earns.
Transit and ride-share change the picture. If one in five attendees arrives without parking a car, demand falls to about 10,000 vehicles and off-site overflow to about 6,000; if one in three does, overflow falls to about 4,375. Sold-out games and concerts at the full 36,387 seats push the other way.
