How much parking demand does an event at Coors Field create?
An average Coors Field event draws an estimated 32,000 people. At 2.8 people per car, that is about 11,429 vehicles. With an estimated 4,300 on-site spaces covering about 38% of them, roughly 7,129 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 $35 average rate, the off-site parking market around Coors Field is worth about $392,000 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 9,143 vehicles and off-site overflow to about 4,843; if one in three does, overflow falls to about 3,357. Sold-out weekend series and concerts at the full 50,144 seats push the other way.
