where to park

validation program

The Downtown Pensacola Parking Validation Program provides free parking* to patrons of dozens of downtown retail establishments. If you're in the Jefferson Street Parking Garage, be sure to ask the retailer you’re visiting if they participate in the program.

* Businesses may require a purchase in order to validate parking.

how it works

When you qualify for validation, the retailer will give you a voucher. Upon exiting the parking facility, insert your garage entry ticket into the paystation followed by the validation voucher. The gate will open automatically allowing you to exit.
