Parking Options
This year the Festival is pleased to offer limited reserved parking for evening programs held at the Rockport Art Association, in the lot of the Peg Leg Inn, a 5-10 minute walk along Beach and Main Streets. Cost is $6 per concert. The lot opens for Festival parking at 5:30PM Thursday - Saturday, 4:30PM Sunday. Call the Festival office, 978-546-7391, to check reserved parking availability.
The Peg Leg Inn parking lot is 1/10th of a mile down Beach Street from Main Street, on the left just PAST the Old Burial Ground, directly opposite the new public restrooms at Front Beach. Look for the red "Peg Leg Inn Parking" sign.

Free parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis at the Rockport National Bank at 16 Main Street, just past the Rockport Art Association.

On-street metered parking is available all around town, but finding spaces can be difficult, especially on late Sunday afternoons. Allow extra time to find a space.
