One-day Visitor Permits

“Visitor” daily virtual parking permits

Visitor parking is available through the ParkMobile app and visitor pay machines. We recommend downloading the ParkMobile app before arriving at Stanford for faster and move convenient visitor parking payments. To learn more about parking rates, visit our Visitor Parking Rates webpage.

"Event" parking permits

Because the supply of parking spaces in central campus is limited, we also have an “Event” permit for $5.25 each, which is valid in the following parking locations:

  • Searsville Lot (L-22)
  • Varsity Lot (L-97) near Stanford Stadium and Sunken Diamond

You can purchase "event" parking at Searsville Lot and the Varsity Lot through our virtual parking permit system (pre-registration required).

If you have any questions, please contact Stanford Transportation at 723-9362 or eventparking@stanford.edu.
