    I attended First Event prior to it moving to Boston. What are the parking arrangements?

      Hi Terri – My apologies on the delay here. There’s a few parking options:

      (1) The Boston Park Plaza does have parking in an associated garage. Here’s the link to the information: https://www.bostonparkplaza.com/hotel/faqs/ and here’s the information from the link:
      “Valet parking is available for $62 per night. Self Parking is available at the Motor Mart Garage, which is across the street from the hotel (entrance located at 201 Stuart Street, Boston, MA).”

      (2) You could park at Motor Mart Garage directly. Without valet the price is at least 1/2. Learn more here: https://motormartgarage.com/rates/

      (3) There are other options listed here that are even less expensive: https://spothero.com/destination/boston/park-plaza-hotel-parking

      I hope this helps, please let us know if you have further questions,
