We recommend parking in the 2nd Street Parking Garage (1390 E 2nd St, Tucson, AZ 85719) as it is the closest garage to the University of Arizona Student Union. Registrants have the option to PREPAY for parking in the 2nd Street garage ($10 per day), but the deadline to do so is March 30, 2026.

Do I need to pay for parking?

WRRC conference staff will distribute PRE-PAID (single-exit) parking vouchers at check-in each day to attendees who purchased them in advance. Please note that these parking vouchers are only valid at the 2nd Street Parking Garage, and that a voucher will be needed for each day.
