Nationwide Arena directs all pick-ups and drop-offs to West Street, and vehicles must remain attended at all times.

Parking for oversized vehicles varies by event, so it's best to confirm with the venue ahead of your show date.
Book at least four to eight weeks out for most Columbus concerts, and push that to three to six months for major touring acts at Nationwide Arena or Schottenstein Center. Summer outdoor festival season and Ohio State-adjacent events book especially fast. The earlier you compare options through Coachbuscolumbus.com, the better your vehicle selection and pricing, waiting until the last minute almost always means higher rates and fewer choices.
