If you need more info, head to ACE Parking’s website for an extended FAQ.
What is the link to the site selling the permits?
ACE Parking is releasing the link to the site that will be selling the permits ahead of time so you can familiarize yourself with it and set up an account in the system if you choose. The permits will be sold through their reservation website at space.aceparking.com.
The link to the page that will be selling the permits in the system is https://space.aceparking.com/events/
Credit cards are not stored on the site, and the site is entirely PCI compliant.
What are the operating hours for the lots?
Most lots will open for drive-up business at the times below. However, there may be cases when the lots open for permit holders only and do not open for drive-up sales until later in the morning. Each lot is different and works to maintain a balance between the reserved spaces and extra inventory.
Convention Center, Hilton Bayfront garage, Padres Parkade, Diamond View Towers: 5 am – 2 am
Tailgate Park, Triangle, MTS: 5 am – 2 am
What is the refund policy for Comic-Con parking reservations?
ACE Parking allows refunds up to ten days before the start of Comic-Con. No refunds will be permitted within ten days of the event. A $10.00 refund fee will apply for any valid refunds processed before the 10-day blackout period.
Does my permit include in-and-out privileges for the day?
No, ACE Parking does not allow in-and-out privileges. If you leave the lot, your space will become available for another drive-up customer to park in.
Can I make a copy of my permit and give it to my friend?
No. The permits are lot-specific and can only be redeemed once. If a copy is found, the vehicle will be ticketed. If you’ve copied your permit and given it to a friend, the second permit scanned will be in violation, which may be your car. The permits are barcoded, and lot enforcement personnel will make the rounds scanning/redeeming them.
Handicap Parking?
ADA spaces are first-come, first-served. The Convention Center and Hilton Bayfront are the best choices for ADA parking.
