What’s better than shopping local in downtown Boulder?  How about getting free parking coupons from the city to shop!  City of Boulder parking services will roll out several parking promotions for the holiday season to encourage patrons to visit and shop downtown Boulder.

Holiday parking promotions

  • FREE 3 hour parking coupons (Friday, Nov. 23 – Saturday, Dec. 22)
    Parking enforcement officers will surprise random shoppers each day by handing out free parking coupons; the coupons will be good for three hours of free parking at any downtown parking pay station.  Parking enforcement officers will be on the lookout for customers en route to pay stations (that have yet to pay), and give them a coupon.  Customers will place the coupon on their dash, just like a pay station receipt.  The coupon is only valid for the day it is received.

  • 30,000 one hour free parking coupons (Friday, Nov. 23 – Thursday, Jan. 31, 2013)
    The city will be providing downtown merchants with 30,000 one hour free parking coupons.  These coupons will be honored at the St Julien and the 15th/Pearl garages only.  Inquire at your favorite downtown merchant!
  • One hour free parking coupons in local ads and mailers
    One hour free parking coupons will also be available in Downtown Boulder holiday ads (running through the holiday season in local publications), and in 12,000 mailers sent out by Downtown Boulder, Inc.
