Avoid the “Sold Out” signs at the stadium! We’ve partnered with Columbus State Community College to provide an easy, off-site parking and shuttle solution for Sonic Temple 2026.
How it Works:
Drivers: Purchase the Park & Shuttle Pass. This covers one vehicle parking space AND the driver’s shuttle ride.
Passengers: Every additional person in the vehicle must have a Shuttle-Only Pass to board the bus.
Accessibility: Our shuttle fleet includes wheelchair-accessible vehicles. Please look for staff at the shuttle stop for boarding assistance.
Security: Peace of mind is included. The Columbus State lot will be secured and monitored during festival hours.
Digital Delivery: No need to wait by the mailbox. All passes are digital and will be sent to your registered email address the week of the show. Simply print your pass or have it ready on your phone to be scanned at the lot.
On festival days, shuttles will begin service approximately 60 minutes prior to the gate opening time. Shuttles will run continuously throughout the day and will run approximately 75 minutes after the end of the festival each night.
There will be self-service bicycle parking at Sonic Temple. Please be prepared to provide your own bike lock and park at your own risk.
