The Warfield

The Warfield is a historic 1920s theater on Market Street in downtown San Francisco, known for its ornate interior and intimate atmosphere that has hosted legendary rock, hip hop, comedy, and live entertainment acts for decades. Located at the edge of the Tenderloin and busy Market Street, it sits in a dense, high-traffic part of the city where cars, buses, rideshares, and pedestrians all converge, especially around showtime.

The venue does not have its own parking lot, so visitors rely on nearby garages, small private lots, and very limited metered street parking that can fill up quickly and often has time restrictions and active enforcement. Planning parking in advance reduces the stress of circling crowded blocks, helps you avoid tickets or tows, and lets you focus on enjoying your event instead of worrying about your car, which is why many visitors look for secure, book-ahead options for parking near The Warfield. As with the rest of San Francisco, it is wise not to leave valuables in your vehicle and to review current city parking rules and official guidance before you arrive.
