Paying for parking near Love Run Philadelphia, is easy
Love Run Philadelphia is a popular spring half marathon and 7K that starts and finishes at Eakins Oval by the Philadelphia Museum of Art, drawing thousands of runners and spectators to the Benjamin Franklin Parkway and Center City. The race route follows some of Philadelphia’s most scenic and historic corridors, which makes the event memorable but also means key roads are closed to regular traffic, causing heavier congestion on surrounding streets and higher demand for nearby parking. Because large crowds typically arrive early for the start and stay for post-race festivities, spaces in nearby garages and lots can fill quickly, so securing parking near Love Run Philadelphia in advance is a smart way to avoid circling busy downtown blocks.
On race morning, sections of the Parkway, Kelly Drive, Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, and adjacent Center City streets often have parking restrictions or “no parking” zones, and vehicles in restricted areas may be relocated, so drivers should pay close attention to posted signs and avoid assuming their usual street spot will be available. Street parking in nearby neighborhoods can be limited and highly competitive, especially during early hours when runners, volunteers, and spectators all arrive at once, and detours can make it harder to reach open spaces without a plan. Booking a secure off-street space ahead of time helps you account for closures, reduce stress, and focus on enjoying the race atmosphere, but you should always confirm current road closures, parking rules, and event guidance from official city and race organizers before you go.
