St. Benedict’s Oktoberfest event is usually very well attended which can lead to some traffic and parking issues during peak hours. If you plan on driving to the event, please consider utilizing the VMFA parking deck, located at Stuart Ave and Sheppard St. The deck is conveniently located across the street from the event and should help to lessen the street parking impact. The deck is open from 9AM – 7PM daily, and is free to VMFA members; $3 all-day for non-members. Please keep in mind the parking deck’s hours of operation and be sure to remove your vehicle before it closes at 7PM. Reminder announcements are usually made in advance of the deck closing for the evening.
