Parking Management Software for Venues

Smart Parking Software for Venues and Events

It’s game day and everything is set and ready to go! The food and drinks are packed, the tailgate party supplies are all ready to go. Everything is ready, and all that is needed is to find a space to park and get set up- all before the game starts. The problem is this is the same for every other person coming to the event. This could be hundreds to thousands of people depending on the event. This can be stressful for all involved from visitors, event management, parking enforcement, and venue management. With such a large volume of people congregating into one area in a short period of time, there should be some form of organization in place to take some of the chaos and burdens of parking away.  In order to meet the needs of the parking lot and facility for venues and events, parking management is taking a more futuristic approach by using smart or digital technology.

Smart Parking Systems 

These areas can be very high congestion areas and have a higher demand for flexibility for different events and users. These areas must offer a wide range of options for those using the facility. The overall goal of a parking facility is to optimize the total capacity, manage parking assets, and offer an amazing experience for users. There are many benefits to smart parking that make it the go to system for parking management.

With the cloud-based system, parking area operators are able to control and monitor large areas of vehicles all within a mobile application. Old-school approaches to monitoring these areas were to walk or drive the premises looking through the lots. Now with the smart parking system, all can be viewed and enforced within a mobile application. By being able to monitor these spaces efficiently, safety and security is increased, overall organization is improved, and those in violation can be enforced.

Benefits to the Venue Parking System

When polled what the most stressful part of going to an event was, respondents typically answered that finding parking and making sure it was a valid parking space was one of the top answers- after answers like getting the tickets and finding time off for the event. Smart parking offers a solution to the struggles of venue parking such as finding a space, understanding the rules and regulations of the parking area, as well as the ability to update payments for the time parked in case a game or concert goes over the time and payment is needed. These systems also offer an open communication system between the operator and the users of the parking spaces. This is beneficial in the event that a car needs to be moved for various reasons, or if a car needs to be updated on time. With real-time updates and communication, the smart parking systems revolutionize the parking industry and allow for a more modern approach to parking.

Benefits of Digital Parking for Venues
  • Easily organize a large number of drivers
  • Provide real-time updates for available spaces
  • Inform users of rules and procedures
  • Cashless payments when needed
  • Open communication network

Digital parking systems offer a wide range of applications from large to small and from commercial to private. When applied to a parking area that sees a large influx of vehicles and guests at specific times such as for a sporting event or a concert, these systems provide a bit of calm and organization to a very chaotic time. From those that are coming in to find parking that is either reserved for them or in a ticketed area to those dropping off and then leaving. There needs to be some kind of system in place to get the job done.
