Parking can sometimes be difficult. The Parking Garages are a great idea, but take forever to get out of unless you are on the ground floor. There are many signs and different prices for parking around the event. Most will not exceed 5 dollars. GO with one of the options that are on the side of town you will be leaving to. Traffic can become a standstill quickly with people trying to get on the road they are trying to find. A lot of one way roads downtown will lead to additional frustration, but keep your cool and remain safe.
If you are going down for a concert event at the field or even part of the Fort for Fitness events that take place at Parkview field the setup and parking situation may differ.
