Toronto puts tens of thousands of people into a few downtown blocks on event nights, and every one of them leaves at the same moment. Parking near Scotiabank Arena, the Rogers Centre or Budweiser Stage is expensive when it is available, and the exit afterwards is the part nobody plans for.
The real cost of driving yourself
- Event parking rates downtown, before you have bought anything else.
- Twenty minutes or more to leave a garage after a sold-out event.
- Someone in the group not drinking all evening.
- A long walk from the only space you could find.
Set against a shared chauffeured vehicle, the arithmetic is closer than most people assume, and the experience is not comparable.
Drop-off and the pickup plan
Getting in is easy. Getting out is the skill. Streets around the venues close or reverse direction after major events, and the obvious pickup point is where everyone else is standing. Our chauffeurs use staging points a short walk clear of the crowd and coordinate by phone, which is consistently faster than waiting in the crush at the main doors.
Events worth booking ahead for
Leafs, Raptors and Blue Jays home games, concerts at Scotiabank Arena and Budweiser Stage, and the film festival in September all create sharp demand. Playoff runs and stadium tours book out days ahead. If your event is on a Friday or Saturday, reserve early.
Groups and corporate hospitality
Client entertainment at a game works far better when the transport is handled. Guests are collected, delivered to the door and taken home afterwards, and the host spends the evening with the clients rather than managing logistics.
