The Waterloo Arts Fest is in ONE WEEK! Driving to the Fest? Don’t worry about parking - take our FREE SHUTTLE! Head to the huge parking lot on the South side of the highway at 15700 South Waterloo Rd. (Jergens & the Cleveland Food Bank) to safely park and catch the shuttle. It drops you off at the festival’s West End (Calcutta & Waterloo) and runs continuously from 11:00am - 8:00pm.

There is also street parking throughout the surrounding neighborhood - but remember, Waterloo Road is closed from Calcutta Ave to E 161st St and E 156th is closed from Lucknow to Calcutta - so plan accordingly.

Riding your bike? There are plenty of bike racks throughout the area - but please walk your bike while inside the festival grounds.

Big thanks to the Cleveland Food Bank and Jergens, Inc. for letting us use their lots!
