Parking

For most events, parking is included when you purchase a ticket at the Indian Wells Theater. If this is the case, signage will be provided on the parking ticket machines in the parking lot. However, you can also call the Indian Wells Theater to inquire. The box office is closed for the summer, so please call the university at (760) 341-2883.

If you are visiting the Box Office to purchase a ticket or inquire about upcoming performances, you may park in 30 minute parking clearly designated in the parking lot.

General Information

If parking is not included for an event on campus, parking permits are required to park at the Palm Desert Campus and the California State University of San Bernardino. Permits are required Monday through Sunday, 24 hours per day.

Parking Enforcement

Parking rules and regulations are designed to: provide orderly parking for faculty, staff, students and visitors; protect pedestrians; and to ensure emergency access to all buildings. Violation of these regulations can result in parking citations or immobilization or towing of your vehicle. ONLY the Department of Parking Services has the authority to waive or grant exceptions to these regulations. Parking Services will make every effort to ensure that a parking space is available to anyone who purchases a parking permit through enforcement of these regulations. Due to the number of parking spaces on campus, enforcement of parking regulations is important even during off-peak periods to ensure availability during peak periods. A concerted effort is made to enforce regulations as uniformly as possible.

Daily Parking Permits

Daily permits may be purchased at the permit dispenser located in the parking lot. You must have exact cash, $5.
