Parking FAQ

The Parking Express Lanes allow a self-serve 'ticketless' option to improve transaction and traffic flow time.

Express Option 1: Insert your credit card upon entry; upon exit insert the same credit card, no parking ticket is  involved.

Express Option 2: take parking ticket at entry; upon exit insert the ticket 'arrow up', then insert the credit card.

Cashier Option 3: a cashier lane is also available if you prefer.

Visa, Mastercard and Amex are accepted in parking as well as cash. We encourage credit card payment as our high speed line is quick and Express Lanes are available.

The garages are not attached but there is a pedestrian walkway between the buildings. It is approximately a five minute walk between buildings.

Exhibitors who park two days or more can guarantee space in the garage for their event by pre-purchasing an exhibitor pass prior to the event. See Exhibitor forms.

Passes are available for pick-up at the MTCC Service Desk on the main exhibit floor during show move-in. When the desk is not staffed, passes are available at the Parking Office at Level 5A of the North building garage and Level 600 in the South building garage.

Upon first entry, take a ticket to enter, bring the ticket to the service desk and exchange it when picking up your pass. After that your pass will be used at the automated exit or entry (i.e. scan pass, no ticket).

A limited number of monthly spaces are available. Contact (416) 585-8202 for further information.
