Parking is easy with Spot Hero
We recommend booking convenient and affordable parking in advance through SpotHero – the nation’s leading parking reservation app. The event start and finish areas are in separate locations, about 2 miles apart, so you can choose to park closer to either area, or between the two venues.
We recommend parking near the finish line (Maryland Ave SW & 3rd St SW). There are ample parking spaces and garages around that area, and parking in this area allows you to enjoy the Finish Festival without having to travel back to the start once the event is over.
To reserve your parking spot, visit the DC Bike Ride Start Line SpotHero Parking Page and book a spot with rates up to 50% off drive-up.
Official Hotel Partner
We have partnered with the AC Hotel by Marriott Washington DC Downtown to provide accommodation for those traveling to DC for the Ride. AC Hotel Washington DC Downtown is steps from the White House, Dupont Circle, and less than two miles from DC Bike Ride start line. Through this partnership, DC Bike Ride participants get discounted nightly rates at hotel partner between September 8-11.
