Downtown Boone Parking Changes for Appalachian State Events

Town of Boone, North Carolina— At its August 13th meeting, the Boone Town Council voted

to implement a uniform two-hour parking limit for all Downtown Boone public parking spaces

during large Appalachian State University events. This initiative is designed to ensure that

parking remains accessible to downtown businesses, their employees, and visitors during periods

of increased demand.

While most downtown meters are already subject to a two-hour limit, locations that previously

permitted extended parking of up to nine hours, including the Queen Street lot, the North Depot

Street lot, and the King Street lot, will now also be restricted to a maximum of two hours on

game days. This parking change will go into effect on September 6th. The multi-hour parking

lots will be subject to this change on the following dates:

September 6th, 2025

October 4th, 2025

October 18th, 2025

November 6th, 2025

November 22nd, 2025

November 29th, 2025

Please note that this schedule is subject to change. A sign will be posted on the multi-hour lot

kiosks either a day in advance or the day of the event, weather dependent, to inform those who

wish to park in those lots ahead of time. For more information on this change, please contact

Town Hall at (828) 268-6200. For more information on parking regulations, please contact the

Parking Department at (828) 268-6229.
