FanProof verdictBuy the correct event’s advance parking pass if driving to the on-site lot, or check whether overflow shuttles are running from Elmwood Park Garage at Williamson Road/Tazewell Avenue. The owner says shuttles run for selected larger events, not every performance, and downtown garage parking charges may still apply. Confirm through 540-853-5483.

Getting thereArrival timing, parking, transit and getting home
Localtime
When to arrive
Use the exact performance’s door time and allow time for the final campus walk, screening and ticket assistance. Box-office hours and event-day 10 am opening are ticket-service hours, not audience doors. Choose designated accessible seating before purchase; the operator cannot guarantee relocation from a non-accessible ticket on the night.
Transit & the journey home
Route to Berglund Center at 710 Williamson Road, Roanoke, and follow signs for the Performing Arts Theatre rather than the separate Coliseum. The current dedicated parking page identifies accessible spaces in Lot B and ramps between the theatre and Coliseum plaza. Its general trip page still names Lot A; confirm the current event’s approach through 540-853-5483. Coordinate the exact theatre seat/companion route before buying.
Confirm return service and last departures for your event’s finish time.
Parking
Parking At A Glance
Parking difficulty
Advance parking pass or cash at lot entry
- What to do
- The dedicated parking page currently lists $10 plus taxes/fees in advance, or $15 cash at lot entry on the day, subject to availability. Advance passes can be bought through the event page or box office until show day. The general trip page still carries an older $5 paragraph; use the dedicated parking instructions and your actual event notice.
- Best option
- Buy the correct event’s advance parking pass if driving to the on-site lot, or check whether overflow shuttles are running from Elmwood Park Garage at Williamson Road/Tazewell Avenue. The owner says shuttles run for selected larger events, not every performance, and downtown garage parking charges may still apply. Confirm through 540-853-5483.
- Avoid
- Do not rely on the older $5 paragraph, assume a shuttle operates for every show, or arrive at the lot with only a payment card when paying the posted $15 day-of cash charge. The dedicated page names accessible Lot B while the general trip page says Lot A; confirm current signs and event instructions.

Accessibility
Berglund asks guests needing wheelchair-accessible seating or limited-mobility accommodation to buy the DESIGNATED ACCESSIBLE SECTION. Confirm the exact Performing Arts Theatre seat, companion arrangement and full route with its box office at 540-853-2510; the shared policy page does not detail every theatre route.

Inside the Venue At A Glance
01
MixedViewing and venue layout
The owner’s November 2025 PDF labels theatre rows and seat numbers, with accessible Orchestra Left/Right Row R positions. Compare it with the actual show’s live inventory and retained fan-photo gallery. Do not apply the neighboring Coliseum’s arena layout to this theatre.
Inside the venuePayment, water and the atmosphere
Payment
Berglund’s policy image makes CONCESSIONS cashless, accepting credit/debit. Its FAQ separately describes lot-entry PARKING as CASH ONLY when space remains, with advance passes available. Confirm your event’s parking/payment arrangements at 540-853-2510; Elmwood Park has separate rules.
Water & drinks
Berglund prohibits ordinary outside food/beverages and glass, metal or plastic containers, including bottles/flasks. Coordinate necessary medical/infant liquids; no ordinary sealed-water or empty-bottle exception is stated.
The experience
- Best for: Berglund Performing Arts Theatre visitors matching numbered seats and accessible Row R locations to their actual performance, with current parking and concession-payment information.
- Watch out for: The owner’s displayed clear-bag graphic sets a 12 × 18 × 6 inch limit and says purses, backpacks and diaper bags must also be clear. Identify medical bags with staff and arrange any necessary accommodation in advance. All bags are screened; outside food/drink and recording are prohibited. Re-entry is not permitted. Concession stands accept debit/credit cards; day-of parking is separately cash-only.
Why It Works
- ✓An owner PDF identifies numbered seats, lettered rows and accessible orchestra positions.
- ✓Dedicated parking guidance states the advance rate and cash-only day-of alternative.
- ✓Current policies explain re-entry and the need to buy designated accessible seating in advance.
Know Before You Book
- ×The general trip page conflicts with dedicated parking instructions on rate and accessible lot.
- ×Overflow shuttles are event-dependent and downtown garage charges may still apply.
- ×Concessions are cashless while on-site day-of parking requires cash; plan both payment methods.
