Event-day answers for The Spire

FanProof verdictFor The Spire in Kingston, use the William Street ramp or the step-free Sydenham Street parking-lot entrance. The Performance Hall has six wheelchair locations on the lower floor, with companion chairs supplied by the usher; balcony seating requires steps. Three accessible parking spaces at each entrance cannot be reserved, so do not assume one is held with your ticket.

Parking At A Glance

Parking difficulty

Downtown street/garage parking; limited accessible spaces

What to do
The current owner page identifies Chown Memorial Parking Garage about a four-minute walk away and 150–160 West Street parking about five minutes away. Check current fees, enforcement and closing times; these walking estimates do not reserve a space.
Best option
Choose a permitted downtown lot or street space that fits your event’s finish time. The owner lists three designated accessible spaces at William Street and three at Sydenham Street, none reservable; confirm the entrance and seating route in advance.
Avoid
Do not assume a large free venue lot or reservable accessible parking. Check posted restrictions and the return walk, and do not select balcony seating if you need a step-free audience position.
