PARKING AND TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS

The Sagamore Pendry Baltimore is located in the very popular historic Fell’s Point. Because this thriving neighborhood has so much to offer, parking can sometimes be limited. When possible, we recommend Ubering or finding shared or public transportation.

If you plan to drive, metered street parking is available surrounding the Pendry. There are also several garages within a reasonable walk from the Pendry at 1530 Thames Street, 950 South Caroline Street, and 805 South Caroline Street. 

The Pendry will also provide valet parking at a discounted rate of $15/vehicle. Drivers must present an opera valet voucher (available at will call) at valet to receive the discount.  PLEASE NOTE: The pre- and post-concert rush will be busy. The Pendry expects to move as efficiently as possible. However, valeting nearly 100 cars through Fell’s Point’s busy and narrow historic streets, and getting that many cars out of the valet garage in a timely manner, is challenging. Please expect to wait. We thank you in advance for your patience.

Make a night or a weekend of it! 

Join us in our Grand Staircase before Passion at the Pendry with Maryland Opera —Highlighting an array of canapes, food stations and an open beer & wine bar.  Get tickets to the reception here.
