There is ample parking for guests visiting the SAP Center for games and events. There are two dedicated parking lots with more than 1,500 spaces and entrances located on Santa Clara Street and Julian Street. These are paid spots costing $10-$25 (cash only) per vehicle, depending on the event. Visitors can also park at one of the nearby garages or street parking spots, that are cheaper, like the San Pedro Square garage for just $7 on event days. The SAP Center doors open 75 minutes before Sharks games and about 1 hour before other events -- so be sure to arrive early.
