Location
Copaken Stage is located in the heart of the new downtown Power & Light District. The address is One H&R Block Way (the corner of 13th & Walnut) and it is adjacent to the new H&R Block World Headquarters.
There are numerous restaurants and bars steps from the theatre. Most are open until 3:00 AM so feel free to eat before or after the show.
Valet parking is located in several areas in the district including the corner of 13th & Main next to the H&R Block building. Valet parking is $6.
If you are attending a performance on a night when there is a performance at the Sprint Center arena, we do suggest that you plan to arrive early as traffic can be heavy during these times.
Parking for Rep patrons is in the H&R Block parking garage, under the building. There are over 1,000 parking spots located in this garage so you should not have trouble finding a spot. Park on level 2 through 5 (there is no elevator on level 1) and enter the building through the H&R Block center elevator which will take you up to the lobby. The garage is accessible from both Main and Walnut between 13th & 14th streets. Patrons may park in the H&R Block garage starting at 5:00 pm on weeknights and all day Saturday and Sunday on performance days only and only if you have tickets for that performance! If you arrive before 6:00 on weeknights, please press the button at the gate and announce that you are there for the Rep performance. This should allow ample time for you to grab something to eat prior to the show!
