ADA INFORMATION

Getting to US Airways Center

US Airways Center is located in downtown Phoenix at 201 East Jefferson Street. The light rail offers accessible and affordable transportation options for any guest.

In partnership with METRO light rail, US Airways Center and the Phoenix Suns have established the "Rail Ride Event" program, which allows guests who purchase a ticket to an event at US Airways Center to ride METRO light rail at no additional cost, on the day of the event. To learn more, click here.

Bus Stops and Light Rail Stations - All are on accessible routes to and from US Airways Center (USAC).

Drop-Off Lot

If you are looking to purchase tickets on non-event days, you can park at the USAC parking garage or pull into a metered spot just west of the building on both sides of 1st Street. Remember that this is metered parking and citations are issued if the meter expires.

If you need to drop someone off the day of an event, you can do so just south of Jefferson, on 3rd Street. There is a green curb that allows your passenger to enter through the east side entrance. If you are dropping off someone to pick up tickets at Will Call, you can drop them off on 1st Street in the pullout located between Madison and Jefferson Streets. This is a drop off zone only; vehicles are subject to citations if they are parked there or are left unattended.

Accessible Parking

US Airways Center features an attached 700-car garage located on the west side of the building. The entrance is at 1st Street & Madison. The garage has 31 parking spaces designated for vehicles displaying a disabled plate or placard. Nearby garages include the Jefferson Street Garage and the Chase Field Garage. All three of these garages have more wheelchair accessible parking than required by the ADA but the demand for these is very high.

All parking, including accessible parking, is on a first-come/first-serve basis. Often, the US Airway Center, Chase Field, and Jefferson Street Garages pre-sell parking as part of their events. As a result, the public parking spaces (both standard & ADA) are limited.

For your convenience, if the accessible parking at any of these garages is full, a sign will be posted before you enter to inform you in advance. Hopefully, this helps you quickly determine if you need to seek out another garage.

Parking passes for the Jefferson Street Garage can be pre-purchased per the following:

• For events at Chase Field, click here.
• For events at US Airways Center, click here.

Keep in mind that the parking passes sold are for general parking and not specifically accessible parking. Again, this means that early arrival is always recommended.

If you have a parking placard or plate that allows you to use an accessible parking space and you do not need an access aisle for a wheelchair, scooter or walker, please consider using a standard space that is close to the entrances or elevators. Though all of our parking garages have more than the number of accessible spaces required by the ADA, the demand for these routinely exceeds the number available. This helps those who really need an access aisle to transfer from their vehicle to a mobility device. Thank you for your consideration!

Accessible Features for Guests with Disabilities

The US Airways Center is committed to providing every guest with a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Throughout our facility, efforts have and continue to be made to ensure this is true for our guests with disabilities as well.

Wheelchair accessible seating is offered at all price points, on a first-come first-served basis. Tickets for accessible seating can be purchased by calling 602-379-7800. Press #1 or #2 for your language preference then press #2 for accessible seating tickets. A Ticket Sales Representative will be with you shortly. Important considerations when choosing your seating:

• If you are able/prefer to get out of your wheelchair or scooter, we have areas with informal storage that are on a first-come first-served basis. These can be found in 106w, 110w, 118w, 122w and all upper concourse sections. See the map below for details. 
• If you simply need seating that requires no stairs, we have “Limited Mobility/Ambulatory Accessible” seats that do not require the use of a single step and allow 3 (or maybe more) companions to sit right next to you, based on availability. These are in Row 20 of the main concourse and Row 2 in the upper concourse. There are often more options for these, if they work for you.
• If you have a large companion dog, it may be best to get wheelchair accessible seating so aisle ways are not blocked.
• If you need to be close to a family/companion restroom or elevator, see below for details on their locations.
