Driving into downtown Greensboro

Most visitors will drive in using the main highways that feed into downtown Greensboro, then follow surface streets toward North Elm Street. Because specific turn‑by‑turn routes depend on where you are coming from, use the venue’s full address in your navigation app and confirm that your route ends on North Elm Street in the 300 block.

If your GPS suggests a slightly different final approach, check that it is still delivering you into this same cluster of streets around North Elm Street rather than sending you around the outer edge of downtown. Because event‑night traffic patterns and lane closures can change by performance, the safest approach is to follow posted signs and any temporary traffic control near the venue once you are within a few blocks, even if that differs slightly from your app’s last instruction.

Event-specific arrival details to double-check

While the address and surrounding street grid for Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts stay the same, several arrival details can change from one performance to another. These include which entrance is used for your ticketed section, whether any nearby streets such as North Davie Street, Bellemeade Street, or North Greene Street have temporary closures or lane changes, and which garages or decks are recommended or reserved for certain events. Because of this, always read your ticket and pre‑event information carefully. Many organizers will note preferred parking decks by name, indicate which side of the building to approach, or list any special instructions for buses, rideshare, or group drop‑offs. If your ticket mentions a specific garage like the Church Street Parking Deck or Lincoln Financial Parking Garage, confirm that your navigation is set to that facility’s street rather than only to the venue’s main address.
