Parking is available at  N 47° 44.398 W 121° 59.270 which is the parking lot for the event, and also for McCormick park, Depot park and the Duvall Police department, it is a smallish lot, and space can be limited.  The only other parking is located on Main Street near, N 47° 44.407 W 121° 59.173  however parking there will require a slightly longer walk that includes a fairly steep hill.   If you miss out on a spot in the lot, you can always drop off your passengers and your stuff in the lot and then park on the street.

Once you are parked you will need to proceed to the Northend of the parking lot and head west on the walking path.  Once you get to the Snoqualmie Valley Trail (for any locals that maybe attending we know this as the old Railroad grade), you will need head to the right and the Duvall SummerStage will be on your left, which is where the event will be held. We are talking less than 300 feet of fairly flat walking on a well maintained gravel path, from the main parking lot
