Due to construction at Nissan Stadium, there will be no parking available at the finish line of the 2024 St. Jude Classic Rock ‘n’ Roll Running Series Nashville Hall-Marathon on Saturday.
The finish line is located outside the north end zone of the stadium. In the past, approximately 6,000 parking spaces were available at the stadium.
Marathon officials recommend that participants and spectators use downtown parking lots or satellite parking lots.
The start line for the marathon (26.1 miles) and half marathon (13.1 miles) will again be at 8th and Broadway. Both races start at 7:20 a.m. The routes for both races are the same as last year.
Parking will be available on Sunday at the stadium in lots E and F for the KiDS ROCK, Doggie Dash and 1 Mile Run/Walk.
Officials expect more than 25,000 attendees at all events this year. There were nearly 24,000 participants last year.
