Where to Park
The Boston Ballet studios are located in the South End of Boston,
nestled amongst brownstone residences, shops and restaurants.
Unfortunately, we do not have our own parking lot and as a result,
parking can be extremely difficult. If you are driving to the
audition, plan ahead to leave time for finding a legal spot on the
street or use one of the local parking garages/lots:
- Atelier 505 Parking Garage: Located under the Calderwood
Pavilion. Entrance on Warren Avenue, at the rear of the facility.
Approximately a two block walk to the studios.

the weekends between Fri. 4pm and Mon. 6:45am. Cars must be parked
between the lines or they will be towed. Entrance on Dartmouth
Street. Approximately a one block walk to the studios.
- Garage at 100 Clarendon Street: Attached to the Back Bay Amtrak
Train Station. Approximately a six block walk to the studios.
- Open Lots on Berkeley Street: There are two open parking lots
