As DemiCon is now held at the Hotel Fort Des Moines, parking and one-way streets may be an issue,
hopefully the map above will help.
Our new location offers parking on the street as well as four parking garages.
Some of the parking garages are accessible via the Des Moines
skywalk system.
On-street parking meters are $0.40 per hour during the enforced times. However,
the parking meters are free after 6:00 PM on weekdays, and are free all-day on
the weekends.

The parking Ramp directly across from the Hotel Fort Des Moines to the East
is an automated ramp. It costs $6.00 dollars a night and you must pay a
machine in the ramp elevator lobby to receive an exit ticket. That ticket is
then fed into a machine which will raise the exit bar, allowing your car to
leave the ramp. The Hotel does offer the service of paying them the parking
rate or adding it to your hotel bill and the Hotel will give you your exit
ticket. The entrance to this parking lot is from 10th street.
NOTE: If you do NOT use this ramp, make sure to tell the Hotel so you
do not get charged for it.
Hourly rates: $1.25 for the first hour, $0.75 for each additional hour with a $6.00 maximum for a 24 hour period.
No skywalk access.

The Allied Employee Parking Structure at 11th and Walnut is directly
behind/West of the Hotel Fort Des Moines. Enter from the South on Mulberry
St. This ramp has a manned exit booth. However, since the exit booth is not
staffed beginning later Friday night and through Sunday, because weekends
are free, attendees who leave during these times should not be charged to
exit the parking ramp.
Hourly rates: $1.00 for the first half hour, daily maximum and lost ticket fee is $14.00.
Free on weekends.
Skywalk access.
