Weekday Visitors
For weekday visitors of the church, we encourage you to park in one of the “Church Parking Only” spaces right outside of Lot D. If those spaces are full, please park in Lot C, then check in with the front desk on how to be logged in the system.

Special Event Traffic Flow
Occasionally our lots will have reserved parking for a special event like a funeral, wedding, or concert.
Accessible Parking & Reserved Parking Area
Nashville First’s Parking Lot A (between 7th Avenue and McGavock) and Lot C (the large back lot) have limited accessible parking spaces available and marked. All the spaces in Parking Lot D (the gated lot by the playground) have been marked off for accessible parking only. We ask that only people with an official placard, license plate, or decal park in those spaces. If you are driving someone who needs accessible parking, but your car does not have a hangtag, please drop the person off at a door or the circular driveway, then park in a regular spot. This will help us make spots available for those with the most need, and it will prevent you from getting a parking ticket. If you need help getting a special tag, please see the Tennessee Department of Revenue on how to apply.
What if I get a ticket?
Nashville First and Premier Parking make every effort to not ticket church guests. However, sometimes mistakes happen. If for some reason you do get a ticket, please bring it to Matt Malone at the front desk. He will get it taken care of for you.
Safety
Our parking lot is monitored by Premier staff and the church’s security team. However, as a precaution, please do not leave any valuables visible in your car and always lock your car at all times. If you see anything questionable or feel unsafe, please let a security team member know right away.
Paid Parking
All lots are open to the public. Lot A across 7th Avenue behind the Custom House, Lot B at the corner of 7th & McGavock, and Lot C which is the bigger lot directly behind the church building. Our lots are managed by Metropolis Parking Company (615-238-2250). In each lot there are signs with QR codes that you scan after you park to be able to pay on your phone. Pricing is set by Metropolis and varies depending on events happening around downtown.
If you ever have a question about parking, please contact Matt.Malone@NashvilleFirst.org.
