PARKING AND SHUTTLES

Hello Runners,

 

We are getting close to race day!

 

We would like to start briefing you on some instructions that are extremely important so you have a smooth and enjoyable racing experience. 

 

Pre Race Packet Pick Up:

Downtown Events Center

416 NE 1st St (with access near 301 E. Broward Blvd), Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301

8:00AM - 6:00PM

When you arrive at the Downtown events center - the city parking is not free, you must pay for parking. 

 

Race Day:

There will be two separate start lines.

The Liquid Youth Half Marathon Presented By Baptist Health 

Start Line Location:  100 SW 1st Ave, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33394

SHUTTLE BUSSES

We will have shuttle busses available starting at 4:15am departing from the Las Olas Beach Parking Garage and  going to the half marathon start line.  - If you are a 5K/10K runner - DO NOT GET ON THIS BUS! These busses are for Half Marathon Runners Only. No spectators will be allowed on the busses, you must have a bib number on to get on the bus to the start line. If you do not get on the last bus leaving to the start line at 5:50am, you will not make it to the start line on time. We will also have a limited race day packet pick up at the half marathon start time which will close at 6:00am - If you are on the last shuttle bus and did not pick up your race number yet, arrive earlier and get on an earlier shuttle bus. 

You also have the option to park down town by the start line and after you finish you can take the shuttle bus back to start line area. The busses will start running again from the finish line to the start line at 8:00am until 10:00am. 

If you feel that you will arrive after 5:30am, it is strongly advise to park close to the start line at a garage downtown and not at the beach. There will be thousands of cars in the area at this time and lots of traffic. It may take the busses longer than estimated traffic out of our control. 

 

** The Shuttle Bus stop at the Finish area is located at the intersection of South Birch Road & Banyan Street.  Use the following address for a direct location:  Las Olas Garage, 200 Las Olas Cir, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33316  - Park in the garage and the busses will be in front on Birch

Start Line Parking options:

** Our recommendation is to choose a parking option that is a bit further away from the Start.  There will be less traffic and congestion making it quicker and easier to park on race morning.
