United Center parking
The Bulls and the Blackhawks share this building. Read transit before a lot. The full building page is the United Center guide. The same notes sit onparking by venue.
Transit first
There is no Metra stop at the door. CTA says the arena is two blocks south and one block east of the Green Line Damen stop, and two blocks south and three blocks west of Ashland/Lake. The Blue Line Illinois Medical District stop is a few blocks south; use the Damen exit and walk north. Bus #19 is the United Center Express. Buses #20, #9, #50, and #126 also stop nearby.
Coupon-only lots
Because of 1901 Project construction, the Blackhawks page says coupon-only parking is in Lots A, B, C, F, and MXC. Preferred lot passes use those same lots.
Drive-up lots
Drive-up parking is in Lots W and M west of Damen, and Lots L, R, T, P, and E east of Wood. ALT lot passes use W, M, R, T, P, and E. Blackhawks lots open one hour before gates.
Uber Zone and ADA
The FAQ says official lots are reached from Damen Avenue, Madison Street, Adams Street, Warren Boulevard, Wood Street, Monroe Street, and Washington Street. The Uber Zone is at Madison and Wood, in Lot E. On game days it opens two hours before the game and stays open up to one hour after. ADA parking is in Lots C and H. If the north entrances are slow, the page says to try Gates 6 and 7 on the south side.

The Blackhawks parking page recommends booking ahead on SpotHero and says rates can be up to 50% off drive-up. That is the team’s line. This site does not link SpotHero. An affiliate link may be added later, once an account exists. There is no code.
