LANSING, Ill. (May 27, 2019) – Though Fox Pointe Director Tony Troncozo did not provide an estimated capacity that the Fox Pointe venue can accommodate for shows and events, Village Communications Director Ken Reynolds calculates that 2,500 people could stand in the lawn and pavilion area. Because the venue is nestled in an area that is both residential and commercial, ensuring adequate parking for that many people has been a priority throughout the development of the project.
A combination of parking lots and on-street parking is available within the approximately two-mile circumference around Fox Pointe. The Village has released a map showing nearly 900 parking spots currently available, with another 100 to be added this summer. The map is designed to make these pockets of parking easy to find by out-of-town guests as well as Lansing residents.
