CES - How Much For Parking?
written by John Chow on January 9th, 2007
Yes, it’s true. This is how much they want for parking during the International Consumer Electronics Show. Is that crazy or what? I guess I shouldn’t be shocked. But man, that’s a lot of money to park a car for the day! This is why I request companies to send me a limo! No way I am paying that!
Here are some more photos Las Vegas Convention Center and 2007 the International CES.

Looks like its shaping up to be a quality event. It also looks very similar to the DigitalLife I attended in New York a few months ago.
Parking is big business, maybe I should retire from internet work and buy up parking lots.
Cheers

$40? Pshaw! Daytona Beach FLA, parking near the motor speedway is $100 for the day! (during race events of course)
Reply to this commentHow’s about prying that $40 piece of wood off and showing us the “normal” price?
New York City parking is somewhere in the neighborhood of $20 per hour.
Reply to this commentyou should have the CES in Melbourne, pay $10 for parking, beautiful, I dont know whether the Melbourne Exhibition Centre is large enough to hold the event though
Reply to this comment$40 dollars for a day’s parking !!
Does car pooling work there at all ?

Reply to this commentJohn,
Your rss advertisement “Join My AGLOCO Network! Get Paid To Suft The Net!” has a typo. “Suft” — “Surf”
Reply to this commentCan you say @$$ r@p3? I always thought it was ridiculous that they charge $25 for Spurs games and college football at the Alamodome.
Reply to this commentI was just thinking, wasn’t CES going out of business or were they able to bring back the bigger companies, I remember a year or something ago that they were having troubles staying afloat and bringing in the vendors.
Or am I thinking Comdex? Though with 140,000 attendees that isn’t a convention that is having troubles now is it?
Reply to this commentParking in you hometown must be cheap because I didnt think $40 was bad at all for all day!
Reply to this commentWow…and I thought Canucks parking was ridiculous…
Reply to this commentlol for 40 dollar you can park your car 2 weeks at the airport here
Reply to this commentWell Nomar, for that price you can only park it like half a week at Amsterdam airport, horrible ripoff as well, but still better than this 40$ for one day pricing
Reply to this comment$40 is not a bad price at all if it includes valet service.
Reply to this commentLimo ride as an alternative? I don’t know if that’s gonna be cheaper than $40.. Though if the company pays
Reply to this commentYea I’m sure the companies pay.
Reply to this comment$40 sounds expensive, but parking at any major event here (near GM Place, etc.) is at least $20, so that doesn’t really surprise me.
Reply to this commentTyler - It was Comdex that went under. CES never had a problem. One of the reasons Comdex went under because of the growth of CES.
Reply to this commentToday I lifted that $40 sign to see how much it really was on a normal day; $10.00.

Hey John, I notice some of your recent photo-filled posts don’t have goog ads, do you manually disable them for certain posts I presume? As they’re automatically embedded using that wordpress plugin you mentioned usually right?
