Arizona Science Center requests that you secure transportation prior to booking your field trip. 

Buses and oversized vans may drop off students in Heritage and Science Square, entering from North Sixth Street. Waiting vehicles will need to be parked in the Civic East Garage. Parking passes are required and are $6 per vehicle. 

Groups arriving by standard-size vehicle should park in Heritage and Science Park Garage, which is conveniently located at the southeast corner of North Fifth Street and East Monroe Street. Please advise drivers to bring their parking pass to the Information Zone to be validated for a discounted parking rate.

Field trip groups can reserve our lunchroom and/or outdoor eating area in 30-minute increments between 10 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. on weekdays. Our lunchroom can accommodate up to 152 visitors per time slot. 

We recommend field trip groups bring packed lunches as our café is currently closed. You can purchase grab-and-go sandwiches, salads and snacks from our Byte Machines, located in the lobby of Level 1.
