Rivers Casino Pittsburgh is charging a pretty penny to park later this month.
With the 2026 NFL Draft set for Pittsburgh on April 23-25, Rivers Casino is jacking up rates for spots in its parking garage. The casino operated by Chicago-based Rush Street Gaming says spaces for the NFL Draft weekend are going for $500 before taxes and fees.
The Steel City is hosting the NFL Draft for the first time since 1948. Attendance is expected to be stout, as Steelers and other NFL fans descend on the North Shore.
The Draft will be held at Acrisure Stadium, home of the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Point State Park. Rivers Casino is next door, and the resort thinks its 3,800-spot, nine-story parking garage is a winning hand.
$550 Parking
The Rivers Casino Pittsburgh website says the $500 parking package is for four days, Wednesday, April 22, through Saturday, April 25. Holders of the digital parking pass can come and go as they please during the 96 hours.
With taxes, the four-day parking pass comes to $537. The casino website then adds on a $16.11 processing fee to bring the grand total to $553.11.
Rivers says the four-day parking pass is a steal, as the casino plans to charge $250 per day for day-of parking. Day parking is limited to a single entry and exit. The $500 passes must be purchased in advance online.
From the Rivers Casino parking garage, guests can easily access the NFL Draft complex by making the short walk to the stadium and Point State Park. The casino advertises that its parking garage is safe and comfortable, with the facility “well-lit.” All Rivers Casino parking transactions are cashless.
Experience the ultimate convenience with our exclusive 4-day advance purchase self-parking pass. Whether you’re here for the first-round fireworks or the final-day steals, your spot is guaranteed,” the casino website reads.
The Steelers are expected to focus on the offense during the Draft. With QB Aaron Rodgers likely to return, Pittsburgh is focused on a wide receiver, an offensive lineman, and an offensive tackle.
Pittsburgh has the 21st pick in the first and second rounds of the Draft. The Steelers have three picks in the third round.
Indiana superstar Fernando Mendoza, the Heisman winner, is nearly a sure thing to be the first pick and go to the Las Vegas Raiders.
