How do I get to the event if I have a disability or chronic illness?

• Attendees who are driving to the event will be able to drop off on Constitution Avenue. Please remember that parking around the National Mall is limited and often has to be reserved in advance.

• The DC Metro is ADA accessible. However, they often do a lot of renovations during the weekend. We highly suggest you check their website the night before to make sure that lines and elevators are running on the day of the event. You can check on Metro accessibility issues at: https://www.wmata.com/service/status/

• There are accessible Taxis, which you can call in advanced or through Lyft and get dropped off at Constitution Ave. Taxi companies include DC Taxi and Yellow Transit. If you request a Lyft driver and need a van with a lift, make sure that you make that distinction in the APP.
