The Music Center at Strathmore
5301 Tuckerman Lane, North Bethesda, MD 20852Concert Parking
Parking is located in the Grosvenor-Strathmore Metro Garage off of Tuckerman Lane. Parking is complimentary for ticketed events in the Music Center's Concert Hall. At the end of each ticketed event in the Music Center's Concert Hall, the exit gates to the garage will be open for 30 minutes to exit the garage.
Metro has eliminated live exit attendants. They have been replaced with a Customer Service Station in every parking exit lane with an intercom, video/camera connection and a credit card and Smartrip Card reader. This station will connect a patron with Metro’s Parking Operations Control Center. The parking barrier gates are opened and closed remotely from the POCC and customers can interact live with POCC Office Staff through the in-lane Customer Service Stations. If you leave before, or up to 90 minutes after this 30 minute period, you must show your ticket stub to the POCC Office Staff.
To access the Music Center from the Grosvenor-Strathmore Metro garage, walk across the glass-enclosed sky bridge located on the 4th level.
At non-performance times, Monday–Friday, parking in the garage is $5.10 and must be paid using a credit card or a Metro SmarTrip card, available for a one-time fee of $5 at all Metro Stations. Money can be added to this card for unlimited usage at the Grosvenor-Strathmore Metro station.

A little more than a decade ago a group of visionary Maryland leaders had a transformational idea—to create a music center at Strathmore with the world-class Baltimore Symphony Orchestra as the founding partner and resident orchestra. With this new home, the BSO became the nation's only major orchestra committed to two year-round venues in different metropolitan areas.
Now in our 17th season, we welcome you to enjoy the BSO at the Music Center at Strathmore. With its soaring glass walls and windows throughout, beautiful natural light fills interior spaces of the Music Center, and the accents of natural wood make the spaces warm and inviting. Inside, the 1,976-seat concert hall is well-known throughout the industry for its pitch-perfect acoustics.
Please contact Patron Support at 877.276.1444 for more information.
Located on the Promenade Level in the Music Center, Allegro Kitchen is where our culinary artists shine with flexible, creative menus built around local, seasonal ingredients. The mouth-watering dining experience begins 90 minutes before each Concert Hall performance. Plus, bars are open before the show and at intermission, with sweet and savory bites, beer, wine, and our signature cocktails.
Offerings are refreshed monthly and new items. See the latest menus here each month.
See you at Strathmore. The arts are everywhere—even on your plate!
