Parking cost at Toyota Music Factory in Las Colinas

Orange line from medical district to Toyota Music Factory
Any experience taking the dart to concerts on this route? My friend and I are planning to attend the Glass Animal concert on Monday 9/13 and are considering taking it to avoid parking and Uber/Lyft surge charging. This would also allow both of us to have a couple drinks.…

What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
The Irving Convention Center at Las Colinas is generally praised for its clean, spacious, and well-organized facilities, making it suitable for large events like conventions and fan expos. Attendees appreciate the attentive staff and thoughtful amenities like complimentary water. However, some visitors have noted issues with handicapped parking accessibility and inconsistent seating arrangements for certain events, particularly concerts.
"NOT HANDICAPPED FRIENDLY...
While the facility itself is nice enough every time I've been there they block off the handicapped parking. I watched a man with one leg and a walker have to go across the unlevel parking garage to his car with great effort when there was 10 empty handicapped parking spots open at ground level. They did allow an electric car in to that area to park and charge so I guess the discrimination is only for handicapped and not EV owners...."

"The convention center is good, but the concert I attended recently by a singer was not a good experience. He kept all of the people waiting for almost 2 hours. The show is set to start at 7:30 pm, people waited till 9:30 pm and yet the singer didn’t show up. No seating. But the show ended at right time 11:30 pm 🤣. Good experience for not visit again😅. If the convention center hall have proper seating that would be great."
