RESTROOMS

Restrooms are located in the following areas:

• South White Street behind the stage across from The Cotton Company

PARKING

Free parking is available along several side streets and parking lots, including Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. But be careful, as some parking lots may look public but are actually private, like the Renaissance Plaza parking lot. To avoid any issues, make sure to read all the signage in the parking lot to determine if it’s public or private. Remember that private lots are intended for business patrons only, while public lots that are open to Friday Night on White attendees will be clearly marked.

WHAT TO BRING

Don’t forget to bring lawn chairs and blankets to sit and relax on South White Street, where everyone gathers to enjoy the sights and sounds of Friday Night on White. Just be sure not to put chairs on the sidewalks.
