There is a large parking lot across the street (access from Route 60) that provides ample parking for the Saturday morning shows. It's just .50 per hour (if the machine is working) and a quick cut through the alley to the Regent Theatre.
The Regent also offers discounts to area restaurants with evening show tickets. Call for more information.

A Wonderful Way To Spend Saturday Morning

The Regent's Famiy Fun Saturdays are an inexpensive way to see some very good performers. Arrive a bit early, or buy tickets in advance, as shows are popular. In winter, the theater is COLD; bundle up! Before or after showtime, hit Carberry's Bakery or any of the other enticing restaurants and cafes that line Mass. Ave. in Arlington Center.
