There are 2 parking lots the next block over, Pearl St I think. Top of the Hill parking that is cash only and across pearl street they open up a 2nd that accepts cash or credit cards. There are also parking garages within walking distance as well as on street parking. I have been to several summer concerts and shows amd have never had an issue finding something at either of the 1st two lots or within reasonable walking distance. Hope this helps
If you have the money for tickets to the event don't cheap-out ; pay to park in the nearby parking garages.
Cumberland Ave should offer on street parking with less then a 15 min walk to Merrill. I'm not sure what night they sweep the street, but they won't to until after 10 pm on that night.
Hard to find parking.go extra early too.
