Parking tips for the El Mocambo from a local resident in the area:

Parking along Spadina is $2.50 per hour till 9pm, then it's free 9pm onwards!

Be careful of certain residential streets that only allow parking with permits.

If there is no parking spaces along Spadina, then the next best place would probably be paid parking in Dragon City and/or Chinatown Centre. Parking at any of these two places will be about 10 minutes walk to The El Mocambo. There are a few free parking spaces behind Chinatown Centre and on the side streets of Spadina, south of Dundas.

There is a green p at college & bathurst and also Far east auto park at dundas & spadina, and likely more we're not aware of.  All the best, and try to car pool!
