On Foot
The Visitors Center is east of the Crown Center Shops, across Grand. We are closest to the Hallmark Cards headquarters building on the hill; southeast of the fountains, Legoland and Sea Life.
Once you arrive at the circle drive (25th and McGee) near the Hallmark Headquarters building, look for our Visitors Center purple welcome signage along our facade, just next to Kaleidoscope.
Accessible Parking
Standard-sized vehicles may park on the south side of 25th Street in the designated Hallmark Visitors Center/Kaleidoscope accessible parking spots with a provided Hallmark permit. Obtain a dated parking permit from the front desk Ambassadors within the Visitors Center to display on the dash of your vehicle; good for the full day of your visit.
