Events and long weekends: getting around Buenos Aires by car

How to plan the car, parking and return when the city has events.

Events and long weekends: getting around Buenos Aires by car

Events and long weekends change the pace of Buenos Aires. There is more traffic, more car demand and less parking availability in the busiest areas.

At American Rent a Car the quote shows the daily rate and the guarantee. Pickup is arranged at Nordelta and Downtown.

Book early

For a long weekend, a cultural event or a national date, the fleet moves quickly. If you have your dates, get a quote and confirm the category. If the calendar does not show your flight or time, message us on WhatsApp.

Getting around the city

A car avoids depending on transfers at peak hours, but it also requires planning where to park. Before leaving, check the event time and the parking area. We do not publish toll or parking prices that are not confirmed.

Before you leave

Check the route, the event time and where you will park. If the event ends late, leave the car in a licensed parking lot and avoid closed streets. Do not drive if you have been drinking.

Driving back at night

At night, prefer well-lit avenues and avoid areas with poor visibility. The car must be returned clean and with the same fuel level. If you return to the airport, arrange delivery in advance.

Parking

Events concentrate cars in a few blocks. Book a parking lot near the venue or arrive early. Do not leave objects in sight and check that the car is locked.

Traffic and closed streets

Before leaving, check traffic and streets closed for the event. If the route includes highways, check the time and carry the necessary fuel.

What to bring

  • Minimum age: 21.
  • Valid driver license from your country.
  • National ID or passport.
  • Credit card for the guarantee.

If you travel with children, ask for the child seat when booking. If you arrive by plane, send the flight number and time.

Return

The car must be returned clean and with the same fuel level. There is a one-hour grace period. After that, half a day is charged and from four hours, a full day is charged.
