PARKING INFORMATION

The street parking around the competition venues will have mostly paid, metered parking that is monitored and if you do not move your car entirely out of the timed parking area after the designated time limit has expired, you may be subject to a parking fine.

For participants and teams that have organised private transport, the best option is to load and unload at the allocated venue spaces and pre-arrange a parking space, this can be booked online and paid for in advance. Some private parking companies around the area are listed below:
