There are a number of car parks nearby but space can be limited so please allow enough time to park and walk in. We recommend these carparks – Peel Street, Coppergate (this shuts at 7pm), Shambles (Q-Park) and Barbican (Q-Park). At busy times of the year, you may wish to reserve a car park space in advance at the Q-Park options.
