Does anyone know what the parking situation is this season? Will Car Park C still be available for instance...?

I guess all of this stuff will be sorted when they know what sort of numbers are allowed back in. I mean they probably already know but won't release the details until they get the details from the government. I'd guess it will be unless the drone thing is being built there.

NEWS: Seasonal car parking available to purchase at Midday today

Seasonal car parking is available to purchase for Coventry City's league games at the Coventry Building Society next season from Midday.
www.ccfc.co.uk

Gone for A, as it's nearest to the main entrance and our seats, though B is usually easier to get away from.

I've booked B as have a disabled family member. When you register be aware that it sent the verification email which was in my Spam folder (not a euphemism) for over an hour before I realised.

Just booked ours in Car Park A (same as previous years). Was a bit worried about what was happening with the parking, can't walk down anymore, so relieved we have got that sorted.

I experienced that as well, a right pain until I realised. Kept trying to make the payment, nowhere had it said about verifying my email, but got there eventually.

Car Park C is available- but apparently only 200 places overall for A, B and C available initially which feels well down on the normal allocations so I wouldn't hang about if you want a space.

Has someone missed a zero off, there's about 2,000 spaces isn't there? Would be odd to only allow 10% of capacity to be sold.

Dont click on "Season Tickets" as that takes you to an enquiry form (???) If you click on Find an Event you can book online from there. They are all £200 - all league games but no cup etc as usual

If anybody could give a brief pro's/cons for these (A/B/C) that would be great!
My Dad is newly struggling with mobility issues - we may look at on-site parking but don't want to have to miss the end of the game or get stuck for ages trying to get out...
Does anybody have any useful info that they could share with regards to this?

Thanks as always!

c is the longest walk
a b both closer to stadium
getting away after game can be slow in all 3
i would think A might be your best bet

Go A or B if he's got mobility issues. Just pick the one nearest to where you go into the ground. Although to be honest I've never known them to make you go in the car park you've paid for, its always been go wherever you can find a space.

If I was in your shoes I would consider just going to the casino for half an hour after the match to let the traffic die down, so you don't have to leave early or sit in traffic. You don't need to gamble, just find a comfy chair and check out all the other football scores over a beer or a coffee. I think car park A is probably the best for that option.

I have mobility issues so parking close is important. I use car park A, we leave promptly (never before the end!!!), straight back to the car and it takes 5 mins to get to the motorway.

If you dawdle after the match finishes you can get stuck and it takes ages because it’s just a free for all.

Any advice on normal/private parking? We used to park the other side of the canal and cross the bridge, we then pared at the Cherry tree. Is there any parking a bit nearer, like @shepardo01 my old man is getting older and want to save his energy for the match rather than a hike to the ground. People have mentioned CTK parking, is that the one up near the boozer in holbrooks? How far walk is it? Cheers in advance. 30kish for the first game back is gonna be bedlam

There's some places on that little industrial estate right next to the Ricoh but imagine they fill up pretty quickly.

Park at retail park nearest to the ground / underpass. Then buy a £50 Tesco/Amazon etc gift card which you can spend on shopping at your leisure. You can then park as long as you like

Shame that the scrappers parking ended - was a great little place to park, and a fair price.

Isn't it 8.70 per game? Always been a tenner on the day. Much admit, not much of a discount, but it saves the hassle on the day - just drive in.

I assume the club still see none of it?

Thanks for the great info folks. Certainly gives food for thought.
Used to park on a friends drive about 10mins walk away, but that walk, particularly the uphill section through the industrial estate will be just too much for dad now.
Enough info here to judge whether parking on site is an option or whether I can drop dad off on the casino side and park up in the usual spot and meet him when I've parked. ( @Greggs something you might also consider??)

Thanks again folks. Much appreciated.

Only once, and my experience was the same as this review (not mine)

Coventry Welsh Rugby Club Parking for Events - Coventry Building Society Arena, Coventry Traveller Reviews - Tripadvisor

Coventry Building Society Arena: Coventry Welsh Rugby Club Parking for Events - See 556 traveller reviews, 164 candid photos, and great deals for Coventry, UK, at Tripadvisor.
www.tripadvisor.co.uk

Think it was six quid.

Hopefully, any regulars here will be able to confirm whether these are one-off experiences.
