Default Parking in Manchester

I'm not going to this one - but my parents are....

Anyone know how parking is around Old Trafford?? Or if it'd be a better idea to park in the city centre??

Thanx

Mike

Depends how much you're willing to pay.....

For Springsteen (the cricket ground, but it's all the same area) parking was pretty easy. Every garage, school e.t.c will have parking on there, I think it was about £4 for us last time.

Even going to games in the past, parking isn't a huge problem, you should get in somewhere.....

For Springsteen we got down about an hour before he came on, maybe even less actually. And parking within 2min walk of the ground was no problem at all!

There's also the Lowery Centre that has a car park.... It's actually part of the shopping centre before you reach the theatre, I don't know how full that will be, but I think that's about £5....

I'd say the best thing, not really knowing ,100% though, would be to go down to the ground and try and find parking around there, basically pull into the first place within walking distance of the ground.
