Parking in the city

Bath is a popular tourist destination and hosts a number of events throughout the year. Before you decide to park in the city, check the Visit Bath website for any events during the Open Day you've chosen.

Please be aware that Robbie Williams is performing concerts in the Royal Crescent on both Friday 13 and Saturday 14 June, so Bath's car parks are likely to be busier than usual.
