Parking & Transport Information
Welcome to The Eco Fairs! Here’s everything you need to know about parking and getting here, whether you’re a crafter setting up or a visitor coming to explore.
We will always encourage sustainable travel wherever possible. Our venue is well-connected by public transport, making it easy to leave the car behind and reduce your carbon footprint, but we understand that’s not always possible, which is why we’ve made a page to help with parking arrangements. Here’s everything you need to know for a smooth journey!
For Crafters: Parking & Unloading
Plan Ahead
We recommend using a parking app like Parkopedia, JustPark, or AppyParking. They’re great for checking local parking options to find permit, free, or paid spots nearby.
