Matchday parking at the CBS Arena: a full guide for Coventry City home games

Parking on a matchday at the CBS Arena is easy once you know your options. This guide covers where to park, what to expect to pay, how early to arrive and how to get away without sitting in traffic.

Where can I park near the CBS Arena?

There are several car parks within a short walk of the ground on and around Jimmy Hill Way, Coventry CV6 6GE. Rather than list a single "best" one, the parking section shows each option with its matchday price and its walking distance from the turnstiles, so you can pick the trade-off that suits you. You can also see every car park plotted against the ground on the map.

How early should I arrive?

The closest car parks fill fast, especially for a big fixture. For a 15:00 kick-off, aim to be parked by 13:30 if you want to be within a few minutes' walk of the turnstiles. Arriving early also gives you time for a pub near the ground before you go in.

How much does matchday parking cost?

Prices vary by car park and by how close you are to the ground. Each entry on the parking section shows its price up front, so there are no surprises when you arrive. As a rule, the car parks a little further out cost less and clear faster afterwards.

How do I get away after the game?

The roads around Jimmy Hill Way get busy for about half an hour after the final whistle. A car park a short walk further from the ground often lets you get moving sooner than the ones right beside the turnstiles. If you are in no rush, staying for a drink at one of the pubs showing the game lets the worst of the traffic clear before you set off.

Plan the rest of your day

Once your parking is sorted, it is worth lining up the rest: check the matchday timetable so you know when gates open, and read the latest match preview for team news and where to watch. Get those three things done and the day runs itself.
