Information about Parking in Norwich
Choose your Norwich parking space from our range of options. For stress-free parking, just park with us.
From the Middle Ages until the Industrial Revolution, Norwich was the largest city in England after London. Nowadays, it is a popular tourist destination and one of the UK’s top ten shopping spots. Visitors are drawn by the annual Norfolk and Norwich Arts Festival and by the city’s wealth of historical architecture.
With so much to see and do, it’s no wonder that parking in Norwich is in high demand. There are several Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs) across the city, especially in areas with a high demand for on-street parking, including the city centre and areas near the University of East Anglia and the City College. In CPZs, there is no unrestricted parking: each space is designated for a particular purpose. The restrictions and charges differ across the city depending on the requirements of the locality, and spots can be hard to find. Although there is also the option of an off-street or multi-storey car park in Norwich, these tend to be quite pricey.

Parking in Central Norwich
Norwich city centre parking can be especially challenging because all on-street parking within the city centre is restricted and chargeable.
Charges for on-street parking in Norwich city centre are payable by cash at the Pay and Display machines. Prices are:
- Band A: £2.50 per hour
- Band B: £1.70 per hour
To know which band a space is in, and to find out which restrictions are in operation, be sure to check the Pay and Display machines and street signs.
Norwich Airport
Norwich Airport doesn’t have its own train station, so parking spaces nearby are in particularly high demand. Book in advance with YourParkingSpace to ensure your cheap, convenient parking space is waiting for you when you arrive at the airport.
Nearby Attractions
Norwich is a great city in which to spend a long weekend. It is the most complete medieval city in the UK, with old cobbled streets, and more medieval churches still standing than in any other city north of the Alps. The Adam and Eve pub is believed to be the oldest pub in the city, and it is well worth a visit.
If you’re planning a city break to Norwich, make sure you don’t leave the following popular tourist spots off your itinerary:
- Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery
- Norwich Cathedral
- Plantation Garden
- The Forum
However, Norwich is not just about the urban landscape. It is the only English city that is actually inside a National Park. The Broads National Park is a network of navigable rivers and lakes. It is a beloved boating holiday destination, and there are plenty of boat rental companies to choose from in Norwich and the surrounding area.
Search, book and park with YourParkingSpace to reserve fantastic Norwich parking within walking distance of all your favourite attractions.

Q&As
Is parking free on Saturdays in Norwich?
Parking is very tightly controlled in Norwich and most Controlled Parking Zones outside the city centre have Pay and Display meters operating until 6:30pm, even on Saturdays. City centre parking restrictions operate 24 hours a day.
Is parking free on Sundays in Norwich?
Some streets outside the city centre have unrestricted parking on Sundays. Finding free Norwich city centre parking on Sundays is more difficult, though, because inside the city centre, the Controlled Parking Zone operates every day of the week - even on Sundays.
Is there free parking after 6pm in Norwich?
If you don’t mind going a bit further outside the city centre, there is some on-street car parking in the Norwich suburbs on which restrictions are lifted at 6.30pm. The city centre Controlled Parking Zone, on the other hand, operates 24 hours a day.
Is it difficult to find a parking space in Norwich?
Finding on-street car parking in Norwich town centre can be a challenge. However, there are several off-street car parks around the city, including at the shopping centres and retail parks, and Norwich is also served by five Park and Ride schemes.
If none of these options quite fit the bill, YourParkingSpace has a great selection of cheap parking in Norwich available to book immediately.

Parking on Mountergate, NR1
Never realised you could pay to park on this car park. Always thought it was for the hotel only. Perfect for the station and a gd price too. I’ll use again instead of RCP that don’t actually give you the full 24 hrs you pay for.
