Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Event-Day Parking at Bristol Old Vic The venue advises that metered parking is available on Welsh Back and Queen Square (bristololdvic.org.uk). These are the named on-street options in the venue’s getting-here guidance, rather than a dedicated theatre car park, so they suit drivers who want to park close to King Street before a performance. There are three disabled parking bays on Queen Charlotte Street, and Blue Badge holders park for free (bristololdvic.org.uk). The venue asks visitors to book taxis for both drop-off and pick-up at Bristol Old Vic (bristololdvic.org.uk), which is useful when a show ends and pedestrian or traffic movements make a kerbside stop difficult. ## Parksy Spaces Close to the Venue Parksy lists a Queen Charlotte Street space 145 yd away at £9.88 an hour, making it the closest priced listing for a short evening visit. A space at The Mercure Brigstow Bristol Hotel is 190 yd away and costs £6 a day. Both locations leave a short walk back to the venue after a performance. For longer stays, a secure covered space in BS1 6HJ is 270 yd away at £100 a month. Three further listings are 281 yd away: a space near Optimax Clinic in Leeds at £3.30 an hour, a car park on Thomas Lane at £12 a day, and a space in BS1 6JT at £12 a day. The 281 yd walk is still practical after an evening show, although the Leeds description should be checked carefully against the Bristol destination before booking. Show map of Bristol ## Car Parks and Alternatives Near King Street Metered parking on Welsh Back and Queen Square is identified by the venue as a nearby alternative to driving directly to King Street (bristololdvic.org.uk). The venue’s access information also identifies Queen Charlotte Street as the location of three disabled parking bays, with [free parking](https://www.parksy.com/parking-near-me) for Blue Badge holders (bristololdvic.org.uk). Several reserveable car parks near the venue are listed by Bristol-theatre.co.uk, giving drivers alternatives to metered bays when a guaranteed space is more important than parking directly on the street. A local theatre parking guide says the maximum stay is 2 hours during the day, from 8am to 6pm, and refers to evening rates (theatreinbristol.co.uk). The guide places the venue near the harbourside, with several parking options around King Street (theatreinbristol.co.uk). ## Street Restrictions Around Bristol Old Vic King Street is the venue address, while the venue’s own arrival guidance directs drivers towards metered parking on Welsh Back and Queen Square (bristololdvic.org.uk). The named disabled bays are on Queen Charlotte Street rather than at the theatre entrance (bristololdvic.org.uk), so accessible arrivals should use that street when the bays are suitable. Evening parking is covered by evening rates in the same guide (theatreinbristol.co.uk). Blue Badge holders can park for free in the venue’s disabled parking provision (bristololdvic.org.uk), while taxis should be arranged for drop-off and pick-up at the venue (bristololdvic.org.uk). ## Rail and Walking Access to the Venue Bristol Temple Meads railway station is 0.6 mi from Bristol Old Vic, with a 13-minute walk to the theatre. That makes the station a practical alternative when a performance falls during a busy period or when the nearby streets are less convenient for a car. Bristol St Philip’s railway station is around a 14-minute walk away, while Bedminster railway station is around a 16-minute walk away. The venue is on King Street in Bristol city centre, so each station provides a walk-in option without needing a separate taxi journey.
