Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## University of York Campus Parking in Heslington Parking on the University of York campus requires a valid parking permit purchased through the online parking permit system, or payment in a pay-and-display car park (york.ac.uk). Pay-and-display facilities are available in Campus Central and Campus North car parks for occasional drivers (york.ac.uk). Pay-and-display parking is free on weekends and Bank Holidays (york.ac.uk). York Concerts also states that parking is free after 6pm or at the weekend, while accessible spaces are available at the campus car parks (yorkconcerts.co.uk). Staff can buy an annual parking permit for £40, while additional 10-day permits for staff or visitor car parks cost £1 each (york.ac.uk). The campus option is therefore most practical for staff with a permit, occasional visitors using pay and display, and drivers attending an event with evening or weekend parking. ## Car Parks Beyond the Campus Near Heslington and Fishergate Drivers looking beyond the campus can use York city-centre facilities around the nearby Fishergate area, including council car parks and shopping-centre parking. These provide alternatives to Campus Central and Campus North when a campus permit is not available. Pay-and-display parking on the campus is free on weekends and Bank Holidays (york.ac.uk), while York Concerts states that campus parking is free after 6pm or at the weekend (yorkconcerts.co.uk). Those rules apply to the university facilities rather than nearby council or shopping-centre car parks, so the surrounding options should be treated as separate facilities.
