## Cecil Street Parking for Manchester Academy Events

Car parking is available at Cecil Street car park behind Manchester Academy, according to the venue information page (manchesteracademy.net). The venue lists 0161 228 7878 for parking enquiries and says drivers can book through the app (manchesteracademy.net).

The University of Manchester operates five campus car parks with a mixture of permit and public parking (estates.manchester.ac.uk). University car parks open from 0600 to 2400, seven days a week (estates.manchester.ac.uk), while Blue Badge holders can park free of charge (estates.manchester.ac.uk). The Cecil Street information is the most directly relevant option for an event arrival because the car park is behind the venue (manchesteracademy.net).

## Oxford Road Restrictions Around the Venue

Manchester Academy is on Oxford Road in Chorlton-on-Medlock, near Rusholme, so the approach is through a busy university and city-centre corridor. The venue information page directs drivers to Cecil Street car park behind the building rather than describing general kerbside parking (manchesteracademy.net).

University of Manchester parking includes both permit and public spaces across five campus car parks (estates.manchester.ac.uk). Campus car parks operate from 0600 to 2400, seven days a week (estates.manchester.ac.uk), making the university's parking controls relevant to evening arrivals as well as daytime visits. Blue Badge holders can park free of charge in the university car parks (estates.manchester.ac.uk).

## Q-Park and University Alternatives Near Manchester Academy

[Q-Park](https://www.parksy.com/blog/q-park-united-kingdom-review-pros-cons-summary-services) provides a Manchester Academy parking page and invites drivers to secure a space online in advance (q-park.co.uk).

The University of Manchester has five car parks with a mixture of permit and public parking (estates.manchester.ac.uk). Those university car parks are open from 0600 to 2400, seven days a week (estates.manchester.ac.uk). Blue Badge holders can park free of charge in university car parks (estates.manchester.ac.uk). The University source identifies public parking but does not provide a tariff for these spaces, so the named Q-Park option is the alternative with an online booking route.

## Parksy Spaces Within 244 Yards of the Venue

Parksy lists a driveway space at The Grafton Hotel, 197 yd away, priced at £4.30 a day. At the listed distance, the walk after a show is short enough to avoid a long return through the Oxford Road crowds.

Four further Parksy spaces are listed 244 yd away: secure hourly parking at Hilton Park Lane for £4.50 an hour, an hourly space at Haydock Hotel Car Park with 24/7 access for £2.50 an hour, daily parking at Care Park Marble Arch for £11 a day, and hourly parking at ParkBee - Liverpool Central Village for £3.52 an hour. A fifth 244 yd option is daily parking at Belmont Hotel for £11 a day. These are all close walking alternatives for drivers who prefer to leave the venue car park area promptly after an event.

## Walking From Manchester Mayfield and Nearby Rail Stations

Manchester Mayfield railway station is the nearest station, 0.9 mi from the venue, with an 18 min walk. The route brings rail users towards Oxford Road in Chorlton-on-Medlock, near Rusholme, without needing to find event parking.

Ardwick railway station and Manchester Piccadilly station are both listed as approximately 19 min walks away. The three stations give visitors alternatives to driving for evening events, particularly when a nearby car park is busy. The address is Oxford Road, Chorlton-on-Medlock, Manchester, M13 9PR.
