## Event-Day Parking Near Sherman Theatre

For an evening at Sherman, NCP Dumfries Place is the main named car-park option in the venue’s visitor information. The theatre site also identifies a [JustPark](https://www.parksy.com/blog/justpark-united-kingdom-review-pros-cons-summary-services) car park behind Senghennydd Road and parking on Museum Place as nearby alternatives (shermantheatre.co.uk). [NCP](https://www.parksy.com/blog/national-car-parks-ncp-united-kingdom-parking-review) Dumfries Place is five minutes from the venue on foot, according to Theatre Tokens, making it practical when a performance finishes after dark (theatretokens.com).

BBC listings give NCP Dumfries Place a rate of £1.95 per hour (bbc.co.uk). The venue’s access information identifies parking spaces for blue badge holders in front of the building, with badge holders able to park free of charge and without a time limit (shermantheatre.co.uk). For a performance, the Dumfries Place route is the clearest choice for drivers who want a named facility rather than searching around Civic Centre streets.

## Named Car Parks Around Civic Centre

NCP Dumfries Place is the most prominent named alternative around the venue, with parking currently available for £1.95 per hour (bbc.co.uk). The theatre’s visitor page also names a JustPark car park behind Senghennydd Road and parking on Museum Place (shermantheatre.co.uk). These locations place drivers close to the Civic Centre and near the approach roads used for the theatre.

This can suit a shorter visit when a marked space is available, while NCP Dumfries Place gives an identified off-street destination for show nights. The visitor information also places blue badge spaces in front of the building, and the access page says badge holders may park free of charge and without a time limit (shermantheatre.co.uk).

## Parksy Spaces Within Walking Distance

Parksy lists a driveway space on Richmond Road in CF24, 0.2 miles away, at £6.50 an hour. A space near Hilton Cardiff in CF10 3ND is 0.3 miles away and costs £4.80 a day. For a show, both locations leave a walk after parking, with the Richmond Road option the closer of the two by the listed distance.

Three spaces are listed 0.4 miles away: a secure 24/7 garage in central Cardiff at £25 a day, a secure 24/7 Cardiff space near the city centre at £4.50 an hour, and a space at Leonardo Hotel Cardiff in CF10 at £8.58 an hour. A further Crwys Road space in Cardiff CF24 is also 0.4 miles away at £4.50 an hour. The 0.4-mile choices involve the longest listed walk back after the performance.

## Street Parking and Access Around the Venue

The venue address is 45 Park Place, Civic Centre, Cardiff, CF10 3AT, near Cathays. Museum Place is named as a nearby parking location in the theatre’s visitor information (shermantheatre.co.uk).

Blue badge spaces are located in front of the building. Badge holders may park free of charge and without a time limit, according to the theatre’s access information (shermantheatre.co.uk). Drivers using ordinary street parking should distinguish Cathays Park and Museum Place from the dedicated blue badge provision, particularly when arriving for a busy evening performance.

## Rail and Walking Routes to Sherman

Cardiff Queen Street railway station is the nearest station, 0.5 miles from Sherman and a 10-minute walk. The route brings pedestrians into the Civic Centre near the venue, avoiding the need to find a space close to 45 Park Place.

Cardiff Central railway station is also within walking range, at approximately a 17-minute walk. Queen Street is the shorter station approach, while Central provides another rail arrival point for visitors travelling into Cardiff. Both options avoid the final search for event parking around the theatre and place the last part of the journey on foot.
