Pavilions Swords Car Park on the Rathbeale Road Side
The main centre car park is operated by Pavilions Swords and provides over 2,000 spaces, making it the largest named parking option serving the shopping centre (pavilions.ie). The car park gives the first two hours free, followed by €1 for 2 to 3 hours, €2.50 for 3 to 4 hours, €6 for 4 to 5 hours and €6 for 5 to 6 hours (pavilions.ie).
The car park is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so early shopping, late collections and evening visits are covered (pavilions.ie). The centre’s parking information places car park services on Level 0 of the multi-storey car park (pavilions.ie).
Weekend Demand Around Pavilions Swords
The combination of more than 2,000 spaces and a two-hour free period makes the centre car park suitable for ordinary shopping visits, but the free allowance is easiest to use when the visit stays within two hours (pavilions.ie).
The car park operates continuously throughout the week, including weekends, while the centre’s published opening-hours page lists car park access separately from shopping hours (pavilions.ie). Drivers staying beyond the free period should allow for the next tariff band rather than treating the initial two hours as an all-day allowance.
