The closest car park building is on Lombard Street (festival.nz). James Smith Car Park is opposite the venue and has more than 700 car parks available (primeparking.co.nz). The venue provides a drop-off facility, which can be useful for passengers who cannot walk from a nearby building (wellingtonnz.com). ## Street Parking and Event Enforcement Near MFC Street parking is available near the venue, alongside nearby parking buildings (wellingtonnz.com). The central location means event arrivals share kerb space with regular Wellington traffic and other city visitors. For a show at 111 Wakefield Street, drivers should allow time to find a legal space before the performance begins. A drop-off at the venue can separate passenger arrival from the search for a longer-stay space (wellingtonnz.com).
