PARKING There are a number of Stevenage Borough Council car parks located around the vicinity of the Stevenage Arts & Leisure Centre. Patrons using these car parks for an evening performance are advised to pre-pay for their tokens at the pay station if arriving after 6.00pm, as a fixed rate then applies. This will help to reduce the volume of traffic queuing at the end of the evening.

There are limited parking spaces available for Blue Badge Holders, these are located on the service road at the front of the theatre, these spaces are subject to the usual restrictions, are policed by traffic wardens and cannot be pre-booked.

Please note that patrons are unable to park in the Stevenage Leisure Park. This is operated by a private company and your vehicle may be clamped.
