The Meridian Showground does not have its own car park, but there are public pay and display car parks within 10 minutes’ walking distance.

Our friends at Parkway Cinema in Cleethorpes have agreed to set aside spaces for 40 cars for DocksFest customers. These spaces will be allocated for a £5 charge on a first-come-first-served basis. This is a card only payment and Parkway Cinema staff will take payments with card readers. Please note the car park closes at 11pm so make sure you return to your car promptly as soon as the festival ends. Parkway Cinema is located on Kings Road, a short walk from Meridian Showground.
