About Parking at M&S Bank Arena

M&S Bank Arena sits right on Liverpool's waterfront at Kings Dock, and while it's a stunning location for a night out, getting parked nearby on event nights is another story. The arena holds up to 11,000 people, and when a big concert or show is on, the surrounding streets fill up fast. Strand Street becomes a crawl, the Wapping area gridlocks, and if you haven't planned ahead, you'll spend half the evening looking for somewhere to leave the car.

Liverpool ONE car park is the go-to for many people heading to the waterfront, but it fills up quickly on event nights and the queues to get in (and out) can be painful. The surface car parks around Kings Dock are limited, and Albert Dock's own parking is small and usually full by early evening. The city centre multi-storeys are an option, but that means a longer walk and navigating the post-event traffic back through town.

That's where we come in. We work with professional parking operators and landowners around the Kings Dock, Baltic Triangle, and Wapping areas who have private off-street spaces available on event nights. You book in advance, get a confirmed address, and drive straight there. No circling the waterfront, no queuing for a multi-storey, and a short walk along the dock to the arena doors.

It's the smart way to park for any event at M&S Bank Arena — whether it's a sold-out concert, a comedy night, or a family show. Book ahead, park up, and enjoy your evening.

Event Day Tips for M&S Bank Arena

Make your evening smooth from start to finish.

Arrive Early

Waterfront traffic builds quickly on event nights, and The Strand gets congested well before doors open. Arriving at least 60 minutes early means you park without stress and have time to soak up the atmosphere along the dock.

Best Approach

Coming from the M62, use the A5047 or approach via Parliament Street to reach Kings Dock from the south side. Avoid The Strand close to event time — it's the main waterfront route and backs up quickly when 11,000 people are heading the same way.

Explore the Waterfront

If you're early, make the most of it. Albert Dock and Royal Albert Dock are right next door and packed with great restaurants and bars. Grab a bite, have a drink, and enjoy one of the best waterfront settings in the country before the show.

Post-Event: Take Your Time

The Strand and Wapping are gridlocked for a good 20 minutes after any big event lets out. Do yourself a favour — head to one of the waterfront bars, let the traffic clear, and drive home in peace. There's no shortage of great spots to wait it out.
