Stadium Event Parking
Queensland Country Bank Stadium events bring great economic benefits to our city centre and local businesses. Due to their popularity, some event traffic and parking restrictions apply to help keep Townsville City easily accessible to the people who live and work in the city.
On Stadium Event and Game Days
City Parking and Closures
Parking is free in the 2P areas from 2pm in Townsville City (outside of the Stadium Restricted Parking Area)
Notes about closures:
- Dean Street Carpark is closed from 2pm. Alternative parking is available in Townsville City.
- Lowths Bridge on Stanley Street is closed before and during the game due to pedestrian traffic.
Restricted Parking
Notes about restricted parking:
- Parking in the Stadium Event Parking Area is regulated for one hour before, until one hour after, the advertised start time of an event at the stadium
- If the event is an NRL game, then the parking regulations will apply from one hour before the start time of the main game.
- Fines are issued to owners of vehicles that are parked for longer than the permitted time without a registered permit.
These restrictions apply to on-street parking only, including driveways from the kerb to your property boundary. It does not apply to vehicles parked within your property.
All other parking restrictions – such as 'no standing' zones, taxi zones, bus zones, and disability parking permit zones – continue to apply.
