Kick-Off Sorted: Your Guide to Craven Cottage Parking
Everything Fulham fans need to know about parking near Craven Cottage — restrictions, routes, and how to book ahead so you're not still circling side streets at kick-off.
Craven Cottage Parking: Matchday Parking Guide for Fulham FC
Craven Cottage doesn't have its own car park, and the residential streets around it switch to permit-only zones on matchdays — so turning up and hoping for a space simply isn't an option. With Fulham back in Premier League action through the 2026/27 season, the smart move is to book Fulham FC Matchday Parking near the ground before you set off, rather than risk a Penalty Charge Notice hunting for one on the day.
Book Craven Cottage Parking with JustPark
Reserve your Craven Cottage parking ahead of your next Fulham fixture and you'll have a confirmed space waiting before you even leave home. Booking with JustPark means:
A convenient space before you set off — no driving in circles around Stevenage Road or Fulham Palace Road looking for somewhere legal to park.
A choice of price points — from driveways a short walk from the ground to spaces further out if you'd rather pay less and stretch your legs.
The option to extend on the day — if the game goes to added time or you fancy a pint after the final whistle, extend your session in the app.
Savings on last-minute, on-the-day rates — booking in advance tends to secure better prices than turning up and hoping.
Access to quieter residential streets — away from the crush around the away end and the main routes out after the whistle.
Getting to Craven Cottage on Matchday
Craven Cottage sits on Stevenage Road, SW6 6HH, next to Bishop's Park on the banks of the Thames. There's no general parking at the ground itself, so most fans arrive on foot from one of the nearby stations:
Putney Bridge (District line) — the closest Underground station, roughly a 15–20 minute walk through Bishop's Park along the river.
Hammersmith (Piccadilly, District, Hammersmith & City and Circle lines) — further out, so allow extra time on top of the walk.
Fulham Broadway (District line) — a similar distance out, useful if you're coming from further east.
Bus routes 74, 220, 424 and 430 run to Fulham Palace Road, leaving a short walk from there to the ground.
Driving in — book a space near Fulham Broadway or another confirmed driveway before you leave, since there's nowhere to park at the stadium and matchday restrictions apply the moment you get close. If you're driving into Fulham from outside London, note that Ultra Low Emission Zone charges (£12.50, 24/7 for non-compliant vehicles) apply across the whole of Greater London, including SW6 — the central Congestion Charge zone doesn't reach this far west, so that charge doesn't apply here.
Matchday Parking Restrictions Around Craven Cottage
Hammersmith & Fulham Council enforces a Traffic Management Order around the ground on matchdays, and it catches out a lot of fans who assume they can just find a spot nearby:
Zones T, X and Y are controlled on matchdays — Zone T runs from 9am to 10pm, Zones X and Y from 9am to 9.30pm, including Sundays and bank holidays.
Pay-and-display bays are limited to a maximum stay — one hour in Zones X and Y, two hours in Zone T — so you can't leave a car parked for the whole match even if you find a paying bay.
Enforcement is active on matchdays, with fines issued to vehicles that overstay or park without the right permit.
Booking a JustPark space in advance sidesteps all of this — you know exactly where you're parking and that it's legal for the duration of the match.
Accessible Parking Near Craven Cottage
Fulham FC provides a small number of complimentary accessible parking spaces at a car park on Kingwood Road, with a short accessible shuttle service running fans to and from the ground.
Spaces are limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis — supporters need to contact the club's Disability Liaison Officer in advance of the fixture to request one. If you'd rather arrange your own accessible space nearby, JustPark lets you filter listings for Blue Badge-friendly spaces when you search near the ground.
