Parking near Edgbaston on matchdays is restricted — streets immediately surrounding the ground operate as a controlled parking zone on major match days, with permit holders only on the closest roads. Pre-booking a private driveway or off-street space through JustPark in the surrounding streets is the most straightforward option for drivers:
Reserve your space before you set off — on busy Test days the residential streets around Edgbaston, Balsall Heath, Moseley, and Selly Oak fill up quickly, and a pre-booked space removes all uncertainty.
Spaces from £8.60 a day — private driveways and car parks available across the streets surrounding the ground, with options to suit every budget across all five days.
Within easy walking distance of the ground — spaces are available as close as a 2-minute walk from the main entrance, so you can be in your seat well before the first ball.
Confirmed the moment you book — no circling for a spot when Edgbaston Road is closed and the surrounding streets are busy with 25,000 fans.
Extend on the go — if play runs late or you want to stay for post-match drinks, extend your booking directly through the JustPark app.
