Parking at Villa Park - Recommendations?

[Cloudy147]

Hi all,

We are going to see a concert in a couple of months time and it’s at Villa Park. I’ve never been so started looking at parking options. The Villa Park website gives a strong undertone that it’ll be total misery.

I’m considering park-on-my-drive type solution, but I’m not sure which roads to avoid as I’d like to dodge the congestion if, for example, an extra ten minute walk would mean a speedy departure? It’ll be late on by the time the concert finishes - I expect maybe 11pm - so the only real traffic will be coming out of the stadium at the same time.

I’d be heading north via M6.

Any top tips?

Thanks!

Have a look at some train stations on the New Street - Lichfield line then get the train to/from Witton

Sutton Coldfield has a large car park next to it
