Parking at Etihad - advice please

[ScottH]

At which end of Etihad is Aisle 1/48, Cheer Squad Email doesn't make sense.

Bourke St end. Where the Cheer squad is for most games there.

I park here (modern building multilevel), 5 minute walk. $6 till 11pm or midnight (can't quite remember). When you exit; go left down Gresham street then left and your away!

There are plenty of parking places around Docklands. The place is a wasteland filled with emptiness.
So any empty space is a carpark.

The multi story (orange place) is $5 for 24 hours. Most others vary from $6-$8. There are some that are more.
Most of Docklands is only a 10-15 mins walk to the Stadium.

The one Frog is thinking of is in the Wiki page I linked to.

There is also crown. They charge about $6 for 6 hours, it is a fair hike though. And can get crowded early evening. Plenty of parking just crowded to get in, so leave plenty of time, Just in case.

That's the one. Crombie lane.
Only negative with that one is it closes quickly after the game finishes(1/2 hr or an hr). Plenty of people park there though.
You also have to walk though the Sat night Mens club district, can be intimidating for people with children, as I found out one night.

Yeah it's through a part of the strip clubs area, but before 11pm there aren't many people around. Haven't got kids yet, but people walk in groups and there's families all together. And for 6 bucks that close, it's a bargain.

You Melbournites don't know how good you've got it. $25 to park underneath the ground and get a lift to your seat is gold.

We pay $20 to park 300m from the gate. It's either a dustbowl in the dry, a bog in the wet and takes forever to get out of. (It's actually way better to get out of than it once was, but let's not spoil a good rant).....

[magic.merkin]

We just don't get to see them as much. So it evens out.

$26 is expensive parking? As BBB says, us Sydneysiders would snap that up in a hurry!!!

Good luck to all Swannies heading to the game, no matter how you get there

Parking at Etihad is now $31 plus booking fee thought Ticketmaster

Good News, we get to be near the Locker Room!

My advice is park in the streets around the remand centre which is on latrobe street just off king steet and from there it is about a 10-15minute walk to the stadium and it is FREE parking. Otherwise you can park under the stadium for some ridiculous price of $25 I think.

$25 is NOT ridiculous to a Sydneysider unfortunately.

There is a decent car park up towards Coles on Spencer Street. I know several CS members always park there when we are at Etihad.

Honestly, if you are coming straight from the airport, why not forgo the car & just hop on the Skybus. It is $16 & you get dropped off right at the station in 20 minutes.
