Parking your car
How to find The Bridgewater Hall
The Bridgewater Hall is located on Lower Mosley
Street in the heart of Manchester city centre. It is situated close
to St Peter's Square Metrolink station, mainline railway stations
and several car parks.
Car Park Access
Convenient car parking can be found in the NCP
Manchester Central car park below G-Mex, which is linked directly
to The Bridgewater Hall by an underpass beneath Lower Mosley Street.
This well-lit underground walkway gives level access from the car-park
to a lift which, in turn, gives access to Barbirolli Square just
outside the Hall's main entrance.
Car park vouchers for evening events are available to all Bridgewater
Hall patrons for the NCP Manchester Central car park beneath GMEX,
Great Northern and Oxford Street car parks, open 24 hours a day,
7 days a week. You can purchase your car park voucher at a cost
of £5.50 per car - a saving on the standard evening
rate. Vouchers are valid from 5pm and can be bought when you purchase
your concert tickets. Vouchers are also available for selected weekend
daytime events - please ask at the Box Office when booking.
G-Mex and NCP have invested over a £1/4
million in new, automated parking and security facilities for Manchester
Central. The benefits to Bridgewater Hall patrons include faster
entry to and exit from the car parks, combined with improved lighting
and increased security via additional CCTV cameras.
Patrons are requested to note the following changes in the system
for pre-paid car parking vouchers:
As you enter the car park, you will be offered a car park ticket.
Take this ticket and your pre-paid NCP car park voucher from The
Bridgewater Hall to the Cloakroom in the Hall foyer for validation.
Tickets can be validated both before and after the concert. On leaving
the car park, drive to the exit barrier and insert your validated
ticket. The barrier will lift for you to exit.
Disabled Parking
There is a specially designated tarmacked area for wheelchair-using
patrons adjacent to the walkway entrance (see map). There are a
limited number of complimentary parking spaces in this area which
are allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. Priority is given
to wheelchair users; spaces are free of charge but a ticket must
be booked from the Box Office with your concert tickets. Blue badge
holders are also entitled to park free in this area; again with
a relevant ticket that must be obtained in advance (see above).
Please note that the remainder of this parking area, other than
the aforementioned wheelchair spaces, is cobbled.
