Getting to the Venue
The venue is easily accessible by car and only a 10 minute drive from the Sydney CBD with stacks of parking options immediately alongside the event – see details below.
Please note that traffic can be heavy in the area for the show due to weekend congestion and light rail construction, so if possible we recommend you take public transport to the event – see full details on public transport options below.
Take advantage of the Route 1 shuttle bus service running from Eddy Avenue at Central Station in the CBD every 15 minutes from 9.30am until 3pm. To plan your trip on public transport just use the trip planner and a Transport NSW page will be available closer to the event date.
By Car
Before leaving home, be sure to check Live Traffic NSW for road status updates. The Eastern Distributor northbound off-ramp is closed across both show days. Cleveland Street is often affected by heavy traffic flow, so we advise entry via Anzac Parade, Lang Road and Moore Park Road. Light rail construction is occurring on Chalmers Street connecting with Elizabeth Street, so be sure to avoid that route.
Centennial Park Cark Park
The Centennial Park car park will be open for visitor parking on both Show days for just $25/day and is located directly opposite the venue and you can enter from Driver Avenue.
Wilson (Multi-Deck) Car Park
Car parking is available in the Wilson Multi-Deck car park located in the Entertainment Quarter. Just enter via Lang Road and the car park entry is actually located on Errol Flynn Boulevard. We recommend you arrive early to secure a parking space in the Multi-Deck car park as this does fill up fast and the rates are outlined below. Use this map to monitor road works, accidents, traffic flow and more.
