How to save money on parking at Wembley Stadium
Posted by admin | Under Football Business, Uncategorized Friday Apr 30, 2010
A day out at a football match at Wembley Stadium costs an arm and a leg. With the ever increasing costs of tickets, food, drink, replica kit and travel involved with attending a match, there is at least one-way in which you might be able to save some cash. With only a few weeks to go until the FA Cup Final at Wembley, Parkatmyhouse.co.uk, is an online marketplace that connects property owners with a spare parking space to drivers in need of a convenient and affordable place to park, has reported a surge in bookings from fans keen to save time and money.
Controlled parking schemes that operate in local areas around Wembley and other London stadiums mean parking, where available, is expensive. Around Wembley Stadium, motorists who are unable to take public transport can expect to pay parking fees of up to £27.50 for a car and £63.50 for a coach/mini-bus. Football supporters have been quick to discover that renting privately through Parkatmyhouse.co.uk costs as little as £7.50 to attend the match.
Brian Stewart, a 43 year old market analyst, has been renting his driveway in Wembley for two years. “Most of my customers are families with young children. Many drive long distances so they are grateful for my offer of a cup of tea and use of my loo on arrival. And if they parked at the stadium they can only leave their car there for the duration of the match. With my driveway there is no time limit so they can enjoy a full family day out.”
Mike Barrett, a security consultant living in Southampton parked on Brian’s drive last year and has just rebooked to attend the FA Cup Carlsberg Vase Final between Whitley Bay and Wroxham in May. “It’s more economical to park on someone’s drive near Wembley”, he says. “And given security is my game I am very conscious that his drive is a safe place to leave my car. It’s in a safe area, it’s close to the grounds, and I know that Brian will take care of it.”
