Parking:
As you have probably experienced, crowds at events at Blacktown Olympic Park continue to grow as the GIANTS build momentum towards 2012. As a result, the AFL/Cricket car park quickly fills up as spots are very limited. This has the potential to delay you if you try to gain a spot in this area.
To help you manage your car parking, we recommend that you park in the areas marked as P2, P3 & P4 on the map below. This should ensure you arrive on time, hassle free ready to enjoy a great event.
These areas are accessed by entering at the main entry to Blacktown Olympic Park (at the traffic lights) off Eastern Road, Rooty Hill. Parking in this area will only add 5-10 minutes on your walk to the ground.
If you have a disability parking permit, parking will still be available in the AFL/Cricket (P1) car park.
