We receive regular requests from event organisers to hire district council owned car parks.

Due to high car park space demand across the city and district, please be aware we are highly unlikely to approve hire requests - availability is very much subject to current parking capacity, the amount of additional vistors an event will attract, and operational needs, as well as any historic arrangements we agree to honour.

If you are keen to find out if you can hire all or part of a car park for an event*, please contact us at parking@lichfielddc.gov.uk or speak to the events team as part of your expression of interest.  

If your hire request is permitted, you will be charged for any lost parking revenue as a result of the hire plus an administrative fee.

Discounts may be available on application for non-commercial/charity based events, subject to the approval of the responsible cabinet member.  

*This includes our parks car parks.
