Any locals know of the best (cheapest) place to park?

Got to go tomorrow, went a couple of days ago and parked on the actual Bull Ring car park for less than 2 hours and it cost me a fiver.

the bullring is a nightmare for parking tbh mate. best place I can think of is the multi storey near the argos by oasis. I will find road names for you now.

I always park around the brindley place area now, Scotland Street is one of the roads, find one of the streets with a meter on, cheaper than the car parks

Blimey that's gone up since I last went

Best off trying the other ones then fella, or as simon said find a side street with a parking meter. be careful though as the traffic wardens are shit hot.

I went fairly recently. We parked for free in the Jewellery Quarter which was about 10 mins walk away.

I'm pretty sure it must have been a Saturday as well as we went to the Birmingham v Bolton FA Cup game.

We parked just round the corner from a big Sikh/Hindu temple which is painted sky blue I think.

Go to Allison Street (either on that street somewhere or there is a car park which is actually known as Moor Street car park and it's underground). Only a few minutes walk away from the Bullring.

Normally park there when in town.
