Car parking for this fixture is sold out.

The overall number of parking spaces available at the Etihad Stadium has been reduced by 30% for the 2021/22 season. This is due to the introduction of the NHS’ COVID-19 testing and vaccination centres and the initial ground works connected to the development of the CO-OP Live Arena. On the day sales will no longer be available and you can only pre-book your car parking in advance.

At the point of booking your parking space, you will be asked to insert your Vehicle Registration Number (VRN) which will be used with our Auto Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras upon arrival at the car park. It is essential that you write your VRN correctly on the booking form, to avoid any delays to entry. Please also bring your booking confirmation email with you.
