Free resident parking – Sunday Socials August 2025

As part of the Old Town Gasworks Sunday Socials programme, Swindon Borough Council has kindly agreed to offer free parking for Devizes Road (and affiliate streets inside the closure) residents on each of the three event days:

  • Sunday 3rd August

  • Sunday 17th August

  • Sunday 31st August

We know road closures on Devizes Road and Wood Street may cause some temporary inconvenience, so this is one way we’re helping make life a little easier for those living nearby.

Where can I park?

You’ll be able to park for free in any SBC-run car park across Swindon on these dates, including:

  • Britannia Place (off Newport Street)

  • Prospect Place

  • The lanks

How do I get free parking?

All you need to do is complete the short form below, letting us know:

  • Your name

  • Your vehicle registration

  • Your street address (on Devizes road or affiliate street)

We’ll then register your number plate with Swindon Borough Council so you’re exempt from charges on the event days between 8am and 8pm.

Please note: this only applies to SBC-run car parks, not private or commercial ones.

Thank you for your patience and support while these events go ahead — we’d love to see you at one of the Sunday Socials!
