Parking information

  • Basement car park

    The Darwin Convention Centre has 233 parking spaces available underneath the Centre, including seven disabled spaces. Basement parking is limited to cars only as the car park has a ceiling height of 2.3 metres. The cost of basement car parking is $5.00 per car, per day (or part thereof). The car park has a ticketless parking system which uses number plate recognition technology to manage parking. The benefit of this technology is that it allows users to skip the pay station queue and go straight to the exit boom gate with their credit card. Cash payments need to be made at the pay station where the vehicle’s registration will need to be entered. Additional parking is also available in the Waterfront Precinct within walking distance of the Centre.

  • Porte Cochere

    There are nine spaces in the Porte Cochere that are available for DCC guests, including seven for disabled guests. This space is a drop off zone for taxis and buses. Ministerial cars are permitted to park in the Porte Cochere if required. This area will be monitored and controlled by DCC Security.

  • Carpark across loading dock

    There is also a carpark across from the DCC loading dock which is paid by the hour through either the PayStay app or Ticket Display System. Details are located on the parking machines in the area.
