    Watford NYE Party - Whats the parking like????

    Hiya all,

    That time of year!
    Watford NYE Party - Whats the parking like?

    I've never been to Watford before, I think..... Whats the area like?

    Is Watford a bit of a dodgy area? Vandals and theft??? I just don't want it on NYE, with a long drive home to look fwd to!

    I remember a NYE at the old swindon venue. (Miles away, bust principal remains the same.) One of the london chaps, got his nice car broken into. A Horrible way to start the NY!

    Ealing is the safe "I know it" option, but I've never been to the watford venue before! 8)



    hope you can advise!


    Cheers
    Martin

    There is parking in the car park about 100 yards from the venue that costs £1.

    The car park is effectively within the area that is a large roundabout in the middle of the road. Therefore this reduces the possibility of vandalism.

    I would not normally associate vandalism with the area, although there is a
    pub between the car park and the venue.

    The car seems to be an overflow car park for taxis and was very busy too!

    Re: Watford NYE Party - Whats the parking like????

    Can someone give a fuller and more detailed description of the parking options?

    The reason for this is that on the last journey to Twisted, I sat naved ok - but then we were on the opposite side of the road (dual carriageway) - and ended up parking in a multi-storey 5-10 mins walk away - which was more awkward 'cos it entailed vaulting over the railings and crossing a quite busy dual carriageway

    I think one option mentioned as well was the pub car park? (I could be mistaken here - and not sure that would be right - unless you are going to the pub anyway).

    Behind the venue there is a large open air car park, which costs about £1 for the evening and there is an alley way that takes you from the car park to the venue without the need for acrobatics(though I’d possibly pay to watch that)
