Car Parking at the NEC - Where and How?

[wilbo83]

Finally got my tickets to the show, but now I am trying to work out how to get there and where to park. The NEC site isnt too helpful as it says there are numerous car parks but doesnt tell you which one is best for this show. Anyone know the answer?

My experience is you will get directed and either walk or get a bus, after paying a tenner to park. Don't fret just turn up.

easy mate just follow the directions once you are there

£7 to park all day

Ok, cool, wasnt sure if they did something similar to the O2 with prepaid parking.
