We are responsible for 30 car parks in Belfast. Of these car parks, 15 are free to use and 15 are charged.
On 2 April 2024, we changed to RingGo for cashless parking.
When using our charged car parks, you should download the RingGo app or register online at the RingGo website (link opens in new window). This allows payment for parking with a credit or debit card, rather than cash. For cashless car park queries, call RingGo on 0203 046 0010.
You can also opt out of SMS notifications on the RingGo app so as not to incur charges. Find out how to opt out (link opens in new window). Contactless payments are available in these car parks:
All charged car parks (except Corporation Square, Corporation Street and Smithfield) are open and free to use outside of charged hours.
You can still pay with cash at all the machines in our charged car parks.
Marston Holdings Ltd is responsible for enforcement in our car parks. You will notice:
From 1 December 2024, the traffic attendants working in our car parks wear cameras on their uniforms. The cameras can record video and sound. A traffic attendant will only record a situation if they feel a recording will help their safety. Before a traffic attendant begins recording, they will announce this. They need to press a button to start and stop recording.
Traffic attendants are not able to watch or edit a recording. The recordings are kept for 45 days unless there is a lawful need to store for longer.
To read the full privacy notice, go to Marston Holdings Ltd (link opens in new window).
You can find information about on-street car parking on nidirect (link opens in new window).
All of our car parks are free to use on these dates (or the allocated bank holiday):

All charged car parks (except Smithfield) are open and free to use outside of charged hours.
If you want to use cash payments, you will need to input your vehicle registration number in the machine. The machine will issue you a ticket with your vehicle registration number which will still need to be displayed.
RingGo app users (link opens in new window) will experience no difference as it is a separate method of payment.
You can watch this video to find out how the Pay-by-Plate car parks work (link opens in new window).
The Blue Badge scheme helps you park closer to your destination if you have mobility problems.
An accessible parking bay is a reserved space on the public road for use by Blue Badge holders only. In some circumstances you can apply for a bay near your home or work.
