There are more than 4,700 off street car parks and 5,400 on street car parks in Central Geelong. Both short and long term options are available.
Parking fees and time limits are in place to ensure turnover of car spaces during busy periods so more people can access shops and businesses each day.
In general terms parking time limits are shorter within the inner core of the city whilst longer time limits are more readily available as you move further out.

Public holiday parking
Please note that our ticket machines are programmed for free parking on public holidays. Some of Geelong's major car parks shown on the parking options map are privately provided and may not provide free parking on public holidays.
Always check your nearest ticket machine before leaving your vehicle to avoid attracting a penalty notice.
In general Victorian Public Holidays apply.
Melbourne Cup is not a local public holiday therefore parking limits and fees apply.
Our Geelong Cup Day is held each year in mid to late October and is a free parking day.
