Variation of Off Street Parking Charges for the English Riviera Air Show 2026
Decision Maker: Director of Finance
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Decision:
Implement the following event date parking tariffs for pre-booked parking only for the period Friday 29th May 2026 to Sunday 31st May 2026 (dates inclusive).
Premium Parking – Colin Road, Hyde Road, Roundham and Victoria car parks
Length of stay: Charge:
One day £35.00
Zone 1 Parking – Quay West car park
Length of stay: Charge:
One day £25.00
Commercial Vehicle Event Tariff – Clennon Valley car park
Length of stay: Charge:
One day £100.00
Reasons for the decision:
In order to support the demand for parking, Torbay Council will adopt the same pre-book method used in previous years running of this event for six car parks across Paignton. The increase in charges is required due to additional operational costs attributed to the parking places during the course of the event.
Alternative options considered:
Not to operate the pre-book parking method, which would lead to event attendees not knowing if there would be capacity for them to park at each of the locations prior to visiting each car park.
Implementation:
Pre-booked parking is available via the Air Show website, access to each car park across the three event dates will only be permitted to customers who have reserved a parking space in advance.
Information:
It is proposed to increase parking charges in six car parks for the duration of the English Riviera Air Show event.
