You will be able to apply for a permit during your open day booking if there is space available, if there is no option to apply during your booking then there are no spaces available. Therefore, we recommend using the local park & ride services or public car parks which can be found a short distance from campus.

We offer accessible parking permits to guests with blue badges or to those with any specific needs which would require accessible parking. Please email opendays@winchester.ac.uk directly for more information about requesting a permit.
