Is it necessary to pre-book?
Yes, it's always a good idea to pre-book your parking space, especially if you have specific times and locations where you wish to park.
By pre-booking, you are guaranteed a spot, which can be particularly important if the parking facility tends to be very busy or if there are special events or occasions nearby that may affect parking availability.
By pre-booking, you avoid arriving at the parking facility and discovering it's already fully booked, which can be frustrating and time-consuming when trying to find an alternative parking option. So, to ensure a hassle-free parking experience and to enjoy the best benefits, it's always a good idea to pre-book your parking space whenever possible.

What should I do if I have a rental vehicle and do not know the vehicle’s registration number?

Can I drive out and back into the car park during the period booked?
It depends on the type of ticket you have purchased.
With a Single ticket, you can enter and exit the parking facility once. Once you exit the parking facility, your booking is no longer valid and you cannot re-enter.
With a Multi ticket, you may exit and re-enter the parking facility as often as you like for the entire duration of your booking.
