Reserved a parking spot question

MrCostington

Hi I went online an reserved a booking space with APCOA at TRINITY STREET car park (Dublin) for tonight at 7.00.

I've never done this before and assumed they would give you a specific numbered space, but here are the instructions below. Given the Coldplay gig, how can I be sure it wont be full?

Entry/Exit procedure:

• On arrival at the entry barrier, the car park system will read your registration plate and match this to your booking.  The barrier will lift automatically and you can drive into the area and park your vehicle.  Your registration number is your reference as this is a ticketless carpark and no validation is required, if you need assistance please push the intercom button at the entry barrier.

Generally those car parks are very quiet in the evenings and they’ll have a good idea how many spaces they can pre-sell. It’s up to them to make sure there there will be space for you but it won’t be an assigned space. Check the T&Cs, there could be a maximum time they’ll hold your space for you.

That's the standard practice.

There's many more than middle aged women who can't park square in a space. Indeed I've seen more younger men do it than any others.

OP, those instructions are the usual for car parks nowadays.

I forgot about the FULL sign! I guess that's how it works, thanks.
