Macquarie Centre has plenty of parking areas allowing for easy access.

There are up to 5,000 parking spaces available at Macquarie Centre, including Parents with Prams spaces, available in the Express Car Park and on Level 1 and 2 of the multi-deck and twin-deck car parks. Disabled parking is available at all entrances to the centre. Disabled parking for ShopMobility can be accessed from the Herring Road express ramp.

RATES 

The availability of free parking at the Macquarie Centre is limited to 3-hours only (excluding Express Car Park).


A licence plate recognition system captures and records the time of entry for each car and assigns this entry time to the car registration. Where a car exits and then re-enters the car park within 1-hour, additional parking charges apply (for the duration of the total time parked in the car park, from the time of the first recorded entry).
