Parking near the London Eye

Our Waterloo forecourt is the closest pre-bookable car park to the London Eye — six minutes on foot, with the walk taking you along Belvedere Road past the Royal Festival Hall and onto Jubilee Gardens. Open ANPR forecourt: drive in, the cameras read your plate, your booking covers you.

Walking route from the car park to the London Eye

From the Waterloo forecourt at 39 York Road, head east toward Belvedere Road (under a minute). Turn right and walk along Belvedere Road past the Royal Festival Hall and the Southbank Centre. Continue onto Jubilee Gardens — the London Eye queue sits on your left as the park opens up to the Thames. Total walking time: six minutes at a steady pace.

If you’re collecting tickets at the South Bank ticket office in County Hall (riverside building under the Eye), the same walking route takes you straight to the entrance.
