Seasonal event parking with accessible bays, flat-rate fee, and direct access to Air Show venue.
Air Show Orange Car Park is a seasonal facility operated by Clacton Carnival and Air Show organizers, located off West Road near the seafront. The lot offers 200 sealed asphalt bays, including eight accessible spaces nearest to the event entrances. Parking is free for local residents upon showing proof of address; for event attendees, a flat fee of £5 per day applies, payable via on-site attendants or mobile payment. Solar-powered LED bollards line pedestrian walkways from dusk until midnight during event weekends to ensure safe egress. A network of six CCTV cameras provides continuous surveillance throughout event days. Covered information boards display event schedules, seating maps, and local bus timetables for special event services to Clacton Station. Pedestrian pathways link directly to the seafront grandstand, food stalls, and first aid tents within a two-minute walk. Event-period maintenance includes line repainting, litter collection, and daily safety inspections to maintain a safe, organized environment.
