Free race day parking at Epsom Downs, open daylight hours
The Mound Car Park is a free council-operated surface lot serving Epsom Downs racecourse events. It provides 120 marked bays including eight disabled-access spaces located near the main racecourse entrance. Operating hours are sunriseĀsunset on non-race days and extended during race meets; no parking fees apply except during events when a flat fee is charged. The tarmac surface is grooved for drainage and inspected quarterly; any potholes are patched within 48 hours. No lighting or CCTV is installed to preserve the rural ambiance; visitors are advised to park during daylight. Pedestrian pathways lead directly to the racecourse entrance (3 minutes walk) and to local bus stops on Royal Drive (4 minutes). No EV charging is available; nearest public charger is at Hook Road multi-storey car park, a 12-minute drive away. Biweekly litter clearance and seasonal hedge trimming keep the area tidy for racegoers.
