Any help or ideas please? I drove about 7 years ago and street parked about a 25 minute walk away, but cannot remember where, and I understand the ‘residents only’ restricted area has been enlarged in recent years. Any ideas appreciated, thank you.

Leicester parking is probably what they should have done with their bus at 2-1 up tonight.

There are plenty of pop-up ‘matchday parking’ facilities for £5-£10 in Leicester in my experience when you get a mile or two from the ground

We did similar on JustPark. It was an office car park, they gave us the code for the gate. 20-30min walk to ground but far enough away that we got away with no traffic

The website I looked on suggested using the parking at Leicester Tigers ground. It's only a short walk from there to the King Power

We usually street park in the Clarendon Park area off the Weldon Rd, near Victoria park and walk through the industrial estate. There’s usually pop up park in the industrial estate opposite the King Power.

That's what I'd do too (Welford Road)

We usually park there then go in the pub opposite, The Donkey? but fills up with Leicester so might try the Counting House this time.
