FAQs

Are you far from the city centre?

Not far at all! Sneinton Market Avenues is only a 10 minute walk from Old Market Square in the middle of the city. From there, walk up Pelham Street, then down the hill through Hockley. When you reach The Carousel on your left, Sneinton Market Avenues is just ahead of you, on the other side of Lower Parliament Street. For more directions, visit our ‘How to Get Here’ page.

Do you have parking?

There’s no parking available directly on the Avenues site - vehicles are only allowed onto the Avenues for deliveries to the businesses based here. Pay and Display on-street parking is available close by on Gedling Street and Brook Street, and the Sneinton Market car park is only a short walk away, accessible via Aberdeen Street. The first hour here is free. For more info, visit our ‘How to Get Here’ page.
