Parking in Woolloongabba

Parking Woolloongabba

For the cricket fans among us, it doesn’t get much better than Woolloongabba. Excluding the Brisbane Cricket Ground, Woolloongabba has plenty to offer those who live, work and visit the suburb.

But one thing it doesn’t have plenty to offer is: parking.

That’s why, when Parkhound solved the problem of parking Woolloongabba residents faced, the locals, students, workforce and tourists alike all rejoiced. Finally, a parking solution that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.  

What is Parkhound?

The Parkhound platform was first created in 2013 to combat the lack of safe, affordable and conveniently located parking Brisbane & its suburbs—and the rest of Australia—are known for.

How the innovative online platform that turned the parking industry on its head works, is simple: it connects the people that need parking space with the people that have it.

We call these people drivers and hosts. Not only is the Parkhound platform easy for both groups of people to use, it’s also a mutually beneficial solution to the problem of parking Woolloongabba is facing.

Parkhound for Drivers

Take advantage of the cheap parking Woolloongabba hosts can offer you. All you need to do is head over to the Parkhound website, browse through the available listings and book the parking space you like. There’s also neighbouring suburbs like Kangaroo Point and West End that you can take advantage of for parking spots.

Before you start your Parkhound journey, it’s helpful to have answers to the following questions on hand:

• Do you need the monthly parking Woolloongabba hosts are offering, or something more short term?
• How much money are you looking to spend on a parking space?
• What kind of access requirements will you need?
• Do you have any specific amenities that you would like included in your parking space?
