Getting here and parking couldn’t be easier...

Parking in Luton town centre at The Mall couldn’t be easier.

Market & Central Car Parks 

Take Junction 10 off the M1 and follow the signs to the town centre. Once on Gipsy Lane (A505) continue straight through the roundabout approaching St Mary’s Road, where you will see a large church on your left hand side, remaining in the left hand lane pass through the first set of traffic lights. The Mall Luton will be on your left. A car park entrance can be found by taking the first slip road to the left (John Street) and following the road in to Melson Street which will lead you into Market Car Park.

Central Car Park is situated off Cheapside and can be found by continuing further along to the end of John Street.

Please note Central Car Park is closed on Easter Sunday – there will be no access for entry to this car park.

How our contactless car park works:

  • Drive into the car park – the ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) will read your number plate and let you in.
  • Park and go shopping.

  • Drive out – the ANPR will read your number plate, recognise that you have paid, and let you out.
