The weather is exceptionally hot. For guidance on what to do if you see someone sleeping on the streets of Buckinghamshire see Severe Weather Emergency Provision (SWEP).

Request to set up free parking days

Local councils and committees can support local events by requesting free parking days at council car parks.

About free parking days

As a Town Council, Parish Council or High Wycombe BIDCO (Business Improvement District) you can request 2 separate days to set as free parking days at our car parks:

  • for each location listed below
  • for each calendar year

As a resident, charity, voluntary group or business, you can contact your local council or committee to suggest a day for free parking.

This is separate to free parking at Christmas.

Apply

Applications for free parking days in 2025 are now closed and the days have been agreed.

We expect to open applications for 2026 from December. We'll update this page later this year.

Contact your local council or High Wycombe BIDCO to request free parking days

Free parking days at Christmas

We'll provide 2 free parking days (the second and third Saturday in December) each year.

This will be for all car parks that support a High Street.

We'll publish more information later this year.
