    Default Trailer parking at Sydney show

    Hello, I sent the following email to the show organisers via their website one month ago and haven't received a reply. Is anyone here able to tell me where I can part at Homebush with a 6x4 box trailer? Hopefully someone here knows!


    Last year when I attended the Sydney Wood Show I parked in the P1 carpark (the main one). I also had my standard 6' x 4' box trailer on - like I have since the show moved to Homebush (and some years when it was at Fox). When I was driving out, I was yelled out by a security guard that "trailers aren't allowed in here, d*ckhead".


    I want to go to the show this year, and will need to take my trailer to bring home what I buy. Could you please let me know if you know of any parking possibilities for people with trailers? I know I'm not the only one who brings a trailer.

    Many thanks.

    Last year, I took my trailer to pick up my new Laguna Fusion table saw. I stopped before the gate where there were 2 blokes trying to look busy. They contacted the control room and sent me to a parking area miles away from the show pavilion, which was full and another bloke sent me back to the first parking area which now had two different guards. "You can't park here." "I was sent here from where-ever" They then rang the control room again with my sob story, who asked how long I was planning on staying. When I said I was leaving at 4pm, all was sweetness and light. It seems that they were worried about the football crowd that night. There was no extra charge either.

    I got a reply from Olympic Park this week saying P5 is best with a trailer. It's down the back and out of the way - probably the same one you were directed to.
