The Cheapest Parking garage in Groningen

So you changed your mind, maybe because you have a really expensive car and you prefer to leave it indoors. But you want to have a bargain and are willing to do a little bit of walking. Then check this garage:

Circus Parking Garage

The Circus parking garage is the one and only cheapest commercial parking garage in Groningen. This parking is located underneath the 'De Beren' shopping center with 2 supermarkets, a liquor store, book store and a drug store and more.

Simple and affordable parking but not that well-known. We don't understand why, because did you know it is actually exact a 9 minutes walk to Grote Markt in Groningen? Maybe it is because it has only 2 charging spots for cars?

 But, if you have to be in the shopping center or on Korreweg this is ofcourse your parking.

The most expensive parking garage of Groningen

Okay, you are a princess. You choose to go shopping on your stiletto's and just don't want to walk the extra mile. You want to enjoy beauty and style, also when you are parking. You have a big car and want to see art when you have parked your car. Also, you wan't to be sure you can put your car on a charging point whilst you are living the good life in the city of Groningen.

Parking Forum

Since the opening of Groninger Forum, on November 29, 2019, you can park under Forum Groningen and it has high reviews from visitors.

Great parking, although certainly not the cheapest in Groningen City. But if you are looking for a garage on a prime location in the heart of the city center, then you found here what you are looking for! So, are you going for a day of shopping in the center of Groningen? Go early on the saturday if you want to be ensured of a spot. It can be full but then it is marked with a sign. Park very easily nearby in the Forum parking garage.

It is also the parking with the most charging points for elektrical cars.

The garage is bright and has a big LED artwork in the center. Check out the video:

The name of the artwork is 'Wervel'.
