Drop-off: Central car park (FY1 5QE) has 6 coach bays for set-down and pick-up only, not for parking.
All are run by Blackpool Council. Details and postcodes are from the council's coach parking page and its individual car park pages, checked in October 2026. The coach page gives Gynn Square as FY1 3JR; we've used FY1 2JR, from the car park's own page.
Coach parking prices
The council's individual car park pages (Seasiders Way, Foxhall Village, Gynn Square, South car park and Banks Street) all list the same coach tariff:
| Length of stay | Price |
|---|---|
| Up to 45 minutes | £2.30 |
| Up to 4 hours | £6.80 |
| Up to 24 hours | £14.00 |
| Up to 48 hours | £19.60 |
| Up to 72 hours | £22.70 |
Budget for these prices. The council's general coach parking page shows slightly lower figures, from £2.20 to £22, but describes them as indicative rates from before its free parking offer.
Winter rate: the council's coach page lists £6.60 for up to 24 hours. It usually runs from the second week of November to the Thursday before Good Friday. Check the machine or the app to confirm it applies when you park.
Free coach parking
The council's website refers to a free 72-hour coach parking offer through the PayByPhone app, but its page, updated in August 2026, only confirms the offer was extended throughout 2025. Check with the council or in the PayByPhone app before relying on it.
Paying by phone
Use the coach code for your car park:
- Seasiders Way: 803831
- Foxhall Village: 803821
- Gynn Square: 803824
- South car park: 803835
- Banks Street: 803808
Central has no coach code, as its coach bays are for set-down and pick-up only.
Busy days
Seasiders Way can be switched to cars only, or coaches only, at the duty supervisor's discretion when the town is busy. On those days South car park's coach bays may open as overflow. Some of its bays are currently taken up by mobile clinic vehicles. For dispensations, or to report a problem, call the council's parking dispatch office on 01253 476395.
