About Charles Street Car Park

Positioned within walking distance of Perth’s main streets, Charles Street Car Park caters to shoppers and those visiting the town centre. With around 43 spaces, there is a moderate amount of parking here — enough on quieter days, but it can get tight at peak times. This is a surface car park, so expect open-air parking at ground level. Parking here is paid. The car park is managed by Perth & Kinross Council.

When to Visit

Town centre car parks tend to be busiest on Saturdays as shoppers head to the high street. If you can, weekday mornings before 10am or Sundays offer a much calmer experience. Evenings can also work well if you’re visiting restaurants or catching a show. The car park has enough capacity for most normal demand, though Saturdays can get tight.
