The basics

If you have a bought a parking space and will be dirving via the M23/A23, we advise against driving onto London road (in order to join the A27 westbound)

Mill Road (which is parallel to waterhall, and is the vehicle access to Brighton 7s Festival) will be one way (closed westbound) and is only accessible at the (Devil's) Dyke Road/A2038 end

To avoid congestion on London Road, we suggest arriving via Devil's Dyke Road

How to do this is explanied below
