"It’s based on the idea that feeding a parking meter is like “renting” a space. There is no rule that says you have to only park a car, so why not park a park? Every September, people around the world are now transforming ‘car parks’ to ‘people parks’. These PARKs are fun, creative social spaces that become surprising additions to everyday street environments, and become powerful visual symbols of communities wanting to improve urban quality."

If you or your group is interested in reclaiming a parking space on Friday September 19 and use it for a transport display, park, music performance area, cafe etc. to show people a more enjoyable, fun and useful alternative to a car focused city then please register your interest at
