Leicester Riders, Leicester Riders Foundation and Mattioli Arena Interim CEO Simon Winfield provides an update on the Club’s revised car parking charges.

Dear Supporters,

Following the first two home games of the season, we have conducted a thorough review of the recently introduced car parking fees. As part of this process, we consulted with the official supporters’ club, listened to individual fans, and held internal discussions within the business.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who took the time to provide feedback and share their thoughts. Your input is invaluable to us. Our goal is not only to grow and develop the Club, but also to ensure we continue to recognise and appreciate the tremendous support of our fans. Together, we aim to create a winning team and an enjoyable, memorable game night experience for all.

The majority of feedback we received acknowledged that the introduction of car parking fees is understandable. However, many of you expressed concerns that the initial prices were too high. We’ve listened to those concerns and, in response, have revised our car parking charges for future home games.

The new fees are as follows:

• £6 for parking on Memory Lane, covering the two car parks linked to Leicester College.
• £12 for Premium Parking within the main Arena Car Park.
• £6 for disabled parking in the main Arena Car Park (valid disabled parking pass required).

All revenue generated from car parking fees will be directly reinvested into the Club and its Foundation. These funds help us support the teams, enhance the game night experience and contribute to the many projects run by the Foundation as we continue our commitment to reinvesting back into our community.

Car Parking Passes can be purchased online at the same time as your game ticket- you will need to show your QR code at the time of entering the car park. We strongly advise supporters to purchase in advance in order to make entry to the car park as safe and quick as possible for everyone. This is the only way to guarantee your parking space for the game.

We are conscious that some fans have purchased their car parking for future games, and arrangements will be made to refund any difference in the costs within the next 14 days.

Once again, we truly appreciate your support and feedback, and we look forward to welcoming you to our upcoming games!

Thank you for being part of the Riders family.

Regards,

Simon Winfield
