Parking -

The Club has limited "on the day" parking.  As the Club is located in a residential area we recommend that visitors to the Brightside Ground travel by public transport.  For those that do choose to travel by car, parking for non pass holders is available for £8 in the City of Bristol College car park, off the Ashley Down Road (postcode BS7 9LU).  This is subject to availability and not guaranteed.

Pass holders (previously purchased 2016 parking permits, Premier Club members or blue badge holder) please travel to the Nevil Road entrance of The Brightside Ground, where parking is available on a first come first served basis although this cannot be guaranteed.

Wheelchair access is available at both entrances and the open nature of our ground means that wheelchairs can be readily accommodated.  If you have any questions please call our Reception on 0117 910 8000 or email reception@glosccc.co.uk

Entertainment -

For all NatWest T20 Blast matches there will be a variety of activities for all ages.  This year we are bringing even more fun and entertainment to the Brightside Ground including the opportunity to improve your bowling skills with coaches in the inflatable bowling lane, zorb racing and also a player signing session at the close of play. When you arrive make sure you keep an eye out for the FREE goodies that we have, such as 4 & 6 cards, GlosCricket headbands and flags.

Stewarding -

For all NatWest T20 Blast matches during the 2016 season we have increased the number of stewards in and around the ground by over 30% and there will also be a Police presence in the area.  We would ask all visitors to the ground to respect our local neighbours and leave the premises quietly at the end of a match.
