Parking Hilversum Media Park, Hilversum

Parking Hilversum Media Park can be tricky on busy filming and event days, so it helps to know which options are available before you arrive. Below you’ll find practical parking details for Media Park itself and the nearby public streets—plus a straightforward alternative when you want certainty.

Pre-book private parking for Hilversum Media Park visitors (Mobypark)

Mobypark lets you book private parking spots that are typically offered by owners who don’t use them continuously (for example hotel parking, office building spaces, private driveways, and unused garage areas). Instead of circling public streets at the last minute, you can compare availability in advance and arrive knowing your parking is reserved.

If you’re comparing with on-site parking at Media Park, Mobypark can be especially useful when the garage/deck is likely to fill up around the start of a programme—your booking removes the uncertainty.

On-site parking at Media Park (Parkeerdek / garage A)

Media Park provides visitor parking facilities (notably parking deck / garage A). The Media Park info page states a rate of €2.00 per hour, with 24/7 access for the parking facility (the campus is private and visitors are welcome around the start time of recordings/events, with exit possible after).

For Beeld & Geluid at Media Park, the practical parking info confirms €2.00 per hour and a maximum day rate of €12.00. The stated garage access hours are 06:00–20:00, and the garage has a maximum vehicle height of 2.0 metres.

How you pay: parking uses machines where you can pay via PIN code at the pay station, and you can also pay contactless with your debit card (up to €50 per transaction).

• If you need a quick drop-off and you’re within the height limits, on-site parking is usually the most direct choice.
• If you arrive at peak moment and you want to avoid the risk of “no space”, pre-booking via Mobypark is a practical comparison to make before you go.

Street parking and municipal rules in Hilversum

Outside the Media Park facilities, you’ll typically rely on public street parking in Hilversum. Aggregated local parking advice puts street parking costs at up to about €3.20 per hour (depending on location and time). Hilversum also runs paid parking control and uses automated checking.

In practice: treat street parking near Media Park as time-limited and paid unless signs clearly say otherwise, and don’t assume you can stay longer than the posted maximum. If you have a resident or special permit (or parking for people with disabilities), the municipality’s permit rules can apply—but for most visitors, paying attention to the signs is essential.

When you want to park without spending time reading signage and checking availability, booking a private off-street option on Mobypark can be simpler than trying to “guess” street availability after you drive into the area.

Pick the right option for your timing (few hours vs. all-day)

Use your planned parking duration to decide what’s best:

• Shorter stays (e.g., a programme slot): on-site rates run by the hour at Media Park. If you’re comparing hourly cost, Mobypark private spots can be a cheaper per-hour alternative to the €2.00/hour rate.
• Longer stays: Beeld & Geluid’s garage mentions a max day tariff (€12.00). Before you commit, compare that cap with what your dates would cost you on a pre-booked private spot, since day pricing can vary by operator/spot type.
• Event-day pressure: arrive later and you’ll often find more choices—arrive right at start time and on-site space can be tighter. In that scenario, Mobypark’s reserved parking is the “low-stress” comparison to make.

EV charging, height limits, and accessibility

If you drive an electric vehicle, Beeld & Geluid’s garage is described as having charging poles. Also note the 2.0 m height limit in that garage—if your vehicle is taller, you’ll need to use another facility or an off-street alternative.

For accessible parking, rely on the marked accessible bays where available, and if you’re unsure what fits your vehicle or needs, use the booking search to compare suitable spot types before arrival.
