Pass offers parking at Cobourgs Waterfront all season long
Cobourg, ON (May 9, 2023) – The Town of Cobourg is making it more convenient for guests to Experience Cobourg’s Waterfront this summer season with the introduction of a new Visitor Waterfront Parking Pass.
The pass, priced at $150 for the season, allows non-residents to visit Cobourg’s beautiful waterfront and pay a flat rate for parking from the May long weekend until Thanksgiving. Parking at the Waterfront is currently $5/hour or a flat rate of $40/day from the May long weekend until Thanksgiving (in the winter season, there is no fee to park in this area).
Guests of the waterfront can choose to pay by the hour, or, for more frequent users, the Visitor Waterfront Parking Pass offers the convenience of parking anywhere along the waterfront, without having to be concerned about the number of hours spent.
Cobourg Council approved the new Visitor Waterfront Parking Pass at the April 11 Regular Council Meeting. Parking passes are available online at parking.cobourg.ca or by visiting the Finance Office in Victoria Hall (55 King Street West, Cobourg) open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekdays.
A variety of community and cultural events will be taking place in Cobourg this summer, including the Cobourg Waterfront Festival, the return of the Sandcastle Festival and Northumberland Ribfest. For a list of upcoming community and cultural events in Cobourg, visit ExperienceCobourg.ca.
