Smithfield Market During The Olympic And Paralympic Games

It is business as usual at Smithfield Market during the Olympic and Paralympic Games.  Some changes have been put into effect to take account of the ORN/PRN and broadly these are as follows

From Sunday 22 July to Friday 14 September Market hours are extended, so that deliveries can be made earlier and sales can start from midnight or even earlier.  Please check with individual shops to see what times they will be open – their contact details are available via the traders tab.

Suppliers/deliveries to the Market

We will aim to unload deliveries as early as possible staring from 6pm onwards, Sunday to Thursday (except 26/27 August as 27 August is a bank holiday).  HOWEVER, you should check with all of your delivery locations for an exact time.  If you are delayed on your journey to the Market, please contact the business you are delivering to or the Market security office on 020 7332 3188.

Customers

The Market will be open for sales from midnight, or slightly before, so that full advantage of the unrestricted times (midnight to 6am) on the ORN/PRN can be taken.  Check with your specific shop for exact times.  Please note that 27 August is a bank holiday and so the Market will be closed that day.

Car Parking

There will be free car parking in the Rotunda Car Park for staff and customers from 6pm to midday the following day from 22 July to 12 August and from 26 August to 9 September).  Please make use of this concession to keep the roads around the Market free for traffic.

Further Information

The Transport for London website contains a lot of useful Games-related information, including a Code of Practice for night time deliveries.  Go to
