As you may already know I'm gonna be in Camden tomorrow night for the filming of The Album Chart Show. Me and my friend plan on getting there approximately 20 hours early to be at the front. At this point you most likely will be thinking we are not right in the head and you'd be right ;D Anyway these 2 crazy insane people need to know, is there anywhere near to Camden we can park cheaply or if not can anyone tell us where we can park for free or cheap and get the tube into Camden? Do the tubes run all night or if not what time do they stop?
Finally if anyone wants to bring us food and hot drinks that would be most appreciated. We will be outside Kokos nightclub all day tomorrow until 7pm ;D

there is parking in camden, but if your 20hrs early ;D i'm guess you'll be there in the day, which means it is either permit only or expensive. which way do you drive? do you come in on M40 or M1? if its M40 i always park at Perivale, it is about £3 / day at the tube station to park its usually about £5 on the tube then and about 20mins. Although spaces are limited depending on what time you arrive, but there is another NCP secure car park up the road and also some free parking in some of the side streets. if its teh M1 you use, sorry can't be much help don't use that one very often. try this :- www.ncp.co.uk/multimapform.aspxi often get the tube map and play around to find car parks near tube stations, this site also gives you prices so you can compare. Actually you could start with camden. No, the tubes don't run all night they tend to run until about 1230am, but if you search the tube site for timetable, it will give you an option for first and last tube times. you can also print off your tube map here. www.tfl.gov.uk/tube/hope that helps, let me know if you need anymore info, i will beack online later. have a fun day ;D

VBB is this the Perivale one? yes thats the one i parked in when i went to the london fayre ;D did you find a carpark in camden? sometimes not too bad if your parking for a long time, and you save tube costs etc. i have driven to camden several times it is relatively easy, good luck ;D

sorry, not come across that before.
you may have to pre book the parking when you book your train ticket? but really not sure.
you could phone the rail ticket booking / help line and say your planning to catch the train and ask about parking, they may be able to help.
was it an NCP car park? does it give instructions on there website?
sorry i cant be anymore help
