ParkJockey is now a member of the British Parking Association!

The time has finally arrived! After the initial launch of ParkJockey London where the team worked endless hours to get the show on the road, we proud to announce that we have now become an official member of the British Parking Association (BPA).

The 720 members of the BPA embrace manufacturers, car park operators, local authorities, health authorities, airports, railways, shopping centres, bailiffs and consultants – to that we can now add Mobile App Technology to the list – with ParkJockey becoming one of the first!

So what does becoming a member of the BPA mean? It is denoted that the BPA are the largest professional association in Europe and the recognised authority on parking. Their main aim is to represent and promote the best interests of the parking profession, and also influence those who are involved within this growing industry. Therefore, it can only mean ParkJockey is soon to be the word on the lips of many drivers, especially as they tire endlessly searching for parking – ParkJockey is going to be their first option and revolutionise the way you park, complimenting our business innovation award.

Strive for greatness, this is only the beginning . . . Watch this space!

What To Do This Saturday

We’re coming up on the second Saturday of the month, which can only mean one thing – WYNWOOD ARTWALK! If you’ve been living under a rock for the last few years (or perhaps you are new to Miami), here’s the scoop on what it’s all about:

Wynwood Art Walk is a gallery walk that takes place on the second Saturday of every month in the Wynwood Art District of Miami. It’s a free event that’s open to the public, originally created to showcase galleries in the neighborhood. Some of the must see galleries include Pan American Art Projects, Robert Fontaine Gallery and NOW contemporary. Insider tip – come hungry! The neighborhood boasts delicious restaurants but nothing beats checking out the extensive choices at the various food trucks that setup for the night. Some favs are Dim Ssäm à gogo (by the people who brought you Sakaya Kitchen), gastroPod, Ms. Cheezious, Latin Burger and Taco, and HipPOPS for dessert!

Art lovers start trickling in starting around 7pm, with a large crowd forming by 8pm. Parking can be tough to come by but that’s why you have ParkJockey! You can book your parking in advance here.

Don’t fluff around, use ParkJockey!

London at this time of the year is an exceptional place, with lots happening. And today brings us……International Pillow Fight Day! You heard me correctly, and say it slowly I-n-t-e-r-n-a-t-i-o-n-a-l Pillow Fight Day! It hits any special day out of the park!

For one day only, you have the freedom to take your spot centre stage in the heart of London, Trafalgar Square. Get your artillery by your side and release your working week stress, I quote “become a significant part of part of pop culture!” From London to Shanghai you can endure the satisfaction of throwing a pillow without a car in the world.

That’s what most people do when driving into Central London. So, if you are driving into Central London, firstly don’t get hit, and secondly, if you do get hit by traffic, especially when circling for parking, – fear not because ParkJockey will come to rescue! Book a parking space, and don’t worry about the fluff, or feathers, I mean fuss because its guaranteed and no one else can take it from you!

Don’t Be A Fool, Park with ParkJockey!

Today is the day the ‘world comes to the end’, ‘pigs start flying’ or ‘Arsenal win a trophy’. I’m joking, a bit of tomfoolery once a year doesn’t hurt anybody, does it? The 1^st of April 2014 is the one day of the year, you can make up an excuse to give someone the shock of their life – April Fools Day!

Check out this classic video posted by a youtuber, probably one of the funniest pranks we have ever seen:

Now, do you want to be made a fool of today!? Driving around looking like a fool happens on a daily basis particularly when in search of parking space.

Win that space race, don’t be made a fool of – otherwise, the demon of the infamous Mr. T will be on your shoulder, nagging your ear telling you “You should’ve parked with ParkJockey, fool!”
