We’re looking forward to welcoming some friendly faces back to the Dock. It’s still the place we know and love, but some things will be different, our retailers, restaurants, bars, cafes and attractions may have new opening times, booking systems and seating arrangements – so please spend a bit of time planning your visit before you join us.

We can’t wait to have you back, and are doing everything we can to ensure people’s safety across the site. You may need to book at some venues, and we’ve also increased outside space so you can enjoy the best views in the city.

From Friday 24 July face coverings must be worn when you’re in a shop, or collecting a takeaway. They can be either a specially-designed face mask, or a scarf or bandana that covers your nose and mouth – as long as it fits securely, without you holding on to it. This follows government guidance and is designed to protect both you and the people around you.

And we’ve introduced some guidance to keep everyone safe. Please follow instructions from the Dock team to keep things moving smoothly and maintain social distancing we’ve put markers down to help. Give way to others wherever you need to pass and wash your hands and use hand sanitiser where available.

Some public transport services may have changed. Please check public transport timetables before you travel but you can also visit us by walking or driving. We’ve introduced contactless parking payments to keep you safe – check the parking here for more details. You’ll find our full visitor information here.

We’re doing everything we can to keep this information up to date but please be aware operator timings might be subject to last minute alterations. Please check individual operator details before you arrive, online or by phone.

We will be updating this site alongside our social media accounts – on a daily basis, with reopening information. Make sure you check back!
