There is free parking next to the Academy for 250 cars, plus free on street parking nearby. There is also limited disabled parking within the grounds, so please make yourself known to the show staff at the gate if you require entry.
 
By bus, the 164 bus runs from the Chatham Waterfront Bus Station to the Academy every 20 minutes at 10, 30 & 50 minutes past the hour, taking around 7 minutes. On Sunday, the service is hourly at 15 minutes past the hour. Returning to the bus station, you will need to catch the bus from the bus stop you get off at, as it does not return the opposite way.
