Directions and match day information

Directions And Information For Away Supporters
Supporters coming to the new stadium are being advised to use the Park and Ride facility at Swansea Vale off Junction 45 of the M4 to ensure that they arrive at the new £27m facility quickly, easily and safely.

The City and County of Swansea, together with the Stadium Management Company, local police and First Cymru, have produced a Travel Plan for the new 20,500 capacity venue. It was developed after many hours of consultation, including visits to St Mary's Stadium in Southampton and the Majeski Stadium in Reading.

A large Park and Ride site has been set aside at Swansea Vale. Frequent buses will take supporters to and from matches, dropping them off and picking them up close to the stadium at a cost of £5 per car. Local transport provider First Cymru will be laying on extra buses from the Quadrant Bus Station and fans will be met by bus at the main Swansea rail station.

Car drivers will be encouraged to share journeys by registering on the regional car share database switch2share.com. Information about car sharing, public transport and how best to access the venue will all be provided via a "Modus" plan to each and every season ticket holder.

The stadium is also ideally placed on the excellent route 43 of the National Cycle network. Fans cycling to the stadium can safely store their bikes in new racks which have been provided by the developer.
