By park and ride

Anfield is a residential area with a resident-only parking scheme in operation. The best way to arrive by car is to use the 'park and ride' services from regional train stations or city centre buses.

Parking enforcement will be in operation around the stadium, and any illegally parked cars will incur a fine and may be subject of removal.

There is NO general paid parking available on Stanley car park or Utting Avenue, except for those pre-allocated slots for disabled supporters or those over the age of 65. To apply for parking, please contact the Disability Ticketing Team.

By walking or cycling

Walking and cycling to Anfield are great ways to beat the traffic and to travel sustainably.

The Cycle Hub is a FREE service that allows fans who cycle to the game to drop off and park their bike safely and securely at the top of Stanley Park car park. Simply ride to the Cycle Hub, where staff will register your bike. Please ensure you have a cycle lock with you.

There are also walking routes from the city centre which are clearly signposted to help you get to the stadium on foot.
