Stadium Journey: Getting There on Game Day
Posted: Thu Apr 10, 2025 1:56 pm
Heading to the Swansea.com Stadium to watch the Swans in action?
Here's everything you need to know about making your way there without any hassle - especially handy for our Global Jacks who might be visiting for the first time!
Driving to the Stadium
Coming via the M4? Take Junction 45 and follow the brown "Stadium" signs, you can't miss them! Pop SA1 2FA into your Sat Nav to lead you straight there.
Watch out for the match-day buzz about 90 minutes before kick-off around Morfa Road and New Cut Road, traffic can build up quickly.
This is a heads-up for visitors: Wales introduced a 20mph limit on most urban roads in 2023, so keep an eye on your speed.
From Swansea city centre, you're looking at a 10-25 minute drive depending on match day traffic.
Where to Park Your Car
Landore Park and Ride:
Park up for £5 and hop on the shuttle bus to the ground - easy!
Disabled parking spaces are limited, so contact the club's Disability Liaison Officer as early as possible. Email: [email protected]
Watch out for those parking restrictions on residential streets - the traffic wardens know it's match day too!
Buses and Trains
You can catch the special match-day bus (Service 9) from the city centre, which runs two hours before kick-off.
Regular buses (4 and 4A) also stop nearby, but they get packed on match days.
Coming by train? Swansea Railway Station is about a 35-minute walk away, and it has direct connections to Cardiff, London, and other major cities.
A taxi from the station will cost around £10-£15 and take 10-15 minutes, traffic permitting.
After the match, you'll find taxi ranks by the West Stand for your journey back.
Walking to the Ground
Fancy stretching your legs? It's a pleasant 30-40 minute walk from the city centre.
Follow the River Tawe path from the Sailbridge - it's flat and straightforward.
Evening match? The main routes are well-lit, but some areas near the industrial estate can be darker.
Keep an eye on the Global Jacks website for our group walks - a great way to meet fellow fans before the match!
Timing Tips
The 30 minutes before kick-off see the biggest queues, so time your arrival to avoid them.
Tips for Our International Jacks
First visit? Pre-book your parking to save stress on the day.
Not sure about driving? Public transport might be your easiest option.
Give yourself plenty of extra time if you're not familiar with Swansea.
