Directions

Parking
Parking is freely available at the stadium providing you arrive in good time. Street parking also exists in the surrounding streets. However, train and bus services are very frequent and reliable and allow easy access to and from regardless of the direction you're coming from.

By Train
Cardiff has a central station where trains arrive from all over the UK. The station is right in the city centre and you come out into the central bus station. You can get local connections from here to stations closer to the stadium, Ninian Park Halt and Grange town. It is a brisk fifteen minute walk to the ground from the central station and a steady ten minute walk from Grange town station; however Ninian Park Halt is only one hundred yards away from the ground.

Ninian Park Halt is where the vast majority of home fans gather after the game to get trains back to the City centre and beyond, it is very crowded after a game.

Stadium Info
The Cardiff City stadium was officially opened on 22 July 2009 and is the second largest ground in Wales trailing only the Millennium Stadium. Much like similar builds at Reading and Coventry, three sides of the bowl shaped stadium are single tier, with a second tier added to the main stand. There are no bad seats in the house.

Away Fans
Upto 2,000 visiting supporters can be accomodated in one corner of the ground between the Grange and Ninian stands. Views are excellent and facilities and leg room are also as good as you'd expect to find from a stadium as new as this. Home fans are well known for hostility unfortunately so it's best to keep your wits about you and any colours are best kept covered, in and around the local vacinity including the town centre, until inside the ground.

Food and Drink
The town centre is your best bet for getting a few drinks before the game. However, if you're an away fan be conscious of where you choose to drink. Brendan Murphy tells me "The Canton Rugby Club is a perfectly safe place for away fans to drink before and after the game and club colours are invited to be worn".

Also in the town centre are many chain restaurants and fast food establishments so you wont be short of places to go. Infact, the wetherspoons in the centre serves a good array of food and drink to set you up well before or after the game.
