Parking at Anfield Stadium

There is no car parking available at the stadium. If travelling by car, it's advised to use city centre car parks. An express shuttle bus service ( the 917 ) is available from Commutation Row to the Stadium and will operate 30 minutes before stadium gates open.

There are disabled drop off and pick up areas on Arkles Lane and Gilman Street, which service both sides of the stadium.

There are a number of residential streets surrounding the stadium. LFC strongly advises ticket holders not to park on any residential streets, as parking enforcement will be in operation during concerts and major events. Any illegally parked cars will incur a fine.
