Travel Tips & Road Closures

• Because Cardiff Arms Park is centrally located, public parking immediately around the stadium is extremely limited. On match days, no public parking is available on-site.
• Roads near the stadium may close or be restricted during large events. This can affect which bus stops are used. Please check for event day travel notices or disruption alerts.
• Arriving early is recommended: gates usually open about 1½ hours before kick-off so you’ve got time to find your stop, grab food, merchandise, etc.

Return Journeys

• After the match, buses will continue from Westgate Street and nearby stops.
• If your normal bus stop is affected by road closures, alternative stops will be in operation.
