Carlisle United travel guide

Getting there & parking

Brunton Park is east of Carlisle centre, around 20-25 minutes on foot from the station and only a short drive from M6 Junction 43. The large supporter car park is useful but can be affected by flooding.

Official matchday parking

The east-side supporter car park normally opens at 12:30 for a Saturday 3pm game. Carlisle currently publishes £5 car parking, £15 minibuses and £20 coaches, paid on the day; the car charge is stated as cash only.

The car park is vulnerable to flooding and arrangements may change. Check the club's matchday update before setting off and allow for a possible hold while pedestrians and coaches clear.

Private matchday parking

JustPark's dedicated Brunton Park page lists reservable private driveways and managed event spaces around CA1 and the city centre.

Compare the walk with the post-match road layout and choose a booking that remains valid if the fixture runs late.

Availability, prices and access arrangements can change by fixture. Always check the booking details before travelling.

By train

Carlisle station is roughly 1.2 miles from Brunton Park. The usual 20-25 minute walk runs through the centre and east along Warwick Road.

Long-distance services are good by National League standards, but check engineering work and the final connection, especially for evening or Sunday fixtures.

By bus or taxi

Buses use Warwick Road and stop near the ground. A taxi is a short trip from the station, though congestion and road controls can make walking more reliable close to kick-off.

Driving

Leave the M6 at Junction 43 and follow the A69/Warwick Road towards the city. Brunton Park is about 1.5 miles from the junction.

Nearby streets include disc and time-limited zones. Read every sign and do not assume a two-hour bay covers the full matchday visit.

After the match

Warwick Road and the on-site car park can empty slowly. Rail passengers should leave enough time to walk back; drivers should not plan a tight motorway connection.

Travel, parking, ticket allocations and stadium procedures can change by fixture. Check the latest information from both clubs and the relevant operator before travelling. Guide checked 12 September 2026.
