Make a day of it
Easter Road works especially well as a rail-and-walk trip. Supporters can base themselves around lower Leith Walk, Easter Road or central Edinburgh, then approach the South Stand with time for the matchday crowd.
Walk from Waverley via London Road, use a mapped venue and continue to Bothwell Street.
Use McDonald Road or Foot of the Walk, explore Leith and walk back south for kick-off.
Choose lower Leith Walk for proximity or central Edinburgh for the broadest evening and rail choice.
10:45 - arrive at Waverley and use Calton Hill, the Royal Mile or central Edinburgh if desired.
12:15-13:35 - move to lower Leith Walk or a mapped Easter Road option; do not rely on closed Middletons.
14:05 - walk to the South Stand entrance printed on the ticket.
17:00 - return on foot or wait for the first tram and road surge to ease.
The Hibernian map includes the current visiting route, two established pubs and a clearly labelled temporarily closed venue. Every pub may alter its door policy for the derby or other high-demand fixtures.
Calton Hill and the east end of Princes Street fit naturally between Waverley and the stadium. With more time, the Shore and Royal Yacht Britannia offer a fuller Leith visit but require tram or bus planning.
Park View House Hotel is east of the stadium beside Leith Links. Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh City Centre and Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh sit on the Waverley side of the walk and provide more conventional city options.
Malmaison Edinburgh at the Shore suits a longer Leith stay and needs a tram or bus to the match. Motel One Edinburgh-Princes and Apex Waterloo Place keep Waverley and the central evening close.
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 15 September 2026.
