Southampton travel guide

Getting there & parking

St Mary's Stadium is an away-day destination where the final approach matters. Check the fixture information before travel because parking, segregation and coach arrangements can change.

Parking options

Compare official and private matchday parking

Official matchday parking

There is no general turn-up supporter parking at St Mary's. The club directs visitors to Southampton City Council car parks or the Weekend Park and Ride at Adanac Park, SO16 0AZ; current match notices have advertised £5 including all-day parking and bus travel, but operation must be confirmed for the fixture.

Official coaches and pre-arranged minibuses use Melbourne Street under club instructions. Accessible stadium parking is extremely limited and must be bought or allocated in advance through the clubs.

Private matchday parking

JustPark lists reservable managed spaces and private driveways in Southampton. Search around the stadium postcode, then check the real walking route, access window and cancellation terms before booking.

Private spaces are independent of the club; a very close driveway may still sit inside the post-match traffic queue.

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

By train

Southampton Central is around 25-30 minutes on foot from St Mary's. A fixture-dependent shuttle links the station and stadium, while buses and taxis use the city-centre approaches; check return operation because road closures alter the post-match pickup points.

By bus or coach

Check the current local timetable for the final leg to St Mary's Stadium. Away coaches and minibuses should follow the instructions issued by the visiting club and must not assume a public parking bay.

Driving

Use the M3 and A33 into central Southampton, then follow event signs to the booked city car park or park-and-ride. The club advises supporters not to drive into the residential streets around St Mary's, where matchday restrictions and closures apply.

Use SO14 5FP only for the general area, then follow matchday signs and the entrance named in your parking instructions. Allow extra time for residential roads and pedestrian traffic.

After the match

Expect the roads immediately around St Mary's Stadium to move slowly while pedestrians clear. Rail users should confirm the last practical connection; drivers may prefer to wait before joining the main route.

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 26 September 2026.
