By car: North/South/West: M6 to J15. Take the A500 to Stoke-on-Trent then the A50 to Derby/Uttoxeter (the Britannia Stadium is signposted and visible on the sky-line to the right). Once on the A50 drive past the stadium on the right to the first exit and come back down the westbound carriageway of the A50.
East: A50 all the way to Stoke-on-Trent. Stadium to the left. Please note: on a matchday, access to the stadium from the A50 is strictly limited to coaches, permit holders and disabled supporters who have been allocated a parking space directly outside the stadium.
By rail: Supporters arriving by train can take a two-minute walk to Glebe Street in Stoke where buses run to the stadium at regular intervals. Otherwise it's a good hours walk to the ground.
By bus: Matchday buses leave Hanley (stand 11), Newcastle (stand D) and Longton (stand 10) bus stations and Stoke (Glebe Street) ONE HOUR before kick-off, with connecting bus services from all over the area. A shuttle bus service continues between Stoke (Glebe Street) and the Britannia Stadium at 15 minute intervals up until 15 minutes before kick-off. Return buses depart immediately after the match from bus terminals behind the Sentinel Stand (East). Normal fares apply.
Trouble Factor: Stoke has always had a big hooligan element and it still does. Keep colours out of sight until well inside the ground.
