DIRECTIONS TO THE BET365 STADIUM
Motorway:
The bet365 Stadium is a five-minute drive away from Junction 15 of the M6 for those travelling from the north or south, and is also the last turn off on the A50 when heading from the east. You can also reach it from the west via the A500 at junction 16 of the M6. Once near the ground, simply follow the signs.

The station offers a bar owned by Titanic Brewery, a local brewery, Bureau de Change, ATM machine and two coffee shops, along with toilet and Wi-Fi facilities.
Please note that away supporters are often met by the police at the railway station and taken to Staffordshire University or a pub near to it for refreshments. They are then shuttle bussed up to the bet365 Stadium.
