How do I get to the ground?
Postcode for the ground is YO32 9AE. It is advised to follow the guidance in the ‘Where’s best place to park’ section rather than drive to the stadium.
What stand are we in?
We’re located in the ‘West Stand’ which is along the side of the pitch.
Where is the best place to park?
There’s plenty of parking in the city centre, where you can catch a shuttle bus to the ground or you can use the park and ride.
The Y22 shuttle bus between Stonebow and the LNER Community Stadium is available. If you’re looking to use this, you need to purchase from the First Bus app – Adults £3.50 return and child/concession £2 return.
There is a dedicated area with the Monks Cross park and ride for 400 cars. Tickets must be purchased in advance from here. The service runs every 12 minutes before and after the game.
Parking for disabled supporters?
Any supporters required disabled parking need to call the home ticket office on 01904 950950.
What is the nearest train station to the stadium and what is the approximate distance and walking time?
York station is around 3 miles away from the stadium so a taxi or bus to the ground is likely needed!

Postern Gate (Wetherspoons) – YO1 9NX
