How to Get to Goodison Park or Anfield on Match Day

Liverpool City Skyline

Liverpool is home to two of the most iconic football clubs in the world — Liverpool FC at Anfield and Everton FC at Goodison Park. On match day, thousands of fans flood into the city, making travel and parking a real challenge. Whether you’re a local supporter, a travelling away fan, or an international visitor, here’s your complete guide to getting to Anfield or Goodison Park with ease.


🏟️ Stadium Locations

Both stadiums are located in the north of Liverpool, just a 15-minute drive from the city centre and less than a mile apart.

  • Anfield (Liverpool FC): Anfield Rd, Liverpool L4 0TH
  • Goodison Park (Everton FC): Goodison Rd, Liverpool L4 4EL

🚆 Getting There by Public Transport

From Liverpool City Centre:

  • Bus to Anfield: Routes 26, 27 and 917 (matchday specials)
  • Bus to Goodison: Routes 19, 20, 21, or 310

Nearest Train Stations:

  • Sandhills Station (with SoccerBus service to both grounds)
  • Kirkdale Station (10–15 mins walk to Goodison Park)
  • Liverpool Lime Street (mainline connection + bus or taxi)

⚠️ Public transport gets very busy on matchdays, and services may be delayed.


🚶 Walking from City Centre

While it’s a bit of a stretch, you can walk to both stadiums from the city centre in around 40–45 minutes. It’s not ideal with young children or during bad weather, but some fans enjoy the pre-match buzz and stop at local pubs on the way.


🅿️ Parking at the Stadiums

There is no public parking at either stadium on matchdays. Nearby residential streets are mostly permit-only, and you risk getting fined. Paid parking options are limited and fill up fast.

For convenience and peace of mind, booking a private transfer with DM Airport Transfers is the best option, especially for groups or fans travelling with luggage.
