Going to Doncaster?

Doncaster Rovers

Directions

From the A1(M) join M18 Eastbound at Junction 35 (signposted Hull) or from the M1 and join the M18 Eastbound at Junction 32.

Once on the M18, leave at Junction 3 and take the A6182 towards Doncaster (the stadium is well signposted from Junction 3 and is about one and a half miles away). You will pass a retail park on your left and then at the next island (which has the Lakeside Pub visible behind it) turn left onto White Rose Way. The Lakeside Shopping Centre is now on your right (the stadium is located directly behind the shopping centre). At the next island turn right onto the industrial estate and after passing the Tesco distribution centre on your right, turn right at the bottom of the road and the stadium is further down on your left.

There are just 1,000 car parking spaces at the stadium, which will mean that for the bigger games, parking will be at a premium. There are 60 parking spaces reserved for disabled fans on a first come first served basis. The cost of parking at the stadium is £5. A number of firms on the nearby industrial park may offer match day parking at around £3-£4 per vehicle. If you happen to arrive a couple of hours before kickoff then there is also some free street parking to be had in this area.

Distance 78 miles, approx 1 hour 30 mins dependent on road conditions….



Pubs

As the stadium is on the outskirts of town,  there is not much choice in the way of pubs. There is though the Lakeside, a Beefeater outlet near Stadium Way (you should catch sight of it, if you drive towards the stadium from Junction 3 of the M18).

By Train

Doncaster Station is just under two miles away so you are probably best taking a taxi to the ground.  If you do have time on your hands and you fancy the long walk (around 35-45 minutes) on coming out of the railway station, walk to the dual carriageway across the car parking area and turn to face to your right (i.e. away from the road tunnel under the Frenchgate shopping centre). You are now looking down a more or less straight line to the stadium. Provided you then use the appropriate places to cross roads as necessary you just follow the line of the dual carriageway to the roundabout adjacent to Vardy's Renault dealership. Then turn left into Middle Bank and follow the road round to the stadium.
Trains take 1 hour 30 mins – 2 hours, cheap day return £29-50
