Parking
There is a Car Park at the Stadium which can be used by both home and away fans if they arrive in decent time as it does get full quite quickly and there is a fee of around £5.00 to use this car park.
Alternatively there is a free Car Park just down the road from the Stadium which is used as a Car Park all the time but actually looks like a patch of waste ground. There are also a number of other smaller privately run car parks in the area around the Stadium.
For directions to both of these Parking areas see Directions below.
By Road
From Liverpool/Manchester:
Exit the M62 at Junction 24 and at the roundabout take the third exit (under the Motorway) and down the hill. At the next roundabout take the fourth exit (Brighouse Road A643) and then take an almost immediate right turn onto a country lane which also heads downhill and from here you can also see the Stadium in the distance.
Follow this road for around two miles (with a few sharp bends along the way) and go straight over the first set of lights at the crossroads. At the next set of lights (with a Pub on your right) take the exit straight ahead (but slightly to the left as you approach the lights), go under the Railway Bridge and the bottom of this road turn right. After a few hundred yards, the entrance to the Stadium and Car Park is on the left at the next set of lights.
If you prefer to park away from the Stadium itself, continue straight ahead at the lights and after the pedestrian crossing is a Car Park on waste ground on the right hand side.
By Train
Huddersfield Rail Station is a 15-20 minute from walk from the Stadium and the station is served by trains from Manchester and Leeds.

Around the Ground
There are the usual food facilities inside the Stadium although Huddersfield is one of a couple of League One Grounds which does not serve the usual Burgers and Hot Dogs, with Pies and Pizza Pods preferred.
The Town Centre is around a fifteen minute walk from the Stadium but there is also a Cinema complex on the far side of the Stadium from the Car Park which has a Pizza Hut within it.
There are a number of Pubs in the Town Centre and on the walking route from there to the Stadium but there is also a Bar facility within the away end.
