Concerts & Major Events

We have been working hard alongside Liverpool City Council, Merseytravel and other external stakeholders to ensure that appropriate plans have been put in place to help minimise the impact that crowds may have on the local community and transport routes in the Anfield area during the concert season.

We are mindful that the stadium is situated in a residential area, and we are keen to minimise the impact on the local community where possible.

Here you will find all the necessary information for concerts including;

Taylor Swift (Thursday 13th June)

Concert Map & Transport

The map below outlines the stadium footprint and the transport plan for the concert for all show days.

Road Closures

The following road closures will be in operation during concerts at Anfield Stadium:

• Walton Breck Road (both carriageways) will be closed from 12 noon the day of each concert when a temporary road closure will be put in place to enable crowds to enter and leave the stadium safely. The road will then remain closed until midnight or such earlier time as it is deemed safe. Pedestrian access will be maintained during this time – direction signage will be in place to direct pedestrians in the area.
• Anfield Road will remain a no-through road due to LFC’s Anfield Road Stadium Expansion and the stage build. Pedestrian access will be available via Dhalia walk.
• Arkles Lane will be closed post-event to allow for the safe usage and queuing of the 917 bus. This has been positioned here to minimise pedestrians queuing in residential areas.

Parking at the Stadium

Ticket holders have been advised that there is no car parking available at the stadium and should therefore utilise public transport to travel to Anfield. Should anyone wish to park on the day of the event they will be directed to city centre car parks and advised to take the 917-bus service, or other local train, and bus services to the stadium.

For disabled and ambulant audience members, there is limited disabled car parking available on Stanley Car Park, which must be pre-booked. There are disabled drop-off and pick-up areas on Arkles Lane and Gilman Street, which service both sides of the stadium. Pick up and drop off areas for all other vehicles are on Priory Road. Coach parking will also be located on Priory Road.

Ticket holders have also been made aware that Anfield Stadium is located in a residential area with a residents parking scheme in operation. Attendees have been advised NOT to park on residential streets as parking enforcement will be in operation. Any illegally parked cars will incur a fine.

The Football Match Parking Zone (FMPZ) operates from 22:00 – 00:00 from 1 August to 30 June. This time period will allow enforcement, if necessary, to take place to cover all potential match times, concerts, and major events.
