Getting Here

The stadium is a short walk from the central business district of Wellington. Head to the Wellington Railway Station. Once there, join the elevated walkway that takes you directly to the stadium entrance. There are three access points to the walkway.

• from Thorndon Quay just north of the Railway Station
• from near Shed 21 on the Port
• directly from the Railway platforms (8/7, 6/5, 4/3)

The walkway is 650m long with harbour views. It takes approximately 5-10 minutes to walk the length of the walkway.

You'll find free bike stands on the ground floor of the stadium car park underneath the western pedestrian ramp, and on the eastern fence line at the top of the vehicle ramp.

Scooter parking is available on the eastern fence line at the top of the vehicle ramp and on the western fence line just before the pedestrian ramp. For major events such as rugby tests and concerts, all scooter parking locations move to Thorndon Quay, the Wellington Railway Station and the bottom of the Waterloo Quay over bridge to ensure patron safety on the Fran Wilde Walkway.

Vehicle access is off Waterloo Quay at the traffic lights opposite the entrance to CentrePort. A limited amount of parking is available at the stadium. Event day pricing may apply and spaces are limited. Please note: for some major events, car park closures and traffic restrictions may be put in place. Please check the relevant event page for up to date information.

Once the stadium car park is full, notices will be displayed on road signage and announced through our social channels. Vehicles seeking a park for the event will then be directed away from the stadium.

Before and after an event, the drop off point for taxis and shuttles is on the ground level adjacent to the pedestrian ramp. There is no rank for chartered or "ordered" taxi or shuttles. There may be delays following major events.

No taxis or shuttles are permitted on the upper plaza for at least 30 minutes after the end of the event. Priority will be given to mobility-impaired passengers who have pre-booked taxis or shuttles. The 30 minute limit is subject to all stadium shuttles having departed.

Please note for large events, taxis are required to drop off/pick up from Bunny St, Hinemoa St or Thorndon Quay. Check the specific event page for details.

On stadium event days only, there is limited motorcycle parking available underneath the Western pedestrian ramp at no charge.

Motorcycles are not permitted on the Fran Wilde Walkway at any time.

All regional train services arrive at the Wellington Railway Station. From there, it’s a short, direct walk along the Fran Wilde Walkway.
