Times are a guide from the published kick-off — always allow extra for engineering works and matchday road closures.
Getting there
- Leicester station — 20 minutes' walk down the Oxford Street/Filbert Way route, or a short taxi ride.
- Bus from the station — Several services run close to the ground for those who prefer not to walk.
- Driving — M1 J21, then follow signs; official car parks near the ground fill early for a Premier League-sized club.
Safe away spots
- The Local Hero, Leicester — Pub near the ground celebrating the 2016 title win, popular with home and away fans. Map
- Leicester Market — One of the largest outdoor markets in Europe, cheap eats in the centre. Map
- King Power Stadium concourse — Extensive range befitting a big ground, though queues can be long. Map
Worth the detour
National Space Centre
Major attraction a short drive from the centre, good for a family day.
Open in mapsRichard III Visitor Centre
Tells the story of the king found under a Leicester car park, in the city centre.
Open in mapsNew Walk
Leafy Georgian promenade linking the centre to the museum, a pleasant pre-match stroll.
Open in mapsOff the beaten track
Lower-profile pubs, cafés and corners the locals keep to themselves.
The Criterion, Leicester
Excellent real ale pub away from the main matchday strip, worth the short detour.
Open in mapsVictoria Park
Large green space south of the centre, quieter than the streets near the ground.
Open in mapsLeicester's Cultural Quarter cafés
Independent coffee spots around the Curve theatre, off the beaten path.

Transport alert
Standard Saturday
Nothing unusual in the Leicester diary for this date. Book advance rail tickets 12 weeks out and check the operator's works page the Monday before.
Ground note
As a club with recent Premier League and European history, ticket demand and pricing for away fans can be higher than typical League One fixtures.
Ground note
Filbert Way gets very congested in the hour before kick-off; allow plenty of time.
