      Ibrox Stadium is located just outside of Glasgow city centre. The stadium was originally known as Ibrox Park when it first opened in 1902 and was renamed in 1997 following several years of renovations. It is home to the Rangers Football Club which is one of the most successful football clubs in Scottish and European football. As the third-largest stadium in Scotland, Ibrox Stadium has a capacity of just over 50,800 seats across four covered stands.

      Where is Ibrox Stadium?

      Ibrox Stadium is located in Ibrox, Glasgow on the south side of the River Clyde, in a residential area. The stadium is three miles from Glasgow Central Station and is well connected by bus routes and the Glasgow Subway.

      How do I get to Ibrox Stadium?

      Ibrox Stadium is accessible via car, bus and train. If you are travelling by train, Glasgow Central Station is the nearest station and can be reached directly on an LNER train from London and Durham. Or indirectly via Edinburgh with popular LNER routes from London, Newcastle, York and Peterborough to Edinburgh. From Edinburgh Waverly Station you can get a direct train to Glasgow Central Station or Glasgow Queen Street Station on ScotRail which can be booked on the LNER website or app.

      If you are travelling by car, Ibrox Stadium is close to the M8 with Junction 26 (Hillingdon) or Junction 24 (Helen Street) both providing access to the stadium. There are several nearby car parks to choose from and we recommend planning ahead as they get very busy. On match days Ibrox Stadium offers free parking in the Albion Car Park but it is first-come first-served.
