      To get you the rest of the way, Edinburgh has a great public transport system.

      Travel guidance

      Our trains can get extremely busy during popular events at Murrayfield Stadium. Please allow extra time for boarding and when you’re onboard make use of overhead racks to store suitcases and holdalls. This leaves the larger racks at the ends of the coaches free for bigger suitcases.

      Public transport to and from the venue will also be busy, so please leave plenty of time and plan ahead for your journey.

      For evening kick-offs, please be mindful of the time of the last train out of Edinburgh Waverley. If your match is delayed or goes into extra time, you may not make it back in time for your booked train.
