It’s officially begun. Taylor Swift has officially touched down in Britain and commenced her UK leg of the Eras Tour. And following an epic three nights in Edinburgh, Liverpool’s up next.
From June 13 to June 15, a total of over 150,000 Swifties will be descending on Anfield Stadium (usually the home of Liverpool Football Club). To avoid missing out on the pre-concert buzz (and Paramore’s supporting set), you’ll need to figure out exactly how you’re getting to the venue.
Make sure to leave with plenty of time to spare, Liverpool is about to get packed. Here’s all the travel details you need to know.

How to get to Taylor Swift concerts in Liverpool
Bus
Bus driver strikes are happening at the same time that Taylor is in town, meaning there’s likely to be some disruption.
Stagecoach will be running the 917 shuttle bus from Commutation Row in the city centre to a pick-up and drop-off point on Arkles Road, next to the stadium. The service will start at 3.30pm each day.
You can also hop on the 26 from Liverpool ONE bus station, the 17 from Queen Square Bus Station. Then there’s the 68/168 services between Bootle and Aigburth and the 14 and 19 from Queen Square which all stop a short walk from the ground.
Train
One of the closest train stations to Anfield is Lime Street Railway Station. It’s around two miles from the stadium and there will be a support team there to help you find transport direct to the stadium.
You could also get the train to Sandhills or Kirkdales stations, which are both a 30-minute walk to the venue. If you don’t fancy the walk, there will be a concert bus costing £1.60 for adults and 80p for kids.
Car
There won’t be any public parking available at the stadium itself. Liverpool FC warns that due to crowds and road closures there will be long waiting times for those wanting to use the drop off and pick up point on Utting Avenue.
Drivers will be best off finding parking in the city centre and hopping on a bus from there (find all the bus info above).
