The stadium is quite well signposted from the main routes into Oxford, with brown football signs pointing the way. The stadium can be found in between the Oxford Science Park & Blackbird Leys Estate.
From the A423 Ring Road, take the A4074 towards Reading. After the roundabout with Sainsburys on one corner, take the left turning sign posted Cowley/Wallington/Oxford Science Park and you eventually come to the ground on your left.
There are 1,600 car parking spaces at the stadium itself, which are free. However, the car parks tend to fill up fast, so try and arrive early if you can (at least 75 minutes before kick off).
An additional 400 car parking spaces are now available at the Ozone cinema and bowling alley complex adjacent to the stadium, which are also free to use.
The nearest railway station is Oxford, and is over 4 miles away from the Kassam Stadium.
Bus service no. 5 runs regularly from bus stop R2 at the station, to Knights Road in Blackbird Leys, leaving only a short walk to the ground.
The service operates every 5 minutes on Saturday afternoons and about every 10 minutes on midweek evenings. Taxis are also available, but they are expensive.
