For many football supporters around the world, visiting Anfield Stadium is a dream trip. Home of Liverpool F.C., Anfield regularly welcomes fans from Europe, Asia, the United States, and beyond.
Planning your travel properly can make your match day experience far smoother and more enjoyable. Here’s a simple guide for international fans visiting Liverpool for a Liverpool FC match.
Flying to Liverpool for the Match
Most international supporters arrive via Manchester Airport, which is the largest airport in Northern England and offers the most international flights.
From Manchester Airport, Liverpool is around 45–60 minutes by car.
Some European fans also fly directly into Liverpool John Lennon Airport, which is about 20 minutes from the city centre.
Where to Stay in Liverpool
Most visiting supporters stay in Liverpool city centre, where there are plenty of hotels, restaurants, and bars.
Staying in the city centre allows you to explore areas such as:
- Royal Albert Dock
- Liverpool ONE
- The famous football pubs around the city
From the city centre, Anfield is only around 10–15 minutes by car.
Getting to Anfield on Match Day
On match days more than 60,000 fans travel to Anfield, so planning transport in advance is important.
Common ways fans travel to the stadium include:
- Walking from the city centre (around 40 minutes)
- Using match-day bus services
- Booking a taxi or private transfer
Many international visitors choose pre-booked transport so they can arrive at the stadium without worrying about busy buses or unfamiliar routes.
Enjoying the Match Day Atmosphere
One of the best parts of visiting Liverpool for a match is the atmosphere around the stadium before kick-off.
Supporters gather around pubs, fan zones, and food stalls near Anfield hours before the game begins.
Singing, scarves, and football chants fill the streets as fans make their way toward the stadium.
Even for fans who have watched Liverpool for years on television, experiencing Anfield in person is unforgettable.
Getting Back After the Match
Leaving Anfield can be challenging because thousands of supporters leave the stadium at the same time.
Roads around the stadium become very busy and public transport queues can be long.
Many visitors choose to pre-book a return transfer, allowing them to travel back to their hotel or airport comfortably once the match finishes.
