Travelling by Foot
Etihad Campus is walkable from Manchester city centre, and on average it takes around 35 minutes to get to the stadium.
The walking route is well-lit and signposted to ensure it’s as easy as possible for fans to make their way to the ground.
Fans wishing to visit the popular area of Ancoats before the match for food and drink can walk to the ground in less than 30 minutes. Meanwhile, those who are shopping in Manchester Arndale can walk to the ground in less than 45 minutes.
Citylink Walking Route
The Citylink walking route connects Manchester Piccadilly Station to the Etihad Stadium, through the bustling areas of Ancoats, New Islington, and Holt Town.
The designated walking route is designed to create a vibrant pre-match experience with interactive lighting installations, live music from local talent, face painters, and playmakers with selfies frames and QR codes to encourage fans to take selfies and submit on Cityzens platform for the monthly and end of season ‘Walk to the Match’ selfie competitions.
The competitions, which will commence in September at the Manchester United fixture and run until the end of the season, are open to all Cityzens and each entry will be considered for a prize.
More information on competitions coming soon.
