TRANSPORT INFORMATION

  • Footy fans are encouraged to consider all available travel options ahead of time as public transport continues to operate at CovidSafe capacities to maintain physical distancing across the network.
  • It’ll be busy at Sydney Olympic Park on Good Friday with large Sydney Royal Easter Show crowds so plan ahead.
  • Drive with your group and take advantage of the discounted parking rate of $20 when you pre-book online available until 11:59pm the night before the game. Parking on the day will be at a higher fee and is likely to fill early.
  • If you haven’t pre-booked parking at Olympic Park consider parking at a station commuter car park and continuing your trip to Olympic Park by train.
  • Traffic will be heavier than usual on roads approaching the precinct so plan to get there early. You can find real-time updates on traffic conditions at livetraffic.com.
  • If you’re planning to catch public transport allow plenty of extra travel time and plan ahead. Express trains and Major Event Buses will run to Sydney Olympic Park from Central and key western line stations.
  • Remember you’ll need to tap on and off services using an Opal card or contactless payment as travel is not included in your ticket to the game. Register your details via the Opal website or app ahead of time.
  • Look for the ‘green dots’ on-board services to find the safest places to sit or stand and check real-time capacity indicators where available as you may need to wait for the next service with available capacity.
  • Additional measures and staff will be in place around Sydney Olympic Park to safely manage crowds arriving and leaving the game so please be patient, practise physical distancing while in queues and follow the directions of staff on site.
