We look forward to welcoming you to Ashton Gate!
⚠️ CLEAN AIR ZONE
Bristol’s Clean Air Zone (CAZ) is now live and concert-goers driving by car are encouraged to check whether they will be affected. Non-compliant vehicles will be charged between £9 and £100 per day to drive through the zone in central Bristol.
Although Ashton Gate itself sits just outside of the zone, some roads near the stadium are within it and thus we encourage fans to carefully plan their journey. Full details on the CAZ including maps, a schedule of charges and a vehicle compliance checker can be found at www.cleanairforbristol.org/caz/.
🚧 ROAD CLOSURE INFORMATION
Ashton Road will be closed from 3pm-2am on May 29th.
Winterstoke Road will be closed from 9pm until midnight on May 29th.

Concert-goers are urged to take advantage of event special Shuttle Buses laid on for Arctic Monkeys at Ashton Gate Stadium.
With road closures, temporary parking suspensions and Resident Parking Schemes in place on the day of the concert, there will be no parking near the stadium.
