Getting to Celtic Park
Celtic Park is in Parkhead, in the east end. The train is the easy way in and out; driving on a matchday is slow. Checked on Celtic FC, ScotRail and SPT pages on 21 Oct 2026.
The short version
- Train from Central or Argyle Street to Dalmarnock or Bridgeton: within half a mile of the stadium.
- Train from Queen Street to Bellgrove: about a mile.
- No Subway out here. It doesn't serve the east end.
- Address: Celtic Park, Glasgow G40 3RE.
- Check Celtic's matchday travel updates and ScotRail before you set off.
By train
- Celtic FC: trains from Glasgow Central or Argyle Street to Dalmarnock and Bridgeton take you to within half a mile of the stadium; trains from Queen Street to Bellgrove put you about a mile away.
- ScotRail's sport-events advice names Dalmarnock (for Central, Motherwell and Lanark) and Bellgrove (for Queen Street, Airdrie, Cumbernauld and Edinburgh) as the nearest stations for Celtic home matches.
- After the game at Dalmarnock ScotRail runs two queues: for the city centre, join the queue on Swanston Street; for Motherwell or Lanark, use the queue at the front of the station.
- ScotRail's tips: buy your ticket before you board (checks are in place), check times, and don't leave it too late, because you might not get on your first-choice train.
By bus
- Celtic FC: from the city centre, the 2, 61, 64, 255 and 240 stop at the Forge Shopping Centre on the Gallowgate, about a mile from the stadium. Check times with First Bus or Traveline Scotland.
On foot or by bike
- Celtic FC says the city centre and both Central and Queen Street are less than a 45-minute walk away.
- It's about a 10-minute bike ride. Racks at the Billy McNeill statue (8 spaces) and the Superstore (5 spaces). The club mentions Voi bike-hire parking zones on the Gallowgate, Springfield Road and at Springfield Road/London Road.
Driving and parking
- Limited parking in the Lisbon Lions 1 Car Park, entered from Janefield Street off Springfield Road: £8 per vehicle, card only, first come, first served. Blue Badge holders: see the club's accessible parking page.
- Arrive early: the club warns traffic near the ground gets very congested close to kick-off.
From Glasgow Airport
- Celtic FC: about 12 miles away. Take the 500 Airport Express from stance 1 into the city centre, then a train or bus.
Matchday crowds and rail works, every Thursday
Free at 7am every Thursday: what's on for the next 10 days, an honest forecast, a Rain Plan and a Dry Plan, and how to get home.
If it's raining before kick-off
The east end isn't packed with indoor options. If you're early, kill time in the centre first: GoMA is free and a short walk from Argyle Street station. More in the rainy-day guide.
