By
Car:
The Hawthorns is only a few hundred yards from the M5, Junction
1. Follow the A41 signs to Birmingham - the ground is on
the Birmingham Road A41. Parking is best in the side streets
a little away from the ground, although there are a few
pay car parks, including the club's own, nearer to the ground.
Look out for signs if you're happy to fork out 3 or 4 quid.
(Map to follow as soon as WBA Unofficial can organise a
non-copyright one.)
By
Train:
Inter City trains to Birmingham New Street or Moor Street
are most common, although you can go via Wolverhampton.
The easiest way to The Hawthorns from these is using the
new Metro trains (see below) which leave from Birmingham's
Snow Hill station or Wolverhampton's St George's station,
so try to get a ticket to there if you can. If not it's
a short walk in Birmingham to Snow Hill.
By
Metro:
The Metro is the quickest and easiest way from Birmingham
City Centre or Wolverhampton to the Albion. Tickets cost
up to about �3, and there are pubs to stop at on the way
(click Pubs & Food icon below). The Hawthorns has its own
Metro station called, er, The Hawthorns only a few hundred
yards from the ground. Tickets are bought on the Metro platforms.
By
Bus:
Buses M74, M78 and M79 go between Birmingham City Centre
and Wolverhampton, all passing The Hawthorns. The Metro
is quicker and easier and roughly follows the same route
but without the traffic.
