Please note that some of these, for example the Baths Hall and the Plowright Theatre, are very unlikely to be open on a matchday morning but the guide is handy should you want to make more of your visit to Scunthorpe than just going to watch the football, perhaps by stretching it out over a weekend.
The town centre is just under 10 minutes further on from the stadium in the car, if you take the second exit at Berkeley Circle after passing the Attis Arena.
There is a Travelodge adjacent to the stadium but should you wish to stay overnight before the game, click here for a guide to local hotels and prices.

DIRECTIONS
By car: From all Routes, M180: The ground has got be one of the easiest to find in the Football League.
It is situated on the outskirts of Scunthorpe, very close to the motorway.
Leave the M180 at Junction 3 and take the M181 and then the A1077 for Scunthorpe.
Turn right at the first roundabout onto the A18 and right again into the large car park at the ground.
For local travel and matchday news, tune into BBC Radio Humberside on 95.9FM, 1485AM, DAB Digital Radio and online via www.bbc.co.uk/humber.
By train: The station is over two miles away from the stadium. Therefore a taxi is probably the easiest way to get to the ground.
If you fancy a walk though, turn left out of the station and head towards the crossroads (facing a church) and turn right into Oswald Road, going past a set of traffic lights and the Honest Lawyer and Blue Bell pubs.
At the next traffic lights turn left into Doncaster Road (where there a number of fast food outlets).
Then just go straight down this road and you will eventually reach Glanford Park on your left.

There are regular services to Scunthorpe from a number of surrounding towns and villages, click here for more details.
By bus: Otherwise, if you're coming from the train station, as you pass the Blue Bell pub on your left, turn left onto Doncaster Road where you can catch Stagecoach Bus Numbers 1 (every 30 minutes, becomes an hourly 1a on Sundays), 35 (hourly, not on Sundays) and 90 (two-hourly, not on Sundays) down to the ground.
When on the bus, the closest stop to Glanford Park is situated at Tesco on the retail park, which will also be the bus stop used to take you back to the town centre via the same service routes.
