Car Parking
The ground is located to the north of Bristol City Centre, conveniently situated a short distance from the M32 with easy access to the M4 and M5.
Bristol Clean Air Zone
The Government set legal limits for pollution within cities and has introduced a Clean Air Zone to ensure Bristol meets those limits within the shortest possible time. Bristol's Clean Air zone is now live and you must now pay to drive within the zone if your vehicle does not meet the zone's emission standards, unless you have an exemption.
The Bristol County Ground is placed outside of the Clean Air Zone but depending on your route to the ground, you might need to drive through the zone to reach us. Therefore you should plan your journey and check the Bristol City Council website to see if your car is liable to pay the charge.
FOOD & DRINK
Food & drink options will be confirmed closer to the start of the competition.
