Football matches in Alkmaar
The catalog string Alkmaar puts AZ on this page. The practical-information page sets AFAS Stadion at the navigation address Stadionweg 1 in Alkmaar. On match days lots P1 to P7 are for invited guests who hold a parking card. Without that card the page names the paid lots P8 and P9 at Verlengd Zeezicht, navigation Parelweg, and lot P Solar at Toermalijnstraat 7, which needs a voucher ordered online and from which the page allows an 18-minute walk. Shuttle buses the club calls free, run by Hellingman, start two hours before kickoff from Alkmaar railway station, leaving from the loading zone behind the station, to Arcadialaan at the Motel Alkmaar stop. The return leaves from under the viaduct between AFAS Stadion and P8, back to the station. The main entrance is at the top of the escalator, entrance 7, with the AZ Fancentrum on the first floor. Entrance 5 leads to the players' door and is not open to the public. The ticket overview shows home rows located at AFAS Stadion and away rows at other grounds, including Stadion Feijenoord and the Johan Cruijff ArenA. The pinned Eredivisie revision puts AZ on Alkmaar and AFAS Stadion.

Plan a visit in the city
First read the AZ ticket page and see whether the row is a home match. Only then does it say AFAS Stadion, and only then does the Alkmaar approach apply. An away row names another ground, and on the opened list the Feyenoord against AZ row marks away registration as required. For a home match, the practical page is the instruction. Take the train to Alkmaar station, then the Hellingman shuttle from two hours before kickoff. By car, pick the address that matches the lot, Stadionweg 1 for P1 to P7, Parelweg for P8 and P9, Toermalijnstraat 7 for P Solar. The spectator entrance is entrance 7, not the players' door at entrance 5. The Fancentrum keeps fixed hours on ordinary days and, on home match days, adds the stretch from two hours before kickoff until half an hour after the final whistle, with the doors shut during the match.
What to distinguish in this travel scope
Shuttle from Alkmaar station
Before AZ home matches, the practical page runs shuttle buses it calls free, operated by Hellingman, between Alkmaar railway station and Arcadialaan at the Motel Alkmaar stop. The first departure is two hours before kickoff. The meeting point is behind the station, in the loading zone. After the match the same buses start under the viaduct between AFAS Stadion and lot P8 and return to Alkmaar station. That is the match-day route. For days without a match the page only points generally to public transport and does not print a line timetable here.

Three addresses, three lots
The navigation address for P1 to P7 is Stadionweg 1 in Alkmaar. From the A9 out of Amsterdam or Haarlem, follow the N242 toward Heerhugowaard and Ring Oost, take the Boekelermeer exit, go three quarters around the first roundabout, pass under the viaduct, and go three quarters around the next roundabout. From Heerhugowaard on the N242, take exit N9 Ring Alkmaar and then half of the roundabout. On match days P1 to P7 are for invited guests with a parking card. P8 and P9 sit at Verlengd Zeezicht, with navigation set to Parelweg. P Solar uses Toermalijnstraat 7. Its voucher is ordered online, and the page then allows an 18-minute walk to the ground. Amounts for P8 and P9 are on the page and are not repeated here.

Entrance 7 and the ticket row
The main entrance of AFAS Stadion is at the top of the escalator and is called entrance 7. Reception and the AZ Fancentrum are on the first floor. A lift beside the escalator is there for wheelchair users. Entrance 5 is the door to the dressing rooms and is not open to the public. The Fancentrum is open on Monday from 13:00 to 17:00 and Tuesday to Saturday from 10:00 to 17:00. On a home match day it adds the period from two hours before kickoff until half an hour after the final whistle, and the doors stay shut during the match. The ticket overview does not put every AZ row in Alkmaar. Visible home rows name AFAS Stadion, including the one against Hapoel Beer Sheva labeled 15 okt. Visible away rows name other grounds, including Stadion Feijenoord on the row labeled 10 okt with away registration required, and the Johan Cruijff ArenA on the row labeled 31 okt. The page still offers to load more matches.
