Football matches in Manchester ( Trafford )

Manchester United is the only club. The catalog string is exactly Manchester ( Trafford ). The getting-here page describes Old Trafford, not the Etihad Campus. On a match day the postcode is M16 0RA, and on other days it is M17 1FP. Car parks E1 and E2 are reached on a match day only via Wharfside Way. Anyone trying to come in by Chester Road is sent around the traffic system. Off a match day only car park E2 is open, from Wharfside Way West. The Old Trafford Metrolink stop is a five-minute walk and is accessible for wheelchair users. On the Trafford Park line, Imperial War Museum and Wharfside are also a short walk. Cycle racks are at N2 by the Sir Alex Ferguson Stand, at E2 by the East Stand and at W2 by the West Stand. From the airport the page allows about 20 to 30 minutes by taxi, and from Piccadilly about 15 minutes, both to postcode M16 0RA. The ticketing FAQ sends match tickets only to tickets.manutd.com.

Plan a visit in the city

First settle Manchester United, the date, and Old Trafford. The string Manchester ( Trafford ) is not the catalog city on Ashton New Rd. For bus, rail and tram the club links to tfgm.com/public-transport. On a match day use the Wharfside Way approach and postcode M16 0RA. Anyone who only needs the stop should use Old Trafford, or Wharfside on the Trafford Park line. Lock bicycles only in the racks named at N2, E2 and W2, with your own lock. Match tickets go only through tickets.manutd.com, not through other websites. Season tickets are listed by the club at manutd.com/seasontickets. Accessible seats go through the accessibility help page, and also accessibility@manutd.co.uk. The route note does not replace the ticket.

What to distinguish in this travel scope

Manchester United under Manchester ( Trafford )

The Wikipedia revision of the 2026/27 Premier League lists Manchester United with the city string Manchester ( Trafford ) and the name Old Trafford. This page keeps that string, including the spaces, and does not take in the Bradford row. The postcode, Wharfside Way and the Old Trafford stop are on the club page Getting Here, not in the table.

Wharfside Way, Old Trafford and the Trafford Park line

Getting Here uses postcode M16 0RA on a match day and M17 1FP otherwise. E1 and E2 are open on a match day only via Wharfside Way. Drivers who try to enter via Chester Road are sent around the traffic system. Off a match day, E2 remains, entered from Wharfside Way West. The Old Trafford Metrolink station is five minutes away and can be used with a wheelchair. Imperial War Museum and Wharfside on the Trafford Park line are a short walk. Cycle racks are at N2 by the Sir Alex Ferguson Stand, at E2 by the East Stand and at W2 by the West Stand. The page allows 20 to 30 minutes by taxi from the airport and about 15 minutes from Piccadilly.

Match tickets only at tickets.manutd.com

Manchester United's ticketing FAQ sends men's and women's games to tickets.manutd.com and says not to buy match tickets anywhere else. Season tickets, including men's, women's and seasonal hospitality, are at manutd.com/seasontickets. Accessible seats are explained on the accessibility help page, and further help goes through accessibility@manutd.co.uk. The FAQ names no single home match, no turnstile and no clock time. The match day at Old Trafford therefore stays on the getting-here page, and the ticket stays a separate step.
