Going to Old Trafford?
We provide the ultimate alternative for Match day travel to Old Trafford. Make your way to the stadium for all Manchester United home games without the hassle of traffic and parking. The boat takes you from opposite Aviva Studios in Manchester’s city centre (Stephenson's Bridge) to within a short walk of Old Trafford. The journey takes just half an hour, enough time to relax with a cold beer or two from our fully stocked bar before you get to the game.
Departure time is 1 hour before kick off from the other side of the river to Aviva Studios. We’re close to the train stations (Salford Central, Manchester Piccadilly) so you can leave your car at home and relax.
At the end of the match the vessel leaves from Trafford Wharf 20 minutes after the final whistle. The boat will leave promptly to make sure we arrive back to make your onward journey.
All home game fixtures can be found here: Manchester United Fixtures
