Matchday bus routes confirmed for new season

Figure image
Leicester Tigers matchday bus services, in conjunction with Arriva, will run on five routes for all home games in the new season, including the fixture against Ulster Rugby on Saturday, August 31.

The T1-T5 services, running from Market Harborough, Oakham, Nuneaton, Market Bosworth and Coalville, are scheduled to arrive at Welford Road 30 minutes before kick-off and depart 30 minutes after the final whistle.

Pick-up and drop-off times are adjusted for any change to kick-off and the services will run for the Sunday kick-off against Worcester Warriors in Round 1 of the Aviva Premiership Rugby season, for the Friday kick-off against Treviso in the Heineken Cup opener and all other home games.

Arrival at the stadium for the opening league game against Worcester will be one hour ahead of kick-off to allow supporters to sample the activities at Tigers In The Park ahead of the game.

Return tickets on all services are £6 adults, £5 concessions and juniors, wherever you join.
Pre-book at the Arriva Travel Shop at St Margaret's Bus Station by phoning 0116 242 3670 or email [email protected], or turn up and pay on the day.
