The Leeds United Park and Ride service will continue for the 2024/25 campaign and is available once more with our Sky Bet Championship opening clash against Portsmouth FC this weekend.
The service being provided by the partnership between the club and Hunters is not only assisting our fans in the community, but the whole environment.
Please be aware that tickets CAN NOT be purchased on the day, you must book in advance using the link below. Tickets can be purchased for all home matches, three weeks in advance of the fixture.

A further advantage of the service is that it is reducing the lengthy car queues and parking issues around the ground, meaning you can arrive at Elland Road in a relaxed manner and get back to your car after the game in a quicker time.
Sites are operated at Temple Green and Stourton with the service starting two-and-a-half hours before kick-off.
Key information
The Park & Ride Scheme is in partnership with Hunters Coaches who are operating the service.
The club will sell the Park and Ride tickets online on behalf of Hunters Coaches.
Tickets must be purchased in advance and are priced at £7 per person or £21.50 per car (based on four people sharing).

Driving for change: What can sport do to help?
It is estimated that the global football industry produces more than 30 million tonnes of carbon dioxide every year, which is about the same size as the total emissions of Denmark.
A quick glance at the above numbers shows the massive difference in the impact of sports at a grassroots and global level.
While the sport industry in general is working towards improvement in the green transition, some organisations are now progressively trying to reconstruct their business model to be more sustainable. Leeds United and Hunters coaches are working together in this approach.
The Park & Ride service is reducing over 150 cars travelling to the ground each match, which is a significant reduction in the carbon footprint.
Replacing car journeys with public transport can help reduce CO2 emissions by 42% if using the bus.
Further information
To further improve this service, official Leeds United club stewards will be present at both Park & Ride sites and will be checking supporters onto the buses. Each passenger will be given a wristband by Hunters Coaches staff before departing to Elland Road. On the return journey, passengers must show their wrist band in order to board the bus back to the Park & Ride sites. Any supporters without a wristband will not be able to travel on this service.
All supporters are advised to have access to their Leeds United Park & Ride booking confirmation email on matchday.
