Pre-agreed meeting point (match days)

Sir Matt Busby Way is closed and the area around the stadium is pedestrianised on match days.

Your driver will WhatsApp the exact location 30 minutes before.

Manchester United Megastore

For non-match-day pickups, drivers collect directly outside the Old Trafford Megastore on Sir Matt Busby Way. Visitor stadium tours, museum, and corporate events all serve from this point.

Old Trafford Metrolink Station

For meet & greet from public transport arrivals, drivers wait at the Metrolink station exit (Wharfside line, two stops from Manchester city centre).

Hotel pickups

Hotel Football (overlooking the stadium), Holiday Inn Manchester West, Premier Inn Manchester Trafford, plus all Manchester city centre and MediaCityUK hotels.

About Old Trafford (Manchester United)

Old Trafford is Manchester United's iconic home — 74,310 seats, the largest club football stadium in the UK. Often called 'the Theatre of Dreams', Old Trafford has hosted Premier League, FA Cup, Champions League, Europa League and England international fixtures since 1910. The stadium is in Trafford, south-west of Manchester city centre, with strong but heavily-loaded public transport links via the Metrolink Wharfside line. Post-match transport demand in Manchester is intense — Metrolink trams run at capacity for 90+ minutes after full-time, and Uber surge multipliers of 2x-3x are routine.

Old Trafford Taxi FAQ

How do I get a taxi from Old Trafford after a Manchester United match?
Pre-book it before kickoff. Sir Matt Busby Way is closed and the stadium area pedestrianised — black cabs can't enter, Uber drivers can't find you in the 70,000-strong crowd, and the Metrolink queue regularly exceeds an hour. Pre-booked drivers wait at a pre-agreed quiet point clear of the crowd, with exact location WhatsApp'd 30 minutes before. Fixed fare — no surge regardless of full-time chaos.
How much is a taxi from Old Trafford to Manchester Airport?
Fixed £35 in a Mercedes saloon for up to 4 passengers, 9 miles, 20-35 min. Particularly common for European Champions League fans flying out late on match nights. MPV for 5-6 passengers: £50. Last train from Manchester Piccadilly to the airport runs around 22:00 weekdays — for evening kickoffs (19:45 or 20:00), pre-booked taxi is often the only option for catching a late flight.
How much is a taxi from Old Trafford to Manchester city centre?
Fixed £18 in a Mercedes saloon, 3 miles, 10-25 min. Stadium-to-city transfers are our highest-volume Old Trafford route. Service includes pickup from your pre-agreed meeting point and drop at any city centre address (hotels, Piccadilly Station, Spinningfields, Deansgate).
Can I pre-book a taxi for a Champions League match at Old Trafford?
Yes — Champions League nights are our busiest sustained period. Significant international travel for the visiting team's fans plus premium UK demand from London/Birmingham/Leeds visitors. Book at least 7 days in advance for guaranteed availability.
How much is a taxi from London to Old Trafford?
Fixed £320 in a Mercedes saloon for the 200-mile journey, 3hr 30min - 4 hours via the M1/M6. Most London-based fans use Avanti West Coast trains from Euston to Manchester Piccadilly (2h 10m) plus taxi from Piccadilly to Old Trafford (£20). For groups of 4+ travelling together, door-to-door private hire is competitive on total cost.
Is there a wheelchair-accessible taxi at Old Trafford?
Yes — Mercedes V-Class MPV with ramp access. Old Trafford is fully accessible with dedicated supporter areas. Book at least 4 hours in advance.
Can I take 8 people in a minibus from Old Trafford?
Yes — 8-seater minibus £35 to Manchester Airport, £25 to Manchester city centre, £180 to Liverpool. Particularly useful for stag parties, corporate groups, and family trips.
Are Uber and Bolt available at Old Trafford on match days?
Yes — but surge pricing is extreme. Post-match surge multipliers of 2x-3x are standard. Drivers struggle to find passengers in the 70,000-strong crowd and frequently cancel. Pre-booked private hire eliminates both problems.
Can I book a taxi from Old Trafford to Anfield?
Yes — Manchester-Liverpool football fan travel is a regular route. Mercedes saloon £100, 35 miles, 60-80 min via M62. MPV for 5-6 fans: £125.
