Away days: Hull City
As the Swans get set to face Hull City on Saturday (5.30pm), we bring you a fan's guide to the KCOM Stadium to improve your match day experience.
Hull City v Swansea City
Saturday, December 22 (5.30pm)
Address: KCOM Stadium, The Circle, Walton Street, Hull, HU3 6HU
Distance from the Liberty: 273.6 miles
SEAT ALLOCATION
Away fans are housed in the North-East corner of the stadium, where you can enjoy good facilities and a great view of the action. Food on offer includes burgers and Holland’s pies, while you can enter the stadium via the electronic turnstiles.
PARKING
There is a huge car park just outside the stadium, where it costs £5 to leave your vehicle, but be prepared for a lengthy wait to exit after the game. Alternatively, there is a park-and-ride facility signposted off the A63, while there are many town centre car parks that are within walking distance of the stadium. These include the Hull Royal Infirmary hospital and Pryme Street multi-storey – both of which are recommended – as is the housing estate directly opposite the hospital, where there is plenty of free street parking available.
BY TRAIN
From Swansea, the journey to Hull Paragon Railway Station takes just under seven hours on average. The stadium is one-and-a-half miles from there and will take around 20 minutes to walk to.
Trains leave Swansea at 8.54am, 9.29am, 9.33am and 9.54am. However, there are no return journeys after the game, so an overnight stay will be required.
