Milton Keynes is a major hub in the UK’s road network, making access by car straightforward. The city sits adjacent to the M1 motorway (junctions 13 and 14) and is crossed by the A5 (Watling Street). Follow signposts for Milton Keynes or National Bowl and use postcode MK5 8AA for precise navigation. Parking may be available near the venue (some events offer pre-bookable parking via official sites), and there are designated drop-off points. Note that traffic can be heavy on event weekends, so it’s wise to arrive early. Local park-and-ride services and official taxi drop-off zones are often provided to help ease congestion.

For public transport, Milton Keynes Central railway station is a key interchange on the West Coast Main Line. Regular trains from London (Euston), Birmingham, Manchester and other cities stop here, with an average journey from London taking about 40–50 minutes. From the station, you can take a bus or taxi to the festival site (just a few miles away). Additionally, the Milton Keynes Coachway (just off the M1 at junction 14, near Broughton) is a major coach hub. National Express coaches serve this station, linking Milton Keynes to cities across the UK as well as to London airports. Local bus routes (Stagecoach and Arriva services) connect Central Milton Keynes with surrounding districts – check the latest timetables to plan your trip to Watling Street.
