Magpies Go Smarter

02/10/2023

Travel information update for fans travelling to the match at St James' Park on Wednesday.
Please be aware that the Matchday Park and Ride service from the MetroCentre will not be operating due to the strike action.

🏐 If you are travelling into the city for the Champions League football match at St. James’ Park, please be aware of limited public transport due to strike action by Go North East buses and train operators. Metro will be extremely busy.

📣 We’ve extended the times of our car parks to help cope with the additional expected traffic. Please plan ahead and allow more time for your journey.

Did you know that if you’re a season ticket holder you can now buy your Magpie Mover ticket?

The Magpie Mover lets you travel to and from home game matches from a little over £1.30 per game.

It costs £25 for the season and provides great value for money on public transport, with a significant discount compared to day tickets or single / return fares.

You can use your Magpie Mover from anywhere in Tyne and Wear from up to three hours before the game and until the close of service from any departure point within Newcastle city centre after the match.

You can use it on most buses, Metro, train and Shields ferry services when traveling to and from first team, league and cup home games. Please note that it is not valid for pre-season friendlies.

If you’ve already got your 22/23 season ticket you can sign in to the NUFC website to buy your Magpie Mover ticket, which will be sent to you by post.

If you're heading to St James' Park on Sunday remember you can travel free on buses and Metro within Tyne and Wear with your season ticket 3 hours before and after the game.
You can also hop on the Match Day Park and Ride bus from the MetroCentre.
If you do need to drive be aware that there are roadworks, including temporary traffic signals and lane closures in both directions on St James' Boulevard between the Gallowgate and Westgate Road junctions. This may cause delays so please allow extra time for your journey if you do need to take the car.

Just a quick update for those of you planning to go along to this season's home games at St James' Park.

The match day park and ride buses will be operating from the MetroCentre for home games from the start of the new season.

We are going to be launching the Magpie Mover tickets again but this is unlikely to be in time for the first home game. However, season ticket holders can travel within Tyne and Wear on local bus and Metro services, three hours before and after the match, free of charge for the first home game on August 15.

We’ll update you when Magpie Mover tickets are available and can confirm that there will be no increase in price for the tickets this season.

Please feel free to share this post with anyone who might be interested - and fingers crossed for a good result on Sunday!

Don't get caught up in match-day traffic. If you're heading to the home games at St James' Park next week why not leave the car at home and use public transport instead.
And if you've got a Magpie Mover ticket you'll be saving money too. It's a win-win! 👍⚽🚌🚇
