Milton Keynes Dons - Stadium:MK Guide


Stadium Info
Since opening in November 2007, Stadium:MK has only been half completed with only the lower tier kitted out with seating. However, it's still able to cater for 22,000. The Main (West) Stand has a small section of the upper tier built for the directors. There are no bad seats in the house and it's a fantastic stadium for a club at this level. Saying that, competition is so strong at the moment, in capacity terms they still lag behind many of their promotion hopeful rivals.

Away Fans
Upto 3,000 visiting supporters can be accomodated and are situated in the north east corner of the stadium. The view of the action is unrestricted and leg room is very spacious. Facilities are fantastic and the concourse is inside the stadium rather than underneath meaning you can actually continue watching the game whilst buying your hotdogs or pies. A fantastic addition to a very smart stadium.

Where To Drink
The Beacon is around a five-minute walk away otherwise it’s a 20 minute walk into Bletchley where there are a few pubs to be found. The Enigma Tavern on Saxon Street being one of them. In Milton Keynes centre there are a number of bars located adjacent to the main shopping centre, or within walking distance of Milton Keynes Central station. If you come out of the station you go straight up Midsummer Boulevard in front of you, then after around five minutes walk you will find a Wetherspoons outlet called the ‘Secklow Hundred’. If you're looking for something to eat, there's a KFC and a McDonalds situated just next to the stadium.

Parking
There are approximately 2,000 car parking spaces at the stadium, which are available at a cost of £5 per vehicle. Alternatively you're able to park in the Denbigh West industrial estate.

By Train
Milton Keynes Central is the main railway station and the most likely one that you'll arrive at. It is however, approximately four miles away from the stadium and therefore a taxi ride from the rank directly outside the train station is a very likely bet.

The nearest railway station station to MK Dons' Stadium:MK is Bletchley. From here you're approximately 30 minutes walk away so I'd advise to jump into one of the waiting taxi's at the rank outside. Alternatively, you can walk into the town centre and hop onto one of the buses at the main bus station.
