Kassam Stadium Event-Day Parking on Grenoble Road
Oxford United says the venue has unreserved parking for around 2,000 cars at each game, with spaces free of charge and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis (OUFC). This is the main event-day option at Grenoble Road, Littlemore, Oxford, OX4 4XP, so arriving early is more practical than relying on a reserved bay.
Away supporters should follow the club’s matchday directions for the relevant approach (OUFC). The published guidance identifies parking as unreserved rather than pre-booked, so drivers should treat the car park as an arrival-based facility rather than a guaranteed space.
Event-Day Parking Controls Around the Kassam
Parking restrictions at the venue have been criticised by supporters as unclear and unfair (BBC). Drivers attending a match or show should therefore read the signs at the entrance and around the surrounding roads before leaving the vehicle, especially where event-day controls affect ordinary parking arrangements.
The club’s guidance distinguishes away supporters within its travel advice (OUFC), while the BBC has reported criticism of the venue’s new parking restrictions (BBC).

Rail and Walking Access to the Kassam
The address is Grenoble Road, Littlemore, Oxford, OX4 4XP. Drivers choosing to leave the car outside the immediate event area should allow for the walk between the parking space and the turnstiles, using the listed distances as a guide: the Parksy choices range from 0.4 miles to 1.1 miles.
The venue’s published travel guidance covers getting to the ground and includes directions for away supporters (OUFC). It does not provide a station walking time in the supplied venue guidance, so rail users should use the onward route information for the specific fixture and approach rather than assume a station is beside the ground.
