Apologies if this thread is re-hashed every single cup game but it'll be the first time I'm driving through to Hampden on Sat instead of catching a bus. Any tips for parking near South Stand? Heard there's a few car parks nearby for a 5er?

Nae used to this 12.15pm kick off either, do you think leaving Edinburgh at 10am is plenty time with no stop off en route?

Cheers and GGTTH! :flag:

It's up near crowfoot bowling club

Watch out for signs on lampposts, saying permit required during events at Hampden, seen a lot of tickets on cars after final !

Head for the Kings Park area, you should have no problem finding a space in the surrounding streets. A fifteen minute stroll to the stadium from there.

Aye, me included. Lesson learned, thought that was way too easy.

I usually aim for Dixon Road, always managed to get parked there. It's on-street parking and if there are not any spaces one of the other adjacent streets will be fine. About ten minutes walk from hampden and you pass the street that cathkin park is on if you fancy popping in there as well.
