Supertram will run Trams every 6 minutes from Sheffield City Centre to Hillsborough Park – it is then a 2-minute walk to the festival.
Please note; the Hillsborough Park and Hillsborough Corner stops will be closed after the show, you will have access to the Leppings Lane stop from within the park after the headliners have finished.
The tram gate is at the back of the main stage arena. The majority of attendees will be leaving on foot and trams are likely to be delayed until the roads are cleared of pedestrians. We appreciate your patience whilst we manage this process.
