Car Parking
This is very important if you have not visited the racetrack before as there is limited space and as such the parking around the racecourse is minimal. It is recommended to use the park and ride scheme operational at Brookfield School in Kirkby. This hard standing car park is free and is well signposted from the M57 motorway [J6]. The free coach transfer transports you to the Seeds Lane entrance of the racecourse and returns at the end of racing. The free on-site coach park is for parties who have pre-booked the Tattersalls or Steeplechase car parks.
Travelling By Train
Trains One of the best ways to get to the racecourse is to take the train. The nearest mainline train station to Aintree is Liverpool Lime Street. Liverpool Central Station is just a short walk from Lime Street, where you can catch a train to Aintree. Aintree Station is directly across the road from the main entrance to the racecourse where race trains run frequently. Rail enquiries: 08457484950 Mersey travel: 0870 608 2608.
