By bus or tram · After the match
Back to the «Naberezhnaya Veteranov» stop along Solnechny Boulevard or the Paradnaya embankment: the club's map marks both as walking routes. If you are in no hurry, let the first wave of fans go. After late matches the city usually runs transport longer: extra buses have left from the «Solnechny Bulvar» stop and trams from «Rybnaya Derevnya». The times are in the club's notice before the match.

Free car parks P1, P2 and P3 are by the stadium; spaces are not guaranteed. The VIP car park inside the grounds is paid.

- Open the QR code in the «Gosuslugi Fan Card» app and hold it to the reader.
- After the match the car must leave the car park within 1 h 30 min of the final whistle, or getting it back may take a while.
