History Stadium
After 105 years at our Wilderspool home, Warrington Wolves began a new era in 2004
by moving across town to the AJ12m Halliwell Jones stadium where their first game
attracted a capacity crowd of 14,200, the biggest attendance for a home match in 31 years.
Constructed on the site of the old Tetley Walker Brewery on Winwick Road in
Warrington, the stadium provides a state of the art sporting venue, exceptional
conferencing and banequetting facilities and is a focal point for community activity,
incorporating the Warrington Wolves Foundation learning floor and a brand new NHS walk-in
centre.
The Halliwell Jones Stadium sports a capacity of 14,206 through an innovative mix
of seated and traditional terraced spectactor accomodation. The stadium comprises standing
and seating on each side and end, offering supporters unrivaled flexibility. With a pitch
size of 120m x 74m, it is designed for expansive and exciting rugby league.
Through our hopsitality partner, Heathcotes, we are able to offer 14 suites, rooms
and executive boxes boasting natural daylight and spectacular pitch views. Each room lends
itself to any event large or small from launches through to weddings and private events,
seminars, conferences and exhibitions, enabling us to cater from 2 '500 guests. |

How to get there
A green travel plan has been produced for fans and visitors to the brand new
Halliwell Jones Stadium. The aim of the plan is to encourage as many people as possible to
use alternative transport modes, rather than the car, to reach the new Stadium. This will
help alleviate congestion around the stadium improving the match day experience for the
fans and local residents alike.
In order to achieve this aim the travel plan will consist of the following schemes:
Travel by Cars

Exit the M62 at Junction 9 and head south towards Warrington along the A49. After
1.5 miles, go straight on through the lights with McDonalds on the right. Proceed past the
Tesco Superstore and The Halliwell Jones Stadium before turning right at next set of
traffic lights. At the traffic circle take the first exit on to Winwick Street and you
will see the entrance to the NCP Car Park 50 yards further on, on the right.

option to use the parking barriers. The car park will be stewarded on matchdays. We
strongly advise all rugby fans not to use the Tesco car park on matchdays as you will be
charged.
Controlled Parking Zone
In conjunction with Warrington Wolves, Warrington Borough Council will introduce a
controlled parking zone. This will ensure that match day parking does not inconvenience
residents or cause road safety problems. Controlled zones will be clearly marked and fines
will be imposed for illegal parking.
Park & Walk Scheme
There are numerous car parks both private and public that are within easy walking
distance of the Stadium. The usual charges will apply for public car parks, the parking
charge for the private car parks will be at the owners discretion. The car parks are
