Getting Here

Look just use Google Maps.

By rail/walking from the station

I don’t need to tell you how to buy train tickets do I? Just go to wherever you buy tickets - Northern, LNER, TransPennine, Trainline, I don’t get paid enough to care. Book your train for York as the destination.

When you get here, exit through the short-stay car park by platform 4 and continue heading North - you will cross Scarborough rail bridge. Turn left at the end of the bridge (you’ll need to go down some steps) and walk along the river heading away from town. Eventually you’ll come to Clifton Bridge. Walk up the road and you’ll see the YHA opposite you.

By bus

The closest bus stop is Clifton Green, served by the 2, 2A, 28, 29, 30X, 31X, 74, 80, 825, 875 and M31. So yeah, there’s a lot of buses here, it’s on a main road.

By taxi

Tell them to take you to YHA York. Postcode is YO30 6LP.

By car

We have around 30 spaces available at the venue, but these will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. Please let us know in advance if you require one of the limited accessible parking spots.

We advise if you wish to stay overnight and want somewhere to leave you car, you can actually do this at the University of York - it's free from 6pm on Friday onwards. You can then get a bus or taxi into the centre. For some reason the park & rides don't let you do this, which is frankly bizarre, I know. Regardless, the closest one is Rawcliffe Bar, which makes the most sense if you aren't staying the night - the last bus is at around 22:30.

The nearest public car park to the venue is probably Marygate, which is £25 for all-day parking, or there’s also Carlisle Street which is £6 but much smaller.
