Getting to TIO Traeger Park
Buses
With a oval capacity of an estimated 10,000 people, parking spaces are extremely limited surround TIO Traeger Park, however, due to its location within Alice Springs there are two public buses that travel along Gap Road stopping at the oval, when catching public transport to the venue be sure to search the timetable for buses 300 and 301 as these are the correct buses for the oval.
Rideshare
If you are not a huge fan of catching a bus in the middle of one of the hottest parts of Australia, catching a rideshare such as Uber is an excellent option, however as this is not a main AFL venue and does have limited space to manouver around the oval it is a good idea to choose a pick up and drop off point a couple of streets back to avoid congestion.
Getting Tickets
For major events it is highly recommended to pre-book tickets to ensure you don’t miss out at the gate, due to the limited capacity of the oval tickets cannot be guaranteed for everybody, tickets can be accessed from Ticketmaster.
