[John Bowden](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/104393437236640125189/reviews) ★★★★★

Had a great time at the Velodrome. Never been before. Rode all the way by bicycle from Warrington. I was given a lovely warm welcome. Had my lunch actually within the track itself. Fully accessible everywhere. Coffee and a pastry is only a fiver, so bonus. Check out what's happening online and visit, well worth a look. Best wishes.

Great views from all around the arena, making it easy to enjoy the action wherever you’re seated. Parking can be a bit tight—especially for larger cars—but still manageable. Overall, it’s a great experience. We visited on a Saturday around midday, and the venue was busy, with lots of cyclists and two full netball teams using the velodrome. However, most of the toilets seemed to be locked, which was a bit confusing. That said, we had a great time on our visit to the velodrome and are already looking forward to our next visit

Great views all round the arena, parking is a bit tricky unless you can get on one of the bigger car parks but a great experience and a lot cheaper than football or rugby. Food and beverages available at a fair price.
