Wales - Host Nation for The 2010 Ryder Cup

Dependent on the all inclusive package you have chosen for The 2010 Ryder Cup there will be two distinct types of transport that will take you to Celtic Manor for The 2010 Ryder Cup event.

Getting to and from The 2010 Ryder Cup

The Park and Ride operation at The 2010 Ryder Cup at The Celtic Manor Resort, City of Newport, on September 28-October 3 is designed to enable spectators to arrive and depart for the match between Europe and the United States safely and smoothly.

There are two Park and Ride sites in place for The Celtic Manor Resort. One is situated at Tredegar House (West Park and Ride) reached by exiting at Junction 30 of the M4 and the other at Llanwern (East Park and Ride) reached by exiting at Junction 23A of the M4. Spectators planning to attend the match must purchase a valid car park pass for their vehicle in advance of each day of attendance to gain access to the Park and Ride sites. Journey time from each Park and Ride site is estimated to be 20 minutes.

All spectators travelling by car or coach must use the dedicated Park and Ride sites. Spectators are being encouraged to car share with the price of a “Transportation Pass” being charged per vehicle not per person at £20 per day which includes the shuttle service between the Park and Ride locations and The Celtic Manor Resort.

For safety and security reasons there will be no access to The Celtic Manor Resort for private vehicles, taxis or pedestrians during the period of the match. There will be preferred taxi drop-off and collection points at the West Park and Ride site (Tredegar House) and there will be no fee for taxis entering the car park. Those arriving by taxi can access the complimentary shuttle service once they have had their tickets authorised. Checks of photo ID tickets and security searches will be undertaken at all entry areas.

The shuttle service should be used by everyone arriving at or returning to the Park and Ride sites. There will be no other form of transportation to access The Celtic Manor Resort. Buses will run from Tuesday – Sunday of event week and from 6am until 9.30pm.

For those using the train, there is a bus shuttle service from Newport Station to the VIP Bus Terminal at The Celtic Manor Resort. Checks of photo ID tickets and security searches will take place at the resort at the VIP Bus Terminal. The cost of the shuttle service is £10 return and is only available to those travelling by train.

Ground Transportation

Clients who choose a Ground Transportation package option will be collected from their designated hotel and taken to Celtic Manor for The 2010 Ryder Cup. To return to your hotel, you will need to make your way back to the designated pick up point and take the next available coach which will return you to your hotel. Timetables will be available closer to the time for the Ground Transportation service.
