Getting to the Action

GIO Stadium is located in Bruce, just a short trip from our front door. To make your night stress-free, we recommend taking the R2, R3 or R4 Rapid bus from the City Interchange, which is only a 200m walk from the hotel. These routes run frequently and drop you within walking distance of the stadium. On major event days, Transport Canberra often runs dedicated event shuttles directly to the gates, so be sure to check the latest schedules closer to the event. If you prefer to drive, public parking is available at the stadium for a $10 fee, with “early bird” discounts often available for those who arrive more than 45 minutes before the show starts. Find more information on parking and stadium access here on the GIO Stadium website.
