Villa Special Bus Services are operated by The Green Bus, and offer one of the best alternatives to your car on matchdays. Return journeys are priced at £5, with season tickets also available. The services run for all first team home matches and are accessible for disabled supporters. The buses drop off prior to the match next to Villa Park. Services depart 20 to 30 minutes after the final whistle. The Villa Specials are undoubtedly the easiest, stress free way to attend matches at Villa Park - why not give them a try?
There are six services that operate on matchdays. Each service has “Super Stops”, where you can pick up the service. However, you can also flag down the services from ANY recognised Bus Stop on the route that the services use. Below are the details for each service – and a route map you can download.
