About this venue
Craven Park is a compact, high-energy stadium in Hull that’s long been associated with big match nights and crowd-pulling events. As the home of Hull Kingston Rovers, it’s known for stands that sit close to the action and a tight, enclosed feel that amplifies the atmosphere. With a capacity of around 12,225 seats, it delivers the kind of intensity you can feel from the first whistle to the final moment.
Inside, visitors value the clear sightlines and the roar that carries through the ground—whether it’s rugby league or a major live show, the experience stays more personal than at oversized arenas. Practical on-site facilities (food and drink kiosks, family and away sections, a club shop, and hospitality options) make it easy to settle in and enjoy the day.
The exact address is Poorhouse Ln, Hull, United Kingdom (you may also see it signposted or mapped as Phil Lowe Way). Entry points are well-marked around the stadium footprint; if you’re arriving by car, expect limited space right by the ground and plan to arrive early, following steward directions and any event-day traffic management.

About the city
Hull, a lively port city where the River Hull meets the Humber Estuary, is increasingly seen as a destination where music, sport, and nightlife naturally blend into one urban experience. The city has a relaxed Northern England energy, yet enough variety to turn a trip for tickets into a short city break. Whether you’re arriving for a major concert, an intense sporting fixture, or an indoor show, Hull offers a strong balance between venue atmosphere and an easy, comfortable stay.
Convenience is one of the biggest advantages: the key arrival point is Hull Paragon Interchange, the city’s hub for rail, bus, and coach services, making it simple to connect towards the main arenas and stadiums. For getting around the city and nearby areas, you’ll rely on Stagecoach East Midlands and East Yorkshire bus routes, while longer-distance and intercity travel is further supported by National Express coach departures. If you’re flying in, Humberside Airport is a common regional option, and onward travel into the city centre remains straightforward thanks to well-planned local infrastructure.
Before or after the event, Hull is best explored on foot: wander through the cobbled Old Town with its historic façades, head down to Hull Marina and the waterfront promenades, and catch the light over the Humber Estuary. For an extra highlight, many choose The Deep as a signature attraction, while trips towards the Humber Bridge deliver that memorable “wow” moment that neatly rounds off the journey. It’s an easy way to turn an event visit into a complete, relaxed, and rewarding break.
