Eden Park is a multi-purpose stadium located in Auckland, New Zealand. Throughout its existence since 1900, the stadium has hosted numerous sporting events ranging from rugby union, cricket, rugby league and, even, football. Eden Park has also played host to important sporting tournaments, most recently, the Rugby World Cup in 2011. To date, Eden Park is the largest stadium in New Zealand and has a capacity of 50,000 and is composed of four main stands: The ASB Bank Stand (North Stand), East Stand, West Stand and the South Stand.

There are several ways to get to Eden Park through public transport. This may include buses, trains and even ferries depending on its availabilty. For normal circumstances, I would advise to utilise the bus and train services as both have designated routes to and from the stadium. Under special circumstances, however, like during an event held at the stadium, it would very wise to utilise the public transport services since matchday ticket allow you to utilise these services for free. Also, it provides you with direct access to and from the stadium. Just make sure to check the official Auckland transport website for more details on routes and special events transport.
