History and description
The Reebok Stadium opened on the 1st of September 1997 with a league match between Bolton and Everton (0-0). Everton had also been the first league opponent at Bolton’s previous home, Burnden Park.
The Reebok Stadium is particularly known for its characteristic roof structure. It was named after long-time club sponsor Reebok.
Getting there
The Reebok Stadium is located outside the town of Bolton in Middlebrook, at an out-of-town complex of retail, leisure, and office parks. The distance to Bolton’s city centre is about 5 miles.
The complex is situated practically adjacent to the M61 motorway, which makes it easy to reach by car. Leave the M61 at junction 6. The stadium will be visible from the motorway.
Horwich Parkway railway station lies just 200 metres from the Reebok Stadium. Direct trains to Horwich Parkway leave at least every half an hour from places such as Manchester, Blackpool, Preston and Bolton. The journey from Manchester takes about half an hour, whereas it takes less than 10 minutes from Bolton.
