🏟️ Address: R. Premadasa Stadium, Khettarama Temple Rd, Colombo, 01000, Sri Lanka Directions in Google Maps
The easiest way to get to R. Premadasa Stadium is to take Baseline Road. You pass the bridge over the rail tracks and then turn left at the next big roundabout, onto Sri Saddama Mawatha, at the Maligawatta Burial Grounds. While there is parking across the street at the Cooperative Wholesale Establishment (and at any place that locals feel like renting out), this is not really recommended and your vehicle may be at risk. It's better to park some distance away and take a trishaw in.
