Although Southampton is an affordable city, you can sometimes pay a premium for accommodation because it hosts many cruise ship passengers who use it as a stop off point for their travels. That said, it’s not the most luxurious destination either, meaning many of its hotels err on the cheaper side.
There are 12 entry gates around the stadium from A through M. Please use the gate that corresponds with your ticket. Turnstiles typically open 90 minutes before kick-off.
Accessible Toilets
Changing Places Facility
Changing Places toilets are different to standard accessible toilets, as they have extra features that allow for more space to meet the needs of those who use them. The facility is located on the first floor of the stadium, allowing access for all visitors who may need to use it. It has also been placed near to a raised desk for disabled seating.
Sensory Room
The Sensory Room provides a calming environment for fans of all ages with sensory differences, or who may find the stadium environment challenging. The facility is a great opportunity for new supporters and families who might otherwise have felt unable to attend their first match.
