Frequently asked Questions

Arrival Time

Turnstiles will open approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes before kick-off. We would recommend arriving with plenty of time to spare to prevent last-minute queues!

Away Allocations

Because of the rules governing allocations of away tickets, it isn’t always possible for the club to take the maximum allocations, especially if we don’t think we would sell all of the tickets. We take many factors into consideration, such as previous attendances at that ground, time and date of the fixture, whether the game has been selected for live TV coverage etc. We always try and take as large an allocation as possible, but we do have to be sensible about which allocation we decide to take due to the financial penalties incurred should we not sell the full allocation taken.

Bag Policy

We recommend that you do not bring any bag larger than an A4 piece of paper. All bags brought into the stadium are subjected to a search prior to entry.

Cameras

The general rule is that small personal cameras are allowed, but anything with an additional lens such as a DSLR is prohibited. Photographs taken are for personal use only.

Cashless

St Mary's Stadium is now fully cashless and therefore we only accept payments by card. We do also accept Apple Pay and Google Pay.
