How do I get to the ground?
Postcode is FY7 6TX
Come off the M6 at junction 32 and head onto the M55 towards Blackpool. Take junction 3 towards A585, Fleetwood. You’ll come to a roundabout with Blackpool and Fylde College on your left. Head straight towards Fleetwood, at the next roundabout take the first exit. A mile down this road you’ll pass Fleetwood Fire Station on your left, then branch left before taking a left turn onto Radcliffe Road. Take the next right onto Stanley Road and the stadium as at the bottom of the road on the left.
What stand are we in?
Town fans are in the Parkside stand for seating and Percy Ronson stand for standing.
When do turnstiles open?
Turnstiles open 90 minutes before kick off.
Where is the best place to park?
There is limited street parking available around the ground including on Gordon Road (FY7 6UF) and Addison Road (FY7 6UH) – be mindful of any restrictions in place. There are numerous pay and display car parks available around 15-20 minutes walk away.
Central Car Park – FY7 6RF
Marine Hall and Leisure Centre Car Park – FY7 6HF
Is there any disabled parking?
There is no disabled parking available at the ground so it’s street parking with a blue badge only.
What is the nearest train station to the stadium and what is the approximate distance and walking time?
Fleetwood doesn’t have a railway station so the nearest is located in Poulton-le-Fylde, 7 miles away. It’ll be easier to head to Blackpool North as you’ll have an option of a taxi, bus (1 or 14) or the tram up the seafront. These are every 20 minutes – use the Stanley Road stop, that is close to the stadium.
Recommended pubs for away fans?
At the ground, away fans are welcome in Jim’s Bar – otherwise it’s a 15 minute walk to the town centre where there are plenty of places to drink. Alternatively there is Blackpool and then tram in but this will likely be very busy because of a two day air show.
Food available in the area?
Jim’s Bar at the ground also sells hot and cold food. Poulton Road/Highbury Avenue have a couple of outlets but other than that, it’s a 15 minute walk to the town centre.
Where is the nearest cash machine to the Stadium?
Nearest free cash machine is at Tesco on Poulton Road – FY7 6QT
What food and drink is available on the concourse at the stadium?
Highbury stadium is a CASHLESS venue.
Both stands have food kiosks selling a large range of hot and cold food and drinks.
Alcohol is only available to fans accessing the away end in the Parkside Stand.
Is there a printed programme?
Fleetwood Town have restarted printed programmes and are available around the ground.
What is the process for supporters looking to bring flags into the stadium?
Please follow stewards instructions – flags cannot be on poles and must not be placed over advertising boards or safety signage.
