Fans are reminded that the matchday travel scheme does not apply for this game, and a match ticket will not enable you to travel on trains or buses for this match.

Please remember to buy a separate ticket to travel from the relevant operator.

We would like to encourage all fans to arrive as early as possible before the game, regardless of how they are travelling.

Park & Ride: We are operating a park and ride service from Brighton Racecourse – (BN2 9XZ) that will be in operation from 4pm onwards, and this service is available for fans to buy in advance at £5 per vehicle from the club’s ticket website.

Trains: For fans travelling by train, you will need to buy a ticket to travel off the relevant rail company, and we advise that you check with Southern’s website prior to travelling.

Parking: All spaces at the Bridge (Car Park B) have now sold out, but you can still secure your spaces at Sussex University (Car Park C). Please remember to pre-book via the club’s ticket website, as the club will not be accepting cash sales for parking on the day of the game.

All vehicles accredited to park at Sussex University must enter via Stanmer Park, as there will be no entry at Falmer or Knights Gate.

Sussex University (Car Park C) is just a short walk through the underpass to the Amex stadium.

Please do not park on any of the local streets close to the Amex, as these areas have a residents’ parking scheme in operation, and enforcement officers will be on patrol.

Village Way will be extremely busy and congested, and we advise that you avoid this area both pre and post-match, unless you have pre-booked parking.

Buses: Brighton & Hove Buses will be operating a normal midweek service, but you must purchase a ticket to travel from the relevant bus company for this match.

Seagull Travel: Seagull Travel will be running services from various locations, and spaces are available to pre-book via their website.

Drop-offs & Pick-ups: There will be no pick-ups or drop-offs along Village Way, or at the Woollard Way (entrance to the Bridge car park), and we advise that you use our official drop off and pick up point located at University of Sussex, where our drop-off point is in car park 5, located by the Sports Hall.

This drop-off/pick-up point is a short walk through the underpass to the Amex Stadium.
