Albion's match against Aston Villa has sold out.

Please note that we are not running our matchday travel scheme for this match, so those fans travelling by bus or train must buy a ticket from the relevant operator. A match ticket will not enable you to travel on trains or buses for this match.

All fans are asked to head to the stadium as early as possible regardless of how they are travelling.

Parking: Spaces are available to purchase at the Bridge car park from the club’s ticket website, or can be bought at the car park entrance using cash only, at a price of £15 per bay.

There are also a limited number of spaces available at Sussex University (Car Park C) and these must all be pre-booked at the club’s ticket website, as there will be no cash sales for parking on the day.

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 a short walk through the underpass to the Amex stadium.

Park & Ride: Brighton Racecourse (BN2 9XZ) is the only park and ride service in operation for the match from 4.45pm onwards. You can buy parking tickets for this service from the club’s ticket website, or by using cash only at the car park entrance at a price of £5 per bay.

Trains: For supporters travelling by rail, you must purchase a ticket to travel from the relevant rail company, and we advise you to check Southern’s website prior to travelling.

Other: There is no local street parking available for football supporters, as all areas close to the Amex 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 buy 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 Woollard Way (entrance to the Bridge car park), and supporters are advised to use our official drop off and pick up point located at Sussex University. The drop-off/pick-up point there is in car park 5, located by the sports hall. This is a short walk through the underpass to the stadium.
