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

Fans are advised that the University of Sussex will be holding an open day from 8.30am onwards, with between 6,000 and 7,000 people expected to attend. As a consequence, all seasonal parkers will be moved to other locations.

All University of Sussex seasonal parking supporters have now been emailed with their new allocated parking locations, therefore please have your parking hanger on display, and stewards will be checking names against the allocated parking lists.

The only people that will be allowed to park at the University of Sussex will be our seasonal disabled supporters who park in car park 5 (Sports Hall car park). Fans will be able to drop off and pick up from this car park as normal.

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

Trains: Southern Rail have informed the club that they will be operating an enhanced service for this match, and supporters are advised to check with their website prior to travelling.

Park & Rides: The park and ride site at Brendon Horse & Rider Centre, Haresdean Farm, London Rd, Pyecombe, Brighton BN45 7ED, has now completely sold out.

The sites at Brighton Racecourse and Mill Road will be open from 9:30am, but please note that the park & ride site at the University of Brighton on Lewes Road is currently unavailable.

Car Parks: The Bridge (Car Park B) has completely sold out, and we will have no cash parking available on the day.

Village Way will be extremely busy and congested, therefore supporters are advised to avoid this area both pre and post-match, unless they have pre-booked parking.

Buses: Brighton & Hove Buses will be operating a full service within the club’s travel scheme, therefore free travel is available to supporters on production of a match ticket, but please check the club’s ticket website for areas listed within the bus travel scheme.

Parking: There is no local street parking available for football supporters, as all areas have a residents’ parking scheme in operation, and enforcement officers will be on patrol.

Seagull Travel: Seagull Travel will be running their usual matchday 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 supporters are advised to use our official drop-off and pick-up point located at University of Sussex, which is located by the Sports Hall. This is a short walk through the underpass to the Amex Stadium.
