SEAT ALLOCATION
Away supporters are located on one side of the Barn Park End. It’s a modern stand with good facilities and views.
Concourses can become busy if there are large away followings. Interactive catering kiosks have been installed throughout the Home Park stadium, offering a range of food and beverage options.
TRAVELLING BY CAR
Home Park is well signposted from the A38, and the home side have provided the following directions for those travelling by road:
Approaching Plymouth from the East, exit the A38 at the Manadon roundabout, and take the second exit towards the city centre. Remain on Outland Road for around 1.5 miles (around 15 minutes on a busy matchday).
Then Home Park should appear into your view on the left-hand side, take the next available left and you will arrive at the stadium’s car park.
For sat-nav purposes, the postcode of the ground is PL2 3DQ.
Parking
Outland Road car park, adjacent to Home Park, is a large car park and is free to use on matchdays.
Plymouth Argyle have advised that it will fill up very quickly and so arriving early is recommended.
Alternatively, the city centre has a number of pay and display car parks, while The George Park & Ride (PL6 7HB) and Coypool Park Ride (PL7 4TB) run dedicated football bus services to the ground.
TRAVEL BY TRAIN
Plymouth Train Station is a 15 to 20-minute walk through the back of Central Park to Home Park. Please note that, while this a pleasant walk, the route is uphill.
Alternatively, it’s a five-minute drive in a taxi and the taxi rank is located just outside the main entrance of the railway station.
If you would prefer to pre-book a taxi in advance, Plymouth recommend Need-a-cab (01752 666222) or Tower Cabs (01752 252525).
Trains from Swansea can take between four hours and five hours, and leave roughly every hour.
Please plan rail journeys in advance, and keep checking for any changes to journeys. Please check return travel options.
SUPPORTER COACHES
Coaches will depart the Swansea.com Stadium at 1:30pm for this fixture.
Swansea City is disappointed to report that, after several anti-social behaviour incidents on coach travel this season, there will be increased security measures in place, and as a result, additional costs to the club.
The club is investigating a number of incidents and any supporters who have witnessed any anti-social behaviour can report this anonymously to support@swanseacity.com. As a result of the increased security costs, the club has taken the decision to increase the price of coach travel.
The club does not make any profit from coach travel and will continue to review security for coach travel with the aim of safely reducing security measures and associated costs in future matches.
Supporters under the age of 16 will be refused entry if they try to access away travel unaccompanied. Supporters using the coach service are reminded that, in line with traffic commissioner guidelines, strictly no alcohol can be brought on board the coaches.
Supporters who do not adhere to this rule, or partake in other anti-social behaviour, run the risk of the coaches being turned around and the club will look to impose a home and away fixture ban for the remainder of this season.
