15th August
Fans
Swansea.com Stadium

CROESO ADREF, JACK ARMY!

Swansea City return to the Swansea.com Stadium for the first home league fixture of the 2025-26 season as Alan Sheehan's team host last season's beaten play-off finalists Sheffield United (3pm kick-off).

We are also marking 20 years of the Swansea.com Stadium (Liberty Stadium) by inviting supporters to wear their favourite home shirt from the past two decades.

Tickets for the game remain on sale and you can purchase them by clicking on the link below.

MINUTE'S SILENCE

Ahead of the game, we will be marking the passing of the club’s former general manager Gordon Daniels at the age of 94 who passed away this week, Swans player Dudley Lewis who sadly passed away this summer at the age of 62, and Alun Cowie who passed away at the age of 65. Cowie held a number of roles at the club, including general manager and football administration manager.

We will be holding a minute's silence before kick-off.

 

RETRO SHIRT DAY

Following a recommendation from the club's matchday experience working group, the club is encouraging supporters to join our 20th Anniversary celebrations by wearing their favourite Swans home shirt from the past 20 years to the game.

We can't wait to see your favourites on display!

NEW FOR 2025-26

NORTH CAR PARK ACCESS

Earlier today we announced a change to our matchday procedures

Over the summer break, the club has been making amendments to the stadium footprint in the northeast corner. There is now a permanent fence line situated along the back of our north car park. The introduction of this fence line is to support the club’s safety and security procedures on a matchday.

In future, supporters who are exiting the stadium via the northeast corner (adjacent to the River Tawe) will have two route options: 

  • Head South towards the Westacres South Stand (past the Mel Nurse Bar) and in the direction of the ticket office.
  • Head North along the river path; supporters who are walking towards Rossi’s/Landore can use the widened route towards the council-owned footpath adjacent to the River Tawe.

Supporters who are parked in the North Car Park, or have accessibility requirements, will be able to access the car park. However, they will be held for a short period of time until it is safe to allow access through the perimeter gates.

CONCOURSE KIOSK ORDERING

What is new?

  • Available from the Food kiosk - Food & drink can now be bought directly at the tills inside the food kiosks, making it quicker and easier to grab a bite.
  • Available from the Bar Kiosks - Express Drinks-Only service – just use the SOUs to order your favourite alcoholic or soft drink, and enjoy a faster, streamlined experience.
  • You can continue to pre-order your drinks before kick-off using the SOUs and pick them up at half-time.

 

MATCHDAY TICKET OFFICE OPENING

The ticket office will be open for matchday enquiries and purchases at 10am, and will close at half-time.

From half-time until 5.30pm, ticket purchases and enquiries will be handled from the club shop.

 

JUNIOR JACKS

Keep track of your 2025-26 Swans Journey, Junior Jacks, with the new season tracker poster.

LOVE FOOTBALL, PROTECT THE GAME

The atmosphere you create is a crucial part of our club, and Alan Sheehan, his staff and the players are hugely grateful for the manner in which you get behind the team.

However, in recent seasons, some clubs have witnessed unsavoury and unwelcome scenes with a small minority of people entering the field of play.

Pitch incursions are dangerous and anyone who does encroach onto the playing surface will face strong sanctions, that could include a ban from attending matches here at the Swansea.com Stadium and across the country, as well as possible police action.

It is a criminal offence to enter the pitch and the real-life consequences for these actions have seen some of those responsible receive criminal records which can impact employment, education prospects and international travel.

We ask you to keep the pitch for players and the stands for supporters and avoid any unnecessary disruption.

Everybody should feel safe at football, and we all have a role to play in keeping each other safe on matchdays.

Love Football, Protect the Game.
