Accessible parking and drop-off/pick-up points

There are a total of 107 accessible parking bays on site, the majority of which are booked on a seasonal basis. However match day parking sales are available in the clubs Bridge Car Park, which is situated 850 metres away from the ground. Accessible parking is available at 50% discount, but this must be pre-booked via the club’s supporter services team on 0344 324 6282, and a copy of a Blue badge must be provided prior to booking.

As on 2018/19 parking passes can be purchased via the away club when away supporters purchase their tickets. This saves travelling supporters missing out if their club's tickets go on sale after Brighton & Hove Albion. Accessible parking can be booked up until 5 hours prior to kick-off as long as a Blue badge has been provided, having said this we are usually sold out a week before the match.

Drop off facilities are available, but early arrival is necessary, more information on the access guide.
