Accessible buggy service
An accessible buggy service will be in operation for supporters who require assistance. This complimentary service operates pre and post-match, subject to any operational security changes.
Pre-match pick-up points – The buggy will depart from the bottom of Joe Mercer Way, inside the Blue Car Park. Once arriving at the top of Joe Mercer Way, you will disembark the buggy and walk the pedestrianised walkway to your stadium entrance.
Post-match - The service will operate after the final whistle once it is safe to do so. This may take up to 30 minutes to allow pedestrians to safely leave the stadium.
Bringing an Assistance Dog
Assistance dogs are welcome. Please contact the Access Team at least 72 hours before the match so we are able to prepare for your visit and make your comfortable on the day.
