SEAT ALLOCATION

Swansea City fans are housed behind the goal. Pies, pasties, sausage rolls, and hot dogs are sold. There is plenty of leg room and normally a great atmosphere, the concourse has a bookies but is very small. Alcohol is not sold in the stadium. Tickets are £10 for adults, £7 for those aged 65 and over, £4 for students and £1 for those aged 18 and under.

PARKING

There are car parks at some industrial units nearby and at Vicarage Road Girls School (WD18 0AE) costing £10. The ground is near the town centre, with car parks within walking distance. Church multi-storey car park (WD18 0JD), is £1 per hour on the inner ring road, but can be busy after the game. The Harlequin multi-storey (WD17 2UB), costs the same but is easier to get out of post-match. The Gade multi storey car park (WD18 0JX) is the same price and a 20-minute walk from the stadium; far enough away to get away easily.

BY TRAIN

Watford High Street station is 0.8 miles away from Vicarage Road, but most trains come into Watford Junction, which is 1.6 miles away. Watford has a tube station, (Metropolitan Line), under a mile from Vicarage Road, but trains from London are quicker.

Trains from Swansea to Watford Junction leave at 11.29am, 11.55am, 12.29pm, 12.56pm and 1:29pm, for the four-hour journey. The only train back to Swansea means leaving early to catch the 9.34pm, getting in at 2.17am. Tube travel is needed between Paddington and Euston and vice versa.
