Sponsorship, Hospitality & Matchday Experiences

We’re delighted to welcome Hann Roofing as our matchday sponsor.

We currently have just 6 seats remaining in our hospitality area and one matchday experience available.

Car Parking

Our season ticket holders’ car park will remain reserved for their use.

Our general car park will be open, and charges £3 per car. We anticipate this will fill quickly.

A limited number of Blue Badge parking spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis – we advise early arrival to secure a space.

Once the main car park reaches capacity, supporters are asked to use the nearby industrial estates, located just a 5-10-minute walk from the stadium.

Please do not park in the housing estates near the club and ensure all parking is done considerately.

We look forward to welcoming both sets of supporters to The Optima Stadium for what promises to be a memorable FA Cup afternoo
