True Blue Travel:

True Blue Travel spaces have sold out. The coaches depart from the usual spot (the HUB) at 9am.

How do I get to the ground?

Postcode for the ground is SW17 0BA. Due to a lack of parking and residents restrictions AFC Wimbledon advise fans to consider using public transport to get to the ground.

Which stand are we in?

We will be housed in the Cherry Red stand at one end of the ground (enter via Turnstiles 6 & 7).

Car parking information:

Incredibly limited around the ground with a number of parking restrictions and permit only roads. AFC Wimbledon recommend parking outside of the area and then using public transport. The nearest tube station is on the Northern Line, where some more northern tube stations will have car parks.

The closest paid car park to the ground is on Queen’s Road, SW19 8YD. Although this is a good 30-minute walk from the ground.

Public transport information:

The ground has very good transport links with Earlsfield Station (connects to Waterloo) (20 minute walk), Haydons Road (Thameslink and Southern) (15-minute walk) and Tooting Broadway (Northern Line on the tube) (25-minute walk) all in the area.

Pubs for away fans:

The pub located at the ground is home fans and local pubs enforce a strict policy of home fans only. The nearest pub for away fans is usually The Earlsfield beneath Earlsfield Station – which is around 20-minute walk away. Most away fans tend to drink elsewhere and then use the underground to get to the game. Alternatively there is The Woodman on Durnsford Road, it’s a short walk from Wimbledon Park underground on the district line.

Food & drink in the ground:

The usual football food will be on offer along with hot & cold drinks. There is also a bar serving alcohol.

Can I get a programme?

A programme is available for £3. It will be available for purchase once fans go through the turnstiles.

Flag policy:

Speak to a steward on arrival to ensure placement doesn’t overhang advertising board. Large flags should email [email protected] with a picture before travelling to see if it can be accommodated.
