Stadium Information
Vicarage Road has undergone stand renovations as recently as 2015 with the opening of the Sir Elton John Stand, including subsequent improvements and additions to hospitality and reception areas. Away fans are housed on the eastern side of the Vicarage Road stand, which is located behind one of the goals. The facilities in the concourses are modern, however concourse areas can be quite tight for space if there is a large following of away supporters. Turnstiles will open 90 minutes before kick-off.
