Driving to Brighton 09:03 - Aug 28 with 2158 views | petieboy2011 | Apologies if this has already been posted, but those driving to the Brighton game on Sept 14th, be aware that all the parking around the ground including the Park & Rides has sold out due to an event relating to the University. There is also no street parking near the ground either. The upside is that non P&R buses and trains are free (apparently) if you have a matchday ticket - although presumably these will be absolutely heaving with all those that would usually park at the ground & P&R having to use these as well. Hopefully everyone gets there ok! I bet they wouldn't do this if Man City or Liverpool were visiting! |  | | |  |

Away games I always give myself a 15/20 minute walk to take in the sights and also a bit of breathing space for traffic getting out (ie avoid the big queues), would you say even that is going to be an issue? Again, don't worry if I am assuming too much BHA knowledge on your part! |  | |  |

Brighton's ground is in countryside between Brighton & Lewes. No parking near the ground means exactly that. Plan to use the P&R, or stations between Haywards Heath (start of matchday free travel). Brighton - Falmer (stadium stop) - Lewes has fairly frequent trains but they get very, very busy. Post-match queues reduce after about an hour. |  | |  |

Don't bars at the ground stay open to try and avoid everyone leaving at once? |  | |  |

Not got Brighton ticket yet. Think Man City took about a week, so expecting mine maybe tomorrow/Friday latest. |  | |  |

Also when I went there the last few times, the match ticket included travel on the train from Lewes to Falmer and back. [Post edited 28 Aug 2024 16:11]
