STADIUM

West Stand

West Stand

This is the largest stand at the new stadium and not only contains conventional seating for U's fans, but also the directors box seating and corporate areas.

The directors box seating is located at the rear of the white seats in the centre of the picture, with the dugouts either side of the tunnel doors in the remaining seating in that area.

Press seating is also located here, in the first block to the right of the white seating, whilst the TV gantry is located under the roof of the stand and above the executive boxes.

The West Stand contains 24 executive boxes along with the Layer Suite and Centennial Suite which between them can hold up to 400 diners on a matchday.

As with the other three stands, the West Stand also has disabled seating decks - in this instance on the left and right hand side of this picture.

Underneath the West Stand are the club's adminstration offices, whilst the Club Shop, Ticket Office and Reception are also here.


North Stand

North Stand

This stand is that located closest to the A12, although the early days have indicated that the atmosphere in the ground has tended to block out any noise from passing traffic!

This is one of the areas dedicated to a singing section by the club and, as time evolves, it is hoped that this will become a vibrant and vocal part of the new stadium.

The disabled seating deck in this stand is located to the right in this picture.

East Stand

East Stand

It is early days, but the East Stand has staked a claim as the most vocal stand in the new stadium.

The Family Enclosure - so popular during the U's stay at Layer Road - is located in the first three blocks to the left of this stand, whilst the former Barsiders have opted to locate in E7 and E8, the final two blocks on the right of this picture.

E8, the furthest right, is an unreserved seating block, meaning that you can buy a ticket for this area but not a specific seat - great for when you want to bring some extra mates along and be sure that you'll be sat close by!

South Stand

South Stand

The home of the visiting supporters at the Weston Homes Community Stadium, this stand can hold just under 2,000 fans.

The stand also holds the matchday control room, located just above S5 in this picture and the block of seating below is that sold at family prices for visiting supporters.

The South Stand is sold from West to East and, on days when the number of visiting supporters allows, this stand can also be segregated by two doors in the concourses, allowing the U's to sell to home supporters on the left hand side of the stand as you look at it.
