Information for supporters travelling to Stamford Bridge

Leeds United travel to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea in the Premier League on Tuesday evening and we would like to thank every fan that will be making the journey south to support the team.

During your trip, please remember that we are all representing not only Leeds United Football Club, but also the city of Leeds, and we ask that you always show respect to other fans, staff and players.

Digital ticketing will become a mandatory requirement for all existing Premier League clubs by no later than Season 2026/27. Newly promoted clubs will have a period of two years to implement its use upon joining the League. Therefore, as part of our transition to being fully digital, our ticket allocation for the Chelsea away fixture will be digital NFC tickets. A digital NFC ticket will be emailed to each ticket holder. Once the deadline for away ticket refunds has passed, digital tickets will be sent out no later than close of business on Thursday 5th February. Digital tickets can only be downloaded once. Please note, screenshots of digital tickets will not work. All supporters are encouraged to arrive early for this game and ensure that they have downloaded their digital ticket to their Apple/Google wallet on their smartphone before arriving at Stamford Bridge.

Please see below some other pieces of information to take into consideration ahead of travelling.

Plan your journey early:

Whether you’re travelling by train/car/bus make sure you leave with plenty of time to spare before the game. Supporters are advised to arrive no later than 60 minutes before kick-off (7.30pm).
As Stamford Bridge is located in a busy residential area, parking is limited and often reserved. Chelsea therefore recommend utilising public transport, notably tube or train, or the bus.
There is a limited amount of coach parking located on Imperial Road. This parking is approximately a 10 to 15 minute walk from the ground.

Opening times:

Away Ticket Office is open from 4.30pm
Turnstiles open from 6pm

Know the stadium layout and policies:

Access to the away seating is via Dickie’s Deck, to the left of the East Stand concourse. There is a railed ramp to get up to the accessible entrance which will take you to the accessible platform. Stewards will be at the entrance to assist with tickets and entrance needs.
A full range of refreshments, including alcohol, will be available for purchase at the kiosks on the concourse. Stamford Bridge is a cashless stadium and only card payments will be accepted.

Stay safe:

Keep yourself and others as safe as possible at all times, especially during any match incidents and both pre-match and at half-time in the concourses.
Remember that throwing objects and the use of flares, pyrotechnics and smoke bombs are strictly forbidden. Remain in the seat you have purchased, and refrain from standing on your seats and blocking aisles in the away section.
All supporters will be searched thoroughly before entering the stadium.
