Matchday information for fans heading to Pride Park

Leeds United travel to Pride Park Stadium to face Derby County in the Emirates FA Cup on Sunday at midday and we would like to thank every fan that will be making the journey 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.

Dangerous behaviours, discriminatory language, tragedy chanting, and inappropriate gestures are not acceptable. You could be breaking the law and face a football ban. The club condemns these kinds of behaviours and has a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of hate.

Both Leeds United and Derby County players will wear black armbands during the match to pay tribute to former player Terry Yorath who sadly passed away earlier this week.

Leeds United will also be helping to promote the Wings for Life World Run, which raises money for spinal cord injury research, with a special kit change for this fixture. This will see the logo proudly displayed on the back of first-team shirts worn in the match.

Wings for Life World Run is a unique global race available for both runners and wheelchair participants in which participants run away from a moving, virtual finish line in the app. Instead of a set finish line, competitors across the world all start at the same time and race to keep ahead of a moving finish line called the Virtual Catcher Car which tracks your progress in the Wings for Life World Run app.

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.
If supporters are travelling by car, Derby County recommend pre-booking parking in a safe and secure car park to avoid paying fines. Reservations can be made at this link.

Opening times:

Car Parks – 9am
Away Ticket Office – 10am
Turnstiles – 10:30am

Know the stadium layout and policies:

The away supporters’ section at Pride Park Stadium is located in the South-East Corner Stand. This section is clearly signposted around the stadium, but please speak with any stewards or Matchday Supporter Liaison Officers if you require assistance.
Apart from external catering vendors, Pride Park is a cashless stadium accepting only contactless, debit card and credit card payments.

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.
