Joie Stadium: What’s new at WSL matches in 2025/26 | OneFootball

Ahead of City’s first Barclays WSL match at the Joie Stadium in 2025/26, find out what’s new at our home this season…

Andrée Jeglertz’s side host Brighton on Friday 12 September at 19:30 (UK) – and tickets can be purchased here.

We enter the fixture looking to build on the positives and bounce back from our narrow defeat to Chelsea last time out – and before the Blues play at home for the first time this term, there are a swathe of new activations set to take place at the Joie this season, starting from our clash with the Seagulls.

BUGGY PARK (LIMITED SPACES)

For the first time, fans will be able to bring their buggies into the stadium thanks to Joie. This dedicated area will be located behind the West Stand. When fans arrive at the stadium with their buggy, a steward will show them to the gazebo and , the pram will then be stored there until after the match when fans can pick it up.

ALCOHOL IN BOWL IN TRIAL

Fans over the age of 18 can now drink alcohol in the majority seats across the stadium.

Man City Women is one of the seven clubs taking part in the Women's Super League's trial which will give supporters the chance to drink alcohol in the stands of the Joie Stadium should they wish.

Any alcoholic beverage purchased at our concessions stands, as well as at the Asahi bar, can be consumed, apart from in the North West corner. This is because the following sections of the stadium are not participating in the trial:

West 1 – Joie Family Area

West 2

West 3
