Disabled Facilities
40 Disabled Supporters bays are situated on raised platforms in the away section purely for the use of away supporters. There are no specific arrangements for ambulant disabled supporters of either the home or away side, however the club is sure that the wider seats in the new stadium provide adequate leg room.
Where To Drink
There is not much in the immediate vicinity around the stadium. There is one pub called the Swan Inn located on Middle Street in Falmer, which is about 15 minute walk away, but for most fixtures this is for home fans only. Alcohol is served within the ground in the form of Kronenburg (£3.80), Strongbow (£3.80), Harveys real ale (£3.60), Fosters (£3.60), White, Red or Rose wine (£3.80). The Club also offer a 'Pie and a Pint' for £6.50. Harveys have also produced a special 'Albion' bottles beer which is only available at the stadium or from the Harveys shop in Lewes. 5p from every bottle sold will be donated to the Macmillan Cancer Support charity.
Outside Brighton Mainline Station there are a number of excellent pubs. If arriving at the Mill Road Park and Ride then a little further on down London Road (A23) on the left is the Black Lion pub which is a Harvester outlet.
