FAQ
Stadium of Light tickets — common questions
How do I get to Stadium of Light?
Stadium of Light Metro station sits beside the ground on the Tyne and Wear Metro. St Peter's, one stop away, is the usual alternative when the queues build after full time.
Can I get away tickets at Stadium of Light?
Usually, yes — they are just harder to come by than home tickets. Clubs get a limited away allocation and sell it to members and season-ticket holders first, so less of it reaches resale. Away supporters sit in the upper tier of the North Stand, an allocation of around 3,000. The Premier League approved the club's request to keep them there for 2026/27.
Are there restricted-view seats at Stadium of Light?
Like any bowl this size, some seats have a pillar, a rail or a gantry in the way. Where a seller flags a listing as restricted view, we show it on the listing — so you can pick a normal seat instead, or take the restricted one, which is usually the cheaper way in.
