Southampton: St Mary's Stadium Guide

St-Mary’s Stadium is a relatively new and modern stadium having been the home of Southampton since August 2001. It is the largest football stadium in the South East of England holding over 32,500 fans.

The stadium is a basic design with four stands of equal height surrounding the playing surface. The Itchen Stand and Kingsland Stand are located in the East and West of the ground and are the Longside seats.

The Northam Stand and Chapel Stand are the two seating areas behind each goal, where Shortside Upper and Shortside Lower tickets are hosted. Due to the stadium cantilever roof, there are relatively unrestricted views throughout the stadium.## Southampton Ticket Types

**Season / Members Cards:**These are seats allocated to Southampton club members and season ticket holders who have made their matchday seats available for games at St Mary’s Stadium. Football Ticket Pad customers will receive their Season / Members card for the required match by collecting the tickets in plenty of time from an agreed collection point before returning the tickets in a prepaid envelope after the match. To gain entry to the stadium, customers must scan their card at the turnstile shown on the card.

**E-tickets:**These are only used for Football Ticket Pad customers who have purchased Southampton hospitality tickets or Southampton VIP tickets at St Mary’s. Once your hospitality ticket has been purchased, you will be sent an email from Football Ticket Pad which will include your e-ticket to gain entry to the stadium. Customers can either print off the e-ticket or present the barcode on their electronic device. There is plenty of corporate hospitality suites options at St Mary’s including in the Itchen Stand which offers central seats on the halfway line or the opportunity to sit in one of the 42 executive boxes towards the rear of the stand.

Paper tickets: Paper tickets are also provided by Football Ticket Pad and customers can receive their ticket 3-4 days prior to the match. Your Southampton ticket will be sent to the billing address provided in the original transaction and will be sent an email confirmation when their tickets have been dispatched. Customers then scan their paper ticket at the turnstile printed on the ticket to gain entry to the stadium.

Southampton Stadium Seating

Longside Upper: These seats can provide great views of the action and can be found in the upper tier of the Itchen Stand and Kingsland Stand which run alongside the touchline of the pitch on both sides. Fans can enjoy seats on the halfway line and a view almost as if you are watching the match from the comfort of your armchair!

Longside Lower: If you want to be close to the pitch then there are not many seats that allow you to get as close to the players and the manager as Longside Lower seats. Similar to Longside Upper, these seats can be found in both the Itchen Stand and Kingsland Stand.

Longside Lower tickets in the Itchen Stand can have you next to the players dugout and a great view of the match with the added bonus of seeing the managers prowl the touchline and bark instructions to their players. Longside Lower seats in the Itchen Stand will be in Blocks 3-11 and in the Kingsland Stand, blocks 27-35.

Shortside Upper: These tickets are hosted in the upper sections of both the Northam Stand and Chapel Stand behind each goal. The Northam Stand houses the majority of the club's vocal supporters which makes for a passionate and noisy afternoon, especially with its close proximity to the away fans!

However, the Chapel Stand is a lot quieter and is the Family Stand which makes it a perfect option for families after a good day out at the match with decent views.

Shortside Lower: These are often the cheapest tickets in the stadium and can be found in the lower tiers behind each goal in the North Stand and Chapel Stand. Both stands make for a great atmosphere for Southampton fans looking to catch The Saints live at St Mary's. Blocks 17-19 are popular for fans looking for Southampton tickets in the Chapel Stand.

VIP Hospitality: Southampton Football Club has a selection of VIP hospitality tickets for their matches at St Mary’s Stadium and Football Ticket Pad has a limited number available for some of the biggest matches. There are numerous hospitality packages available and Football Ticket Pad can source Southampton hospitality tickets on request.

The club hospitality suites and executive boxes can be found at the rear of the Itchen Stand with a choice of 42 executive boxes with various Southampton VIP tickets listed. Southampton hospitality tickets are a fantastic way to watch The Saints at home so why not see what Football Ticket Pad can offer!

Away Section: At St Mary’s the away section is housed in the corner of the Northam Stand with an allocation of over 3,000 supporters for Premier League matches and over 4,000 for FA Cup and EFL Cup matches.

Away section tickets are available for some of the biggest matches and an away day on the south coast should provide great entertainment for avid football supporters following their respective teams.
