Chelsea tickets - Experience Chelsea at Stamford Bridge!

The easiest way to reach Stamford Bridge is by taking the London Underground to Fulham Broadway station (District Line), which is just a 5-minute walk from the stadium. On match days, this station gets extremely busy, so consider arriving at least 90 minutes before kick-off. Alternatively, you can use nearby stations like West Brompton or Imperial Wharf and walk a bit further. Driving is not recommended as there's very limited parking around the stadium and match day restrictions apply. Many fans gather at local pubs like The Butcher's Hook or The Chelsea Pensioner before matches, which adds to the pre-game experience.

No, Chelsea does not offer stadium tours on match days or the day before matches. If you're planning to visit London to watch a game, you should schedule your stadium tour at least two days before or after the match. The standard tour includes access to the dressing rooms, tunnel, pitch side, press room, and the Chelsea Museum. Some ticket packages from travel agencies include a stadium tour on non-match days as part of the experience. It's worth noting that the Chelsea Museum remains open on match days until three hours before kick-off, so you can still learn about the club's history even if you can't tour the entire stadium.

The Chelsea Megastore at Stamford Bridge is open seven days a week from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM (with extended hours until 7:30 PM on match days). It offers the full range of official Chelsea merchandise, from current and retro kits to training wear, fashion items, souvenirs, and gifts. You can get shirts personalized with your name or favorite player's name and number. The store tends to be extremely busy in the hours before kick-off and immediately after matches, so if you want a more relaxed shopping experience, visit on a non-match day or arrive very early on match day. There's also an official online store if you prefer to shop in advance.

For first-time visitors wanting to experience the best atmosphere, the Matthew Harding Lower Stand is excellent as it's where some of the most vocal supporters sit. If you prefer a better overall view of the game, the East Upper Stand offers good sight lines of the entire pitch. The West Stand is more expensive but provides comfortable seating and a good view. Families with children might prefer the East Lower Family Section, which has a more relaxed atmosphere. The Shed End is another atmospheric choice, particularly for big matches. Be aware that Stamford Bridge is an older stadium, so some seats in the corners have restricted views due to supporting pillars – these are usually marked as such when purchasing.

Yes, Chelsea implements a smart casual dress code for most hospitality areas at Stamford Bridge. This typically means no sportswear (including football shirts), ripped jeans, or flip-flops. Men usually wear smart jeans or trousers with a collared shirt, while women opt for smart casual attire. The exact requirements vary slightly depending on which hospitality package you purchase – premium options like the Centenary Club or Directors' Box have stricter dress codes than more casual hospitality areas. If you're unsure, check the specific requirements for your package in advance. The dress code only applies to hospitality areas; if you have regular stadium seating, you can wear Chelsea colors and merchandise like most fans do.
