Inside Stadium of Light
The visiting configuration at Stadium of Light is fixture-dependent. Use the away club's sale notice for the exact section, entrance and ticket total.
The Premier League approved Sunderland's request to keep visiting supporters in the North Stand Upper for 2026/27. Recent full allocations have ranged from 1,875 to about 2,773 depending on demand and segregation.
Treat the visiting club's sale notice as definitive. The upper tier's physical size and a previous figure of roughly 3,000 are not guarantees for every fixture.
The away section is high behind the goal in the North Stand Upper, normally reached through turnstiles 69-74. The climb is substantial, so allow time and ask the club about lift or accessible arrangements before travel.
The height gives a broad, generally clear view of the pitch but places visiting supporters a long way from the action. The covered bowl protects most seats, although Wearside wind can still be noticeable on the approach.
Upper-tier concourse kiosks provide hot food, snacks, soft drinks and fixture-dependent alcohol. Payment and product availability can change, so bring a card and check the current guide.
Sunderland provides a small number of away accessible parking bays and accessible seating, all of which must be booked through the visiting club. Metro crowd routing after the final whistle differs by direction.
Travel, parking, ticket allocations and stadium procedures can change by fixture. Check the latest information from both clubs and the relevant operator before travelling. Guide checked 28 September 2026.
