| First time at ground 13:35 - Mar 20 with 1152 views | HokkaHokka | Hello We're looking at buying tickets on the website for tomorrows match. Any recommendations about best stand/seats please? Thanks in advance. |  | | |  |

The main singing section is up the back of S1, so anywhere near there would be good if that's your thing. The views are excellent from anywhere in the ground provided you're not at pitch level.

Parking at the stadium has already sold out for this one. Best bet is the Park and Ride on the opposite side of the A12 - it's definitely open for this match, and closes at 10.30 pm. It's a 5-10 minute walk to the ground from there. Safest (and club recommended route) is out the back of the park and ride and across the A12 via Boxted Rd bridge. It's quicker crossing at Junction 28 and walking across the waste-ground to the east of the stadium, but you'll be playing chicken with traffic using Junction 28 if you go that way. |  |

Great stuff, hope you enjoy yourself enough to come back If you haven't used it before, the park and ride is on the MiPermit system, the code for 'Park Only' is 737944, and you can book and pay for a ticket in advance (link below). https://www.essexhighways.org/ |  |

"It's quicker crossing at Junction 28 and walking across the waste-ground to the east of the stadium" The waste-ground is now a building site. It was fenced off about a month ago and work has now started on the leisure complex. |  | |  |
