City Ground
Home of Nottingham Forest in Nottingham, capacity 30,404. The riverside walk along the Trent from the station is one of the nicest in the league. Away fans are in the John Robertson Stand, the old Bridgford Stand.
City Ground away guide
Behind the goal at the south end, in the lower tier of the John Robertson Stand. Forest renamed it in May 2026 in honour of John Robertson, so tickets, ground guides and some signage still call it the Bridgford Stand. Head for the away turnstiles on Colwick Road, signposted as you come over Trent Bridge, with the visitors' ticket office collection point right behind the stand. Away wheelchair bays are in blocks W2 and X2, reached through the home accessible entrance in the lower tier and then escorted across.
Forest's matchday guide says no bags larger than A4 are permitted at the City Ground. It advises supporters to bring a bag only if absolutely essential.
Checked 4 Aug 2026 against Nottingham Forest away supporters guide.
Nottingham station is about a 20-minute walk along the Embankment, the prettiest approach to a Premier League ground, or roughly a ten-minute bus ride if you would rather not walk it. Forest point visiting fans at the Nottingham City Transport services numbered 5 to 11, which drop closest to the ground. The tram is the one to ignore: no stop serves the City Ground, and the closest, Meadows Embankment, still leaves you a 20-minute walk. After the game the walk back to the station is generally clear, the river path empties cleanly.
