Old Trafford away guide
The away allocation sits in the South Stand (Sir Bobby Charlton Stand), Lower Tier, in the south-east corner where the South Stand meets the East Stand (Stretford End side opposite). The block runs across the corner sections of Tier 1. United offer around 3,000 away seats for league fixtures, the Premier League standard. Away turnstiles are off Sir Matt Busby Way and signposted on the day.
Old Trafford does not allow bags larger than 20cm by 15cm by 5cm onto the stadium footprint. Bigger bags must use a designated bag drop, including E2 car park for away supporters.
