Vicarage Road
Home of Watford in Watford, capacity 22,200. Away fans are in the Vicarage Road Stand. Watford High Street is closer than Watford Junction, save yourself the extra walk.
Also known as Vicarage Road Stadium.
Vicarage Road away guide
Away fans are in the Vicarage Road Stand, at the opposite end to the Rookery, in the blocks the club label VRS on their own stadium map. The turnstiles for that stand are numbered 14 to 19, on the Vicarage Road side, with an accessible entrance among them, and they open 90 minutes before kick-off. The map also warns there is no way through between the upper Graham Taylor tier and the Rookery inside the ground, so get the right side before you go in.
A4 or it does not come in. Anything bigger goes to the bag drop by the Supporter Services office, which stays open half an hour after the whistle.
Checked 17 Aug 2026 against Watford visiting information.
Watford High Street (Overground) is about a 10-minute walk to the away turnstiles and the closer of the two stations. Watford Junction (Overground and National Rail) is a 20-minute walk but has direct services from Euston, useful if you're coming from further afield. Watford also has its own tube station on the Metropolitan line, a little under a mile out. The ground shares its streets with Watford General Hospital, so the area gets busy on matchday, factor that in.
