Villa Park away guide

Aston Villa away end

Away fans are in the north east corner of the Doug Ellis Stand, across both tiers: block Q below, block P above. Lower tier goes in at turnstiles Q91 to Q96B, upper tier at P87 to P89, and the upper is 64 steps up from ground level to the concourse. If you're running late, Q96 and P89 stay open until the second half has started. The visitors' ticket office is on Witton Lane, opposite the away coach park.

Villa Park bag policy

Villa's own pages disagree on bag size: the bag policy says nothing over A4, the matchday guides say 20cm by 15cm by 5cm. Anything bigger goes to the £5 bag drop on Witton Lane.

Checked 23 Sept 2026 against Aston Villa bag policy graphic and matchday guide, which conflict.

Getting to Villa Park: nearest station

Witton station is the closest at about 8 minutes from the away turnstiles, with direct services from Birmingham New Street. Aston station is a similar 10-minute walk on the other side of the ground but jams up after big games, so Witton is the smoother exit. Drink near Witton or in central Birmingham and ride out from New Street.
