EXETER CITY
St James Park (capacity 8,541)
Exeter City have played their home games at St James Park since 1904, when the club was formed. The stadium has recently undergone significant development, with the old Grandstand and St James Road Terrace replaced.
The new Stagecoach Stand is an all-seater single tiered stand with a capacity of around 1,600. Whilst it isn’t much bigger than the old Grandstand, it doesn’t have any supporting pillars so fans have a much better view of the match. A new covered terrace, the St James Road Stand, with capacity for 950 away fans plus a wheelchair bay has been erected, using components purchased from Barnet FC plus new cladding and new toilet and refreshment facilities.
Away fans visiting St James Park are located in the new Marsh Kia St James Road Stand, with capacity for 950 fans. There is also 350 seats made available in the Main Stand should demand require it.

Exit the station and turn left onto Queen Street. Continue along until the road meets the High Street and turn left onto Sidwell Street. Continue all the way up this road to the crossroads, and then turn left onto York Road and cross the road. Then take a right onto Oxford Road, where you will see the stadium approaching in front of you.
