Parking
Limited parking spaces are available in the rear car park for £2 per car. Cash and card payments accepted - if paying by cash, the exact amount is appreciated.
Please do not park parallel to KFC or in Tesco car park where time restrictions are in operation.
Entering The Avenue
Turnstiles will open at 12:45pm.
Magpies supporters will be able to enter the ground on the west side of the stadium, via the turnstiles next to the main stand.
Weymouth supporters will be able to access the stadium on the east side of the ground, next to our main rear car park on the railway side.
The club will be operating a full search procedure for the game including bag searching. To avoid any delay into the stadium we recommend where possible do not bring bags to the game.
Refreshments
The Magpies Suite, Turnstile Tavern (aka the Cans Bar situated between the Main Stand and Tesco End) and outside Marquee will be open for HOME supporters only.
Due to segregation being in place, away supporters are not allowed access to The Magpies Suite, Turnstile Tavern and outside Marquee, however there will be an outdoor bar available in the away section.
Snack bars will also be open in both sections of the stadium, with both card and cash payment methods accepted. Again, if paying by cash, the exact amount is appreciated.
Away Supporters - Dorchester Cricket Club
Dorchester Cricket Club will be open to Weymouth supporters:
"Dorchester Cricket Club would like to welcome Weymouth FC fans to the cricket club for pre-match hospitality. The bar will be open 12-2:30 and closed after the game.
Car parking is £2 and will be an honesty payment approach in the bar area. Access to the field is near the cemetery 200 meters Dorchester town side of the clubhouse / car dealership.
Rolls, crisps, chocolate and soft drinks will all be available. The bar will be open but we don’t hold much stock in the winter, so a can bar will also be in operation.
We look forward to welcoming you all to the Rec on Saturday.
Merry Christmas all.
Dorchester Cricket Club."
We take great pride in the fantastic atmosphere at The Avenue Stadium.
We appreciate your co-operation and look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on derby day this Christmas.
Thank you for your continued support!
