Matchday Information | Port Vale vs Exeter City

It's Emirates FA Cup action at Vale Park on Saturday as we welcome Exeter City to Burslem... the below matchday guide has information on ticketing, parking, the Staffordshire University Fan Zone and more ⬇️

Port Vale Remembrance Fixture

Ahead of Saturday's game, our closest home fixture to Remembrance weekend, we will pay our respects and remember those who have lost their lives in conflict.

The period of silence and remembrance will take place before kick-off and we politely request supporters take to their seats in good time to pay their respects.

Tickets

Tickets are available in the Lorne Street, Railway Paddock and Railway Stand only. The Bycars Stand would open in the event all other stands reach capacity.

Away fans are situated in the Hamil End with remaining tickets available on the gate to away supporters.

The decision to initially close the Bycars Stand for this fixture has been taken based on attendance at previous similar First Round ties, with a view to operating with more sustainable environmental practices in line with the EFL Green Clubs scheme, where possible, and reducing additional costs associated with opening a stand not at capacity.

Supporters should note that ticket prices are subject to a £2 increase on matchday, with advance purchase also recommended to avoid matchday queues.

Supporters who purchase tickets for our Emirates FA Cup First Round tie with the Grecians will be rewarded with double loyalty points (10) for this fixture, as a further reward for your excellent continued support.

Tickets prices agreed between the clubs are as follows:

Ticket Type In Advance Matchday
Adult (22-61) £15 £17
Concession (18-21 / 62) £10 £12
Junior (17 and Under) £5 £7

We politely request supporters arrive at Vale Park in good time to avoid entry queues.

Supporters should have tickets ready to be scanned on approach to the Stadium. If you’re accessing the stadium with an e-ticket, please ensure the device is not in dark mode and the brightness is turned up to maximum.

Away Ticket Collection
