Supporters with any ticketing issues on the day of the game should visit the South West Collection Office, which is situated opposite turnstile S (on podium level). The office will be open three hours prior to kick-off and will close at half-time. Everyone attending the fixture is advised to bring photo ID if they are collecting tickets.

If you have a digital away ticket for the fixture, please note the following advice:

Don't forget to charge your phone before heading to Emirates Stadium. When preparing to enter the stadium, open the Apple Wallet or Google Wallet app on your phone. It is advisable to ensure you do not have any bank or other contactless cards at the back of your phone case.

If you have multiple tickets attributed to the same fixture on one device, simply swipe left and right to switch between tickets when entering the stadium and scan each ticket individually to allow access to those in your party.

To gain access, hold your phone close to the contactless reader on top of the turnstile. The light will turn green for a valid adult ticket and amber for concessions or junior tickets.

If the light turns red, or you are unable to enter, a steward will be on hand at each turnstile to help with any issues.

STADIUM INFORMATION

The visitors’ section is located in the South East corner of Emirates Stadium. Everton fans will use entrances K and L. Turnstiles will open at 16:00pm and fans are encouraged to arrive as early as possible.

Security searches will take place on entry to the stadium and Arsenal advise supporters to arrive at least one hour before kick-off to assist with the process.

Refreshments are available at Emirates Stadium, and alcohol will be served on the concourse. Arsenal reserves the right to suspend the sale of alcohol if required. There are no cash machines inside Emirates Stadium and card payments are preferred at the kiosks.

Visiting fans are advised to drink away from the Islington area pre-match. There is no longer a designated ‘away pub’ in the area.

Flags and banners are allowed in the away section; however, there is a designated area where these can be displayed safely. Flags larger than 2x1 meters may be declined entry for this reason. Any flags and banners permitted into the stadium need to have evidence of a fire safety certificate upon entry. Flags must not contain anything considered to be offensive, discriminatory, defamatory or inflammatory, including politically motivated or nationalistic messaging. Any flags or banners that are displayed in areas that block exits, stairwells or other areas that could have a safety risk will be removed or relocated.

There is a no smoking policy at and around Emirates Stadium, including the podium level surrounding the stadium and the car parks. This also includes electronic cigarettes.

The maximum bag size is A4. All bags are searched and tagged prior to entry. There is no luggage facility at Emirates Stadium. For more information on safety and security at Emirates Stadium, please click here. A full list of prohibited items can be found here.

ACCESSIBLE INFORMATION

Accessible turnstiles are to the right-hand side of entrance K, and stewards will be in place to support.

On-street parking is available for Blue Badge holders either in dedicated Blue Badge bays or vacant residents’ bays. Please note that some of the Blue Badge bays in the area are specifically for the use of a designated local Blue Badge holder. It is advised that you arrive in the vicinity more than two hours before kick-off if you are seeking to secure a Blue Badge space. Please remember to clearly display both your Blue Badge and clock.

There are 37 accessible toilets located inside the stadium. All are fitted with RADAR locks, and all supervising stewards hold RADAR keys in case a supporter with an access requirement is not in possession of a key.

All the accessible toilets are unisex, and the toilet doors all open outwards. The dimensions of the accessible toilet are 180cm x 235cm (5ft 11in x 7ft 9in). Either a left or right transfer space is available in every accessible toilet, along with colour contrasted grab rails.

TRAVEL INFORMATION

Please be advised to check all travel routes prior to travelling to the game due to any unforeseen travel circumstances.

By Road: Leave the M1 at Junction 2 and go onto the A1, following the signs for City (Central London). Keep going on the A1 for around six miles, until you see Holloway Road Tube Station on your right. Take the next left at the traffic lights into Hornsey Road, and the stadium is about a quarter of a mile further down this road.

Parking: The Emirates is surrounded by residential streets, meaning those parking must have permits. Those parking illegally will be towed away. It is advised to avoid parking in the area.

Rail: King's Cross is the main connecting station for National Rail and many Underground lines. From here you can travel to the ground via the Piccadilly Line (to Arsenal) or the Victoria Line (to Highbury & Islington). King’s Cross station is wheelchair accessible.

Overground: Alternatively, a short- overground rail journey of one stop will take you to Finsbury Park station.

Please note: Holloway Road station will be exit-only before matches and closed for up to two hours after the match. Pre-match eastbound trains are non-stopping. Drayton Park is also closed on matchdays.

FAN BEHAVIOUR AND SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENT

Anti-Discrimination: Everton has a zero-tolerance stance on any discriminatory behavior and language used to travel to, from or during the match. We are committed and dedicated to embracing equality and diversity in everything that we do. We take this opportunity to remind supporters about the Club's ‘All Together Now’ campaign, which was launched to promote a ‘Football Family for Everyone’. We will not stop in our mission to drive equality through the positive power of football.

Possession or Use of Pyrotechnics: Everton does not condone the use of pyrotechnics under any circumstances. Any fan found using them will be subject to action by the Club and Police. Clubs use various techniques to detect the possession and use of pyrotechnics. Any person found in possession of such items is liable to arrest which could result in a criminal conviction and subsequent football banning order.

Pitch Encroachment: Encroachment on the playing surface is dangerous, and any supporter who does access the pitch without permission will face strong sanctions that could include a ban from attending matches across the country. It is a criminal offence to enter the field of play and the real-life consequences for these actions have been felt by many with some fans receiving criminal records which can impact employment, education prospects and international travel.

Anti-Social or Criminal Behaviour on Concourses: We ask all fans to consider fellow supporters while on the concourses. Any anti-social behaviour, such as beer throwing, can result in ejection from the stadium, or, in the case of more serious incidents, arrest and a subsequent nationwide stadium ban. The Club is compelled to work with the authorities to identify any individuals who take part in such unacceptable behaviours.

CCTV is available to clubs and law enforcement authorities and can be used as evidence in enforcing bans and criminal prosecution in the days and weeks after any incident has occurred, regardless of whether any perpetrators have been detained on a matchday or not.

Please enjoy your matchday and stay safe.

We would like to thank you for your continued support in protecting Everton Football Club's reputation and support in enhancing the matchday experience for all.
