What's the ground like?
Pride Park is a excellent venue with no restricted views. Its is a modern stadium and was built in 1997. The stadium is located about 2miles from the City Center in some of Derbys industrial wasteland.
Its a very clean stadium and all what you would expect from a top tier football ground.
Directions
Leave the M1 at junction 25. At the roundabout, take the first left signposted Derby (A52). Stay on this road, for 5 miles, following the signs for the city center.
Look out for the signs for the Pride park, and the signs for the travel lodge on your left. Take the next left into Wyvern shopping center. and continue to the traffic island. Take the first exit over the bridge, into pride park, and the stadium is on the left.
Parking

There is no match day parking in the area of the stadium. Away fans are 'encouraged' to park in the 600-space supervised car park at Wilmorton College, on the A6 going into Derby from the south.
With the new link road now open away supporters no longer walk along the river path. its just a 10 min walk down the link road, although on a sunny day, this is still an option.

Where to drink

The Navigation -
This pub is located on london road next to wilmorton college, and is where all the away fans go on a match day.
The Beer Barrel -
This pub is located in Osmaston Road (...near the Russell street car park). This pub is usually inhabited by the away fans, but it's small & busy so you'll need to get there early. Stadium Guide in partnership with Project Football |
