We are delighted to welcome supporters old a new to the Fan Zone at SJP. If it is your first visit please find one of our Ambassadors or go to the Information Point for help, information and directions.

Getting to SJP

Getting to SJP on match days (EX4 6PX – visiting fans EX4 6PU) cannot be easier.  Stage coach buses drop off in Sidwell Street , Old Tiverton Road. Pinhoe Road Pennsylvania Road and Union Road. All less than a minute from the Stadium. Remember that there is the special £2 maximum single fare from our friends at Stagecoach.

Travelling by car offers Park & Ride from the City outskirts and a host of car parks for those travelling into the City centre. For this who prefer on road parking most of the local roads are resident only parking.  Please park considerately if you find a space.

There are extra train services from St David’s direct to St James Park Exeter. Added to the normal South Devon to Exmouth direct service picking up at St David’s  services from North Devon and Okehampton will be continued through to (and start their return journeys from) St James Park.

Cycling to the Park offers bike stands at the ground or nearby in Sidwell Street.

St James Park has plenty on offer pre-matched to keep the whole family entertained and to make sure your St James Park experience is extra special.
