Pubs in the local vicinity are used by home supporters. We ask for your co-operation both in and around the local community and that you are respectful of the surrounding residential areas as drinking is not allowed in public areas across Greater Manchester.

Fans are prohibited from entering the Etihad Stadium with any pyrotechnics.

VIEW PROHIBITED ITEMS

Turnstiles open 2 hours before kick-off. Supporters under 14 must be accompanied by an adult (over 18). Any supporter that attempts to use an inactive ticket will be asked to leave the complex. 

There may be a request, in consultation with Greater Manchester Police, for visiting supporters to remain in the stadium for a short time whilst the immediate areas clear.

You will be informed of this during the match via PA announcements. We will ensure that you are able to exit the stadium as soon as possible, so that you may commence your return journey.

Lost Property

Please contact us on +44 (0)161 444 1894. Manchester City accepts no responsibility for loss/damage to property.

Items will be retained for 4-weeks. Supporters will be charged the postage for any items that cannot be collected from the stadium.

Backpacks, holdalls, rucksacks, or other similar items of any size, large or small, will not be allowed into the stadium. Small handheld bags, no larger than A4 size (12”x8”x3”) will be accepted. If you must bring a bag to the stadium that exceeds the allowable size, bag drop facilities (locations shown below) that you can use to securely store your items will be in place until the match has finished.

The bag drop will be priced at £10 per item. There is a bag drop on the 'Grey' car park, which is within the away fan compound.

Concessions will be open on the concourse until the end of half-time. The Etihad stadium is a cashless venue therefore cash will not be accepted.
