The away support will be seated in the East Stand and enter via turnstiles 10, 11 and 12. Wheelchair users should enter via a dedicated entrance at the east stand.

Like all Scottish grounds, searching is a condition of entry and there is a zero tolerance policy as regards abuse or anti-social behaviour.

Flags and banners are welcome provided they are presented for inspection at the point of entry. Flag poles and flag surfing is not permitted. An area for banners and flags will be provided and can be placed under the direction of the stewards.

Entry is pay at the gate and prices are: £17 for adults, £11 for concessions (over 60 and 12-16 year olds and proof is required), and £5 for children under-12. Wheelchair users pay concession prices while carers are free.

Check Traffic Scotland website before travel. https://trafficscotland.org/currentincidents

Travel by Rail: OPTION 1: Greenock to Glasgow Central and change for train Edinburgh Haymarket then a further change for train to Dunfermline. Please check times as Glasgow Central to Edinburgh service is not frequent.

OPTION 2: Greenock to Glasgow Central. Glasgow Queen Street to Edinburgh Haymarket and change for train to Dunfermline.

The train station is around a 15 to 20 minute walk to the stadium, and all in, the journey will take over two hours. For example, the train leaving Greenock Central at 11.02am will get you in to Dunfermline at 1.50pm.

Parking

The away parking can be found off Leys Park Road and this will give direct access to the East Stand, and buses are £7 while cars are £2.

There is no easy alternation for bus parking. Cars uses may find on-street parking difficult. There is some space available on Cemetery Road and this involves a 15-minute walk through the cemetery.

There are car parks in Dunfermline town centre, but, again, this is a 15-minute walk and town centre car parks are likely to be very bust with Christmas shoppers.
