Broadfield Stadium is a compact, modern ground on Winfield Way, Crawley, RH11 9RX. Opened in 1997 after Crawley Town left Town Mead, it holds 6,134 and sits just off the A23, a couple of minutes from M23 junction 11. Look for the football sculpture on the nearby roundabout. For visiting supporters it is a straightforward, well-signed afternoon: covered standing behind one goal, a handful of seats if you prefer them, and short walks from free parking.
Away fans are housed in the North Terrace, a covered standing end that can take around 1,500–1,600 depending on the allocation, plus a segregated block of seats at the north end of the East Stand when demand or preference requires it. Turnstiles for the away end sit at the north-west corner. The South Terrace is home only and tends to generate the loudest local noise. The West Stand is the main seated side: offices, shop, changing rooms and hospitality sit behind it, and it runs only about two-thirds of the pitch, which is why the plan looks slightly offset. The East Stand, opened in 2012, is all-seated and covered along the full touchline.
Stadium parking itself is reserved for permit and season-ticket holders. Visiting drivers should use the free William Reed car park at Broadfield Park (RH11 9RT). Approach off the A23, watch for Broadfield Park on the left just after the pedestrian crossing, and take the path at the rear of that car park. It is two or three minutes to the south end of the ground and closes an hour after full time. A second free option is signposted on Brighton Road; from there an underpass leads to the north entrance in about five minutes. There are three away disabled bays at the stadium, first come first served — email [email protected] to request one. Blue badge holders park free if the badge is displayed.
Crawley station is the nearest rail stop, roughly a mile and a twenty-minute walk. Taxis wait outside; some are wheelchair accessible. Fastway 10 from Stop A at Crawley, or Fastway 20 from Three Bridges Stop C, drops you at the stadium. PlusBus can be added to rail tickets. Coaches are usually directed to the north end. Bags are limited to one per person and should be no larger than A4.
A dedicated Away Fan Zone now sits next to the away turnstiles at the north end, open before kick-off and at half-time, with hot food, soft drinks and alcohol. Inside the ground the usual pies, burgers and chips appear at kiosks. Redz Bar behind the South Terrace is the club’s social bar. It is aimed at families and home supporters but sensible visiting fans without colours on display are often welcomed; treat it as a privilege rather than a right. Nearby pubs that regularly host away supporters include The New Moon on Brighton Road (RH10 6SZ) and The Downsman on Wakehurst Drive (RH10 6DH). Both are a short walk rather than a crawl.
Collect any physical tickets from the portacabin opposite the club shop. Facilities in the away end are basic but clean; queues build just before kick-off so arrive with time to spare. Views from the North Terrace are close to the pitch under a low roof that helps the noise. If you are not at the front of a shallow terrace, standing a few rows back still works because the ground is small. Stewards are generally helpful. Check crawleytownfc.com before you travel: allocations, kick-off times and which part of the East Stand is open to visitors can change fixture by fixture. Done right, Broadfield is one of the easier EFL away days — park for free, walk five minutes, and you are behind the goal.
