Salford City are based at Moor Lane and have risen rapidly from non-league football into the EFL. The Ammies have a modern identity shaped by investment, ambition and their Greater Manchester location. Their compact ground and local support give them a different profile from many older Football League clubs.
The Peninsula Stadium, still often called Moor Lane, is a compact modernised ground in the Kersal area of Salford. It is one of the smaller stadiums in the EFL and has a very distinctive enclosed feel, with four low stands wrapped closely around the pitch.
The ground was heavily redeveloped after Salford City’s rise through the leagues. The stands are simple, tight and close to the playing surface, creating an intimate matchday feel. The West Stand is the main seated stand, while the other sides include terrace and smaller stand areas depending on ticket allocation.
The Peninsula Stadium is not a large or luxurious venue, but it is very close to the action and can feel intense when busy. Facilities are compact, queues can form quickly, and the surrounding streets are tight, so it is a ground where planning arrival and parking matters more than at bigger stadiums.
Away supporters normally access the stadium through Turnstile Block A on Moor Lane. Visiting supporters are usually placed on the East side of the ground, with away arrangements varying depending on ticket allocation and fixture demand.
The away section is compact, close to the pitch and can produce a strong atmosphere for a smaller following. Because the stadium is small, away allocations are limited compared with many League Two grounds, so advance ticket purchase through the visiting club is strongly recommended.
Salford’s official visiting supporter information confirms that away coaches should drop off and pick up at Moor Lane, and that three wheelchair user bays are allocated for visiting supporters. Away disabled tickets and wheelchair bays should be booked through the visiting club.

The Peninsula Stadium sits in a residential area, so parking is limited and needs planning. Supporters driving should check Salford’s matchday guidance and avoid parking inconsiderately on nearby streets.
Public transport is often the better option, with local buses and onward routes from Manchester and Salford. The stadium is not directly beside a main railway station, so supporters arriving by train should plan the final bus, taxi or walking route before travelling.
For neutral supporters, the main seated stand is usually the best option for comfort and view. The stadium is compact, so no area feels far from the pitch, but facilities are tighter than at larger grounds. Away fans should use the Moor Lane away entrance and arrive early, especially if collecting tickets or attending a higher-demand match.
Salford City tickets are sold through the club’s official ticketing channels, with online purchase recommended. Because the Peninsula Stadium is small by EFL standards, availability can be tighter for higher-profile fixtures.
Away supporters should normally buy through the visiting club once Salford has released the allocation. Salford’s visiting supporter information states that away wheelchair bays are booked through the visiting club, and disabled supporters pay the age-appropriate rate with an assistant or carer admitted free where eligibility is met.
For home neutrals, seated areas are usually the best choice for comfort. Supporters wanting the livelier feel should look towards the more vocal home sections, while away supporters should use the designated away allocation and should not rely on matchday sales unless confirmed.
Standard EFL ground regulations apply at the Peninsula Stadium. Supporters should expect checks around bags, alcohol, pyrotechnics, discriminatory behaviour, offensive chanting and entering the field of play.
Supporters should use the correct turnstile block for their ticket. Away fans normally enter through Turnstile Block A on Moor Lane, and steward instructions should be followed around segregation routes and fan zone areas.
Because the stadium is in a residential area with limited space around it, supporters should be respectful of local streets, avoid blocking access and follow coach drop-off or parking instructions. The compact nature of the stadium means queues can build quickly, so arriving early is sensible.
Salford City provide accessibility information for the Peninsula Stadium. The club’s supporter guide confirms same-level access at home entrances and through the away entrance for visiting supporters. Accessible toilets are available in the North Stand fan zone, near the South Stand entrance and in the away end fan zone.
Salford’s visiting supporter information confirms three wheelchair user bays for visiting supporters, booked through the visiting club. Disabled supporters pay the age-appropriate rate, with an assistant or carer admitted free for eligible supporters receiving the relevant disability benefit.
Away disabled supporters should arrange wheelchair bays, companion tickets, parking or drop-off details before matchday. The stadium is compact, which can help with distances once inside, but the surrounding streets and limited parking mean advance planning is important.
There does not appear to be a regular public stadium tour programme at the Peninsula Stadium. Salford City may occasionally provide behind-the-scenes access through community work, hospitality, school visits or special club events, but routine bookable stadium tours are not clearly advertised as a regular public offer.
Supporters interested in visiting behind the scenes should check directly with Salford City for any one-off opportunities rather than expecting standard tours.
