[Spectrum Arena] [Entrance Fees] Season Tickets] [Membership Scheme] [Match Day Programme] [Directions]

 Spectrum

Guildford City FC play at the Spectrum arena, part of the Guildford Spectrum leisure centre complex. Supporter access is via the pay booth in the corner of the ground, near to the overflow car park. Facilities include a small seated covered stand on the upper level. At the time of writing this side of the ground is the only one open to spectators. Fans must stay behind the barriers at all times, all other areas of the stadium is strictly out of bounds including the running track.

During the course of season 2008/09 the club, with the assistance of Guildford Borough Council, plan to enhance Spectrum arena to step 4 standard. This will include, amongst other things, turnstiles, on-site clubhouse, new toilets and dressing rooms. Work will hopefully be completed by the end of season ground grading inspection. Full story as broken by The Surrey Advertiser here.
