Stadium
The match takes place at the York Community Stadium, also known as the LNER Stadium, which is a modern all-seater stadium in the Huntington district of the city of York.
The stadium is made up of one main ‘grandstand’ that runs the full length of the field and that houses all of the stadiums corporate facilites whilst the other sides of the pitch have smaller single-tier stand.
That all comes together to house around 8,500 when full and with a big away following likely in attendance for a derby match up such as this one, the stands should be packed leading to the perfect setting for a match up such as this one.
As well as hosting the Knights and the cities football club, the stadium has also proven a popular choice for international test matches where many women’s matches have been held at the ground including big matches at the Rugby League World Cup when hosted in the UK.
A record crowd for the ground was made when Hull KR and the Catalans Dragons met at the stadium in the Challenge Cup in 2025.
Location
The York Knights are based in the North Yorkshire city of York, the historic capital city of the ceremonial county of Yorkshire.
More specifically, they are based in the Huntington district of the city that up until relatively recently was a small village just off of the main A64 trunk road that really wasn’t anywhere other than those who lived there would need to visit.
Now it is a big hub of the city that hosts the large Monks Cross retail and entertainment park that also houses a large park and ride facility for the popular tourist destination of York.
It is in the entertainment area of Monks Cross where the club’s stadium is found.
