Stadium

The match takes place at the York Community Stadium, a modern ground that is the perfect size for a club the size of the Knights.

The stadium, which also goes by the name of the LNER Stadium due to a sponsorship agreement, is made up of four separate stands.

3 of the stands are relatively modest ones but the final stand, which acts as the main stand at the ground, and that runs the full length of the field, features a large bank of general access seating, with some corporate seating in the middle and corporate hospitality at the rear of the stand.

The East Stand also houses the media facilites at the ground which when full can house 8,500 fans and for a match between two closely located teams such as this all-Yorkshire battle, there should be a bumper crowd in attendance and a great atmosphere.

Location

The city of York, one of the United Kingdom’s leading tourist cities, is located in North Yorkshire and just on the edge of the sport’s traditional heartlands of the sport along the M62 corridor.

The stadium itself is located in the Huntingdon district of the city, the traditional home of the Knights and more specifically on the Monks Cross shopping and entertainment complex.

That gives the stadium part of its unique look as part of one stand is built into a large cinema complex and it also makes it easy for fans to get to when travelling from afar as it sits just off of the A64 coastal trunk road.

The ground is also next to a large park and ride, which makes it easy to get in and out of the city for those wanting to make a weekend of it in the city of York.
