Fans' Guide | Swansea City (H)
Tickets for this match are completely sold out and Steven Schumacher's men will once again be backed by a packed Home Park Stadium.
Turnstiles will open two hours before kick-off with supporters advised to enter through the turnstile identified on their match ticket. However, if neighbouring turnstiles have shorter queues, supporters are permitted to enter these to speed up access to the stadium.
If you can no longer make the game, please aim to utilise our Ticket Exchange which gives season-ticket holders the ability to sell their designated seat at face value to other supporters. Season-ticket holders will have until three hours prior to kick-off to repost their tickets. If they sell, then their ticket account will be credited with the respective value.
The Beacon Electrical Mayflower Grandstand Fan Zone will open from 1pm for this fixture.
This has been introduced to continue to improve the matchday experience for the loyal Green Army and provide further services for those fans who like to get into Home Park early.
There will be live music from The Busketeers in the fan zone from 1:30pm until 2:30pm, with a magician also making a special appearance between 1 and 3pm. Blink and you might miss them!
The Fan Zone will also serve further food and drink options, provide seating and undercover areas as well as television screens.
Our mascot Pilgrim Pete will once again make their way around Home Park Stadium welcoming the Green Army for the afternoon.
Fans will have the chance to meet him at 1.30pm in the Argyle Superstore and between 1:50pm and 2pm in the Beacon Electrical Mayflower Grandstand Fan Zone.
Pilgrim Pete will then be making his way around the inside of the stadium from 2pm onwards until kick off.
Pilgrim Pete will be giving away a limited number of kids “Green” boxes to young supporters, free of charge, in the Beacon Electrical Mayflower Grandstand Fan Zone and in the Lower Mayflower Grandstand itself ahead of kick off.
Young Argyle fans are encouraged to keep their eyes peeled for Pilgrim Pete to get their hands on one!
Plymouth Argyle recognises the importance of, and is committed to, minimising our environmental footprint. A key aspect of the club’s environmental plan is to make travel to and from Home Park on match-days sustainable, by making public transport options as accessible as possible, and by supporting and encouraging supporters to use transport options with the lowest environmental impact.
To see how you can support us with this and for all the information you need to make your travel arrangements as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible, please see our travel guide, here.
Outland Road Car Park, adjacent to Home Park is a very large – and free! – car park. It is council-run, and is typically a park-and-ride car park into the city. It is free to use on match-days, but will obviously begin to fill up very early for many fixtures, especially local derbies, Bank Holiday fixtures, etc.
Additional street parking is available surrounding Home Park, but please be mindful of local residents, park sensibly, and be aware of any parking restrictions and permit areas. Considerations should include:
- Don’t park on double yellow lines
- Please avoid dropped kerbs in front of people’s houses
- Please avoid parking on junctions
- Please display a blue badge if you have one
There are also several large pay and display car parks in the city centre, which is within walking distance of Home Park, but not advised for those who struggle to walk beyond short distances.

Our new half time challenge will continue for today's match against Swansea City.
Each league game the club will pick two fans to play, who will get one attempt each to try and pass the ball as close to the centre spot as possible from the halfway line touchline. The distance away from the centre circle will then be measured, and we will keep a running leaderboard over the course of the season.
At the final league game, the top three overall on the leaderboard will return to participate in the grand final, where each participant will take part again. Whoever is closest to the centre spot in the grand final will take home a cash prize of £1,000.

Supporters should be prepared to be searched by our security team as they enter the stadium.
Wherever possible, we will ensure that 'wand' searches are also undertaken by members of the same gender. If that is not the case upon entry, and you feel at all uncomfortable, please raise this with a member of the security team - who will make the necessary arrangements.
As with all major sporting events, bringing bags to the stadium is actively discouraged. However, fans arriving at Home Park with a small personal bag (for example, medical bags or handbags) capable of being stowed under seats is permitted. Please note, supporters should expect this to be searched before entry.
We ask that supporters arrive in plenty of time to avoid queues forming as kick-off approaches.
