Matchday Box Office
There are 10 windows and there is a queuing system which is managed by stewards during busy times. However, supporters who are unable to stand can avoid the queue by asking to use the window on the far left of the Box Office (just inside the door to the Media Entrance) which also has a lowered counter for wheelchair users.
The ticket collection point is located on podium level opposite turnstile block S. There is level access to the ticket collection point.
Please note that the Ticket Collection Point is for pre-arranged ticket and duplicate ticket collection only.
Entering the Stadium
The outer gates are operated by supporters inserting their membership card/ticket/phone into a card reader. Stewards are on hand to assist if required. Once inside, the inner gate will then be opened to allow access into the lower tier concourse.
Accessible entrances can be used by all fans that would benefit from this facility, and not just those registered with us as disabled.
For example, if you have a temporary disability, or find using turnstiles challenging. Please note that the club advises all supporters to arrive at Emirates Stadium in good time due to security checks on entry.
Lift Access
The lifts are located at the following core areas: A/B, C/D, E/F (which has two lifts available), G/H, J/K, L/M, N/P and R/S.
All lifts are stewarded on match days and supporters with access requirements always have priority. Additionally, E/F and N/P lifts are designated for supporters with access requirements only.
All lifts have visual floor indicators, an audible announcer, hearing loops and tactile markings on the control buttons.
Accessible Viewing Areas
There are 11 accessible viewing areas for home supporters who are wheelchair users and 2 areas for visiting wheelchair users. The areas are all accessed via ramps (stewards are on hand to assist, if required). Please note that in some areas the Personal Assistant will be sat behind the wheelchair user. In most areas the Personal Assistant is sat beside the wheelchair user. Upper Tier There are 8 accessible viewing areas for wheelchair users on the upper tier, all of which are for home supporters except for FA Cup games where the away club takes the increased allocation.
The areas are all accessed by ramps (stewards are on hand to assist if required) and the Personal Assistant’s seating is located next to the wheelchair users. Club Level There are three accessible viewing areas for wheelchair users on Club Level which are for home supporters only. There is level access via double doors from inside the Club Level bar and restaurant areas. The doors are manually operated and quite heavy (stewards are on hand to assist if required). The Personal Assistant’s seating is located next to the wheelchair users.
Easy Access & Ambulant Disabled Supporter Seating is generally located in the rows immediately in front of the Lower Tier and Upper Tier wheelchair accessible viewing areas as this means that supporters have level access from the concourse and one or two steps down to their seats.
Partially sighted and ambulant disabled supporters can sometimes be allocated adjacent Personal Assistant seats on the Lower Tier wheelchair accessible viewing areas.
