FIRST TIME VISITORS TO KENILWORTH ROAD
Ten things you need to know before you leave home.
1: WHERE IS KENILWORTH ROAD?
Kenilworth Road is in the Bury Park area of Luton a few minutes by foot outside of Luton Town centre. Parking at Kenilworth Road is strictly limited, and unfortunately parking is unavailable to standard ticketholders. We’d recommend parking at Power Court, or one of the other town centre car parks and either taking a bus from Luton Station to Clifton Road on the Luton to Dunstable Busway, or walking to Kenilworth Road – which should take about 10 minutes.
PLEASE NOTE: Kenilworth Road is now a cashless stadium. We accept contactless payments and card purchases at our shop, ticket office and refreshment kiosks.

Luton is approximately 30 minutes from London to the South and 20 minutes from Bedford to the North. Alight at Luton Town Station.
Arriva the Shires run a many local bus services that run into the town centre.

2: HOW CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET?
It’s very easy to purchase a ticket online using our online ticketing portal, but our ticket office is open from 10:00am to 5pm Monday to Friday and from 9am on matchdays. You can call the ticket office on 01582 416976, or email ticketoffice@lutontown.co.uk
3) WHERE SHOULD WE SIT?
Wherever you sit at Kenilworth Road, you’ll get a fantastic matchday experience.
If you’re coming to a match with younger children, you may prefer to sit in the Kenilworth Lower stand, which is our designated family stand. If you’re bringing a child for the first time, please do let the ticket office know, and we’ll present them with a special ‘My First Luton Town Match’ scarf too.
If you’re after a lively atmosphere around you, then we’d recommend sitting in the Oak Road end, or Blocks F and G in the main stand where there’s plenty of noise!
4) WHEN DO THE TURNSTILES OPEN?
The turnstiles open 90 minutes before kick-off. If you’re not sure which turnstile to go through, please ask a steward or one of our ‘Here to Help’ volunteers who will be able to assist you.
5) WHAT FOOD & DRINK IS AVAILABLE?
There are plenty of food and drinks kiosks all around the ground offering traditional matchday snacks and hot food and beverages at affordable prices. Please click here to see the full list of prices around the ground.
Free fresh fruit is also available at all kiosks on request.
On the Kenilworth apron we have a wide variety of freshly cooked food options, the Kenilworth food court can be found next to the press gate in Kenilworth Road and Vegan and Vegetarian options are also available at selected kiosks.
6) CAN I PURCHASE MERCHANDISE AT THE GROUND?
We have a Club shop at the top of Kenilworth Road, which stocks replica kit, leisure-wear, training-wear, coats, hats, scarves gifts and souvenirs – including some pocket-money items for children. We also have a larger store in Park Street, Luton Town Centre and an online store at shop.lutontown.co.uk.
7) WHERE SHOULD WE GO FOR AUTOGRAPHS?
The players usually arrive around one and a half to two hours before kick-off, and enter the ground via the main entrance in Maple Road signing autographs as they arrive. There is a designated area for HOME supporters to stand to collect autographs next to the entrance of the Maple Road East car park.
The players warm up ahead of the game approximately 45 minutes before kick-off, players often take a moment to sign autographs after the warm-up by the water tower (Kenilworth Road End) and also by the tunnel (main stand).
