Sloper Road | Temporary road closure

Supporters should be aware that Sloper Road will be temporarily closed for approximately 20 minutes after the full-time whistle.

This measure will come into force 15 minutes before the end of the match.

Cardiff City fans will be unable to travel along Sloper Road in the direction of Penarth Road during this period.

Bristol City fans must turn right only upon exiting Cardiff City Stadium, towards Penarth Road, the City Centre parking areas and Cardiff Central train station. Away supporters will not be able to travel along Sloper Road in the direction of Leckwith Road during this period.

The decision to limit movement post-match was taken by South Wales Police in the interest of public safety. Every effort will be made to keep to the above timescale, but supporters should be aware that these timings are not fixed, and will be determined by South Wales Police.

All supporters will be able to walk down Sloper Road from the Grangetown area ahead of the match.

Level Playing Field | Bluebirds support Unite For Access

We are supporting Level Playing Field and asking all supporters to 'Unite For Access’ at this weekend's fixture.

An estimated 22% of the UK population are disabled, making disabled people the largest minority group in the UK.

Still, many disabled sports fans feel that attending live sports is not possible, due to the environmental and societal barriers that disabled football fans face, which make matchdays inaccessible.

Match Sponsors | Heineken

We’d like to welcome our match sponsors for the Severnside derby, Heineken!

 The world's most international brewer! Heineken's proud history as a family-owned, independent brewer stretches back 150 years.

Love Football. Protect the Game.

The FA, Premier League and EFL are together introducing new measures and stronger sanctions across the game to tackle the increased anti-social and criminal behaviours recently seen within football grounds and underline the importance of a safe matchday environment. 

 The new set of actions, which will be implemented across all English football leagues from the start of Season 2022/23 and backed by the Football Supporters’ Association, will target activity such as entering the pitch without permission, carrying or using smoke bombs or pyrotechnics and throwing objects - as well as drug use and discriminatory behaviour.  

These acts are dangerous, illegal and have severe consequences. They have no place in football, or anywhere.

Any supporters who experience or witness any anti-social behaviour, directly or indirectly, should contact us by emailing slo@cardiffcityfc.co.uk or texting 07554 158224, giving as much detail as possible (including row, seat number and a description of the incident).

Using video evidence and stewarding practices, we will do our utmost to identify anti-social individuals and ensure that they are no longer able to attend Cardiff City fixtures and are reported to the Police. We do not consider them supporters of our Club.

Together Against Discrimination

Football is for everyone. We might support different teams, but football unites and inspires us. It is a game with many opinions. But there is one on which we should all agree.

Racism and discrimination is not welcome in our game. So if you hear it, report it - whether in the street, at Cardiff City Stadium or online.

And when you see players taking the knee ahead of the game as a simple and peaceful act of protest this season, please respect their choice.

Because we are all Together Against Discrimination.

Kick-Off

Our Severnside clash kicks-off at 12:30pm!

See you at CCS, Bluebirds!
