With tickets purchased in advance, please present your valid ticket at turnstile 4, either printed or shown on a smartphone. We ask that you please have this ready before entering to avoid long queues forming.
We will be opening Arbour Park earlier than usual and will be screening the Manchester United v Leeds United game in the bar (kick-off 12.30pm). Access is via the main front entrance at Arbour Park, not the turnstiles. There will be no access to the rest of Arbour Park from the bar area.
The turnstiles (1 and 4) will open from around 1.30pm. Turnstile 1 is to the left of the ground as approached from the front, and turnstile 4 to the right.
Arbour Park does not have ATMs on site. Credit and debit cards are accepted at Turnstile 4, the Club Shop and main bar in the West Stand.
Please note that no smoking or vaping is permitted inside Arbour Park. Anyone wishing to smoke can get their hand stamped by a steward at the exit gates and be allowed back in afterwards.
Supporters in wheelchairs, or with mobility issues should enter Arbour Park via the front entrance.
Season tickets
Season tickets can be collected from the turnstiles. Any uncollected Season tickets will be posted on Monday.
Junior Rebels can collect their replica shirts from the Club Shop.
Parking
A limited amount of free parking will be available at Arbour Park and Lynch Hill Enterprise Academy. Please note that the car park at St Joseph’s School is open to parking permit holders only. It will be open from around 1.30pm to 2.45pm and then after the game for cars to leave.

Off street parking is extremely limited - however there are several car parks within walking distance. We would strongly encourage supporters to car-share or travel by public transport where possible. The ground is conveniently situated approximately half a mile from the train and bus stations. There are many public car parks nearer the town centre which are within walking distance of Arbour Park (10-15 minutes). Arbour Park is conveniently situated approximately half a mile from Slough’s train and bus stations. Click here for a map of local car parks within walking distance of Arbour Park.
If you do park in residential streets, please be respectful to our neighbours – keep noise to a minimum, and do not litter. When parking, do not block entranceways and driveways, and do not park dangerously, including on blind corners.
Food and drink
The bar and kitchen area on the first floor of the West Stand, and the tea bar on the ground floor of the West Stand will be open to all supporters, selling a range of hot and cold food and drinks.
We will also have a second bar open inside the ground near turnstile 1 selling alcohol and snacks.
The club shop will also be open, giving supporters the chance to purchase our new silver away shirt as well as many other items.
Seating
Many of the seats in the West Stand are reserved for those supporters with reserved seating. All other seating is unreserved and available on a first come, first served basis.
Ground regulations
Please be aware that in line with the latest Government event safety advice, searches of bags and coats will take place. Anyone in possession of pyrotechnics or other objects such as flares, smoke bombs or bangers will be refused entry. Any anti-social behaviour will be taken very seriously, and CCTV is in place at the ground to monitor behaviour and record events. Any acts of criminal damage or vandalism, including but not limited to the throwing of objects onto the pitch, will result in immediate ejection from the ground and prosecution.
