Disabled Supporters
Norwich City look forward to welcoming you to Carrow Road! Our aim is for Norwich City to be ‘a home for everyone’ and we have a variety of facilities and services which have been designed to accommodate supporters with disabilities to be able to come and watch matches. A full outline of these can be found in our Access Statement which provides a full guide to visiting Carrow Road as a disabled supporter and can be downloaded below:
On this page, you will also find a summary of these facilities, alongside contact details for the relevant teams within the club, should you need to ask any questions before your visit.
Ticket Purchasing
Accessible tickets can be purchased by calling our Ticket Office on 01603 721902 (Option 1) or in person at our club shops. They cannot currently be purchased online.
In order to buy a ticket you will need to have a supporter number which will be allocated to you when you create a OneCity account on our website or can also be done when calling the Ticket Office.
Season Tickets
Unfortunately, we are currently sold out of season tickets within our accessible areas. To join the waiting list, please call the Ticket Office on 01603 721902 (Option 1)
Membership & Ticket On-Sale Dates
Tickets go on sale at various points throughout the season, with priority being given to those who are Home Membership holders. More information on Membership can be found online HERE.
Buy-Backs
If you are a season ticket holder and cannot attend a home fixture, please contact the Ticket Office on 01603 721902 (option 1) or go online HERE so that your ticket can be re-sold to someone else. You will receive credit into your account if this happens.
Personal Assistants
We are proud to be able to provide a ticket for a personal assistant, where required, free of charge. This is based on the understanding that the assistant is providing a service to the disabled supporter, to enable them to access our matchday facilities. Personal assistants must also always attend the match with the disabled supporter that they are assisting and cannot attend a game on this ticket by themselves. These complimentary personal assistant tickets are only available within the designated accessible areas of the stadium.
In order to request a personal assistant ticket alongside your own ticket, please call the Ticket Office on 01603 721902 (Option 1) or make this known at the time of booking your tickets.
Getting to Carrow Road
Full information on Getting to Carrow Road can be found on our website HERE and within our Access Guide.
Car Parking
On matchdays, no parking is available at Carrow Road. Blue badge holder parking can be found on neighbouring residential streets such as Kerrison Road (NR1 1JB). The Blue Badge scheme is managed by Norwich City Council who can be reached via phone on 0344 980 3333 or online HERE.
Drop-Off
The entrance of the Holiday Inn, located between the South Stand and Barclay Stand can be used by supporters as a drop-off point.
Our Mobility Buggy travels around the stadium on matchdays and can be flagged down by supporters who require onward travel support from the Holiday Inn to their turnstile.
Mobility Bus from County Hall
A new minibus service between County Hall car park and Carrow Road has been launched on matchdays. This service, which is a collaboration between Norwich City, The Canaries Trust, Norwich Door to Door, Norfolk County Council, Age UK Norwich, Inclusive Norwich Partnership and Age Friendly Norwich, is for anyone who has mobility issues and may find it challenging to get from the car park to the stadium.
The bus costs £4 return (plus £2 for a personal assistant/carer if required) and leaves County Hall 90 minutes before kick-off. Supporters will be dropped off outside the Holiday Inn, which is also where they will be picked up from after the match. Supporters using the bus will be charged a reduced amount (£2) for parking, making their total cost the same as other car park users.
More information on this, as well as how to book, can be found on Norwich Door to Door’s website at the link below.

Viewing Areas

The Joma ‘Ability Counts’ gallery is an inside viewing area, located on Level 2 of the Joma Community Stand in the corner of the stadium. It is behind glass, with heating available when necessary. The gallery can be accessed step-free via a dedicated lift and has accessible toilets fitted with RADAR key access. Within the area is a large refreshment area which has a lowered counter.
Outdoor Joma Community Stand Platform
18 wheelchair user bays + 18 personal assistants
The outdoor Joma Community Stand platform is located on Level 1 of the Joma Community Stand in the corner of the stadium. As with the indoor space this can be accessed step-free via a dedicated lift and also has access to RADAR key toilets and refreshments.

Sensory Room – The Sanctuary powered by ROARR!
We are proud to be able to offer a dedicated sensory room within the stadium. The Sanctuary powered by ROARR! is a quiet space, filled with specialist sensory room equipment, for up to 2 groups to use on a matchday. The room itself features a light up storm tube, fibre optic lights, a vibrating bean bag, infinity mirror, light up mat and interactive projector. It also contains sensory packs for supporters to use on the day.
The room itself is located on Level 2 of the Joma Community Stand and has access to the indoor disability viewing platform. Supporters using the room can choose to watch the game from the television inside the sensory room, or from the flip-down seats at the back of the indoor disability platform and are free to roam between the two.
Access to this room will be free of charge for the 2025/26 season but supporters are required to book this space by filling out the form below. You do not need to already have a match ticket for your chosen game in order to book.
Please note that the room is not staffed and parents/guardians/personal assistants will be required to supervise those that use the room. The room itself is accessible via lift, but needs to be accessed by a standard width door and therefore may not be suitable for larger wheelchairs.
For any queries on the room, or the booking process, please email accessibility@canaries.co.uk
Other Facilities for Disabled Supporters
Match Buddies / Access Volunteers
Our accessibility volunteers are here to provide a ‘match buddy’ service to both home and away supporters who have any accessibility needs on a matchday. They can be found wearing green hi-vis jackets within our accessible viewing areas and will do all they can to help give everyone the best possible matchday experience.
The team can provide the following support during your visit:
- Escorting supporters to and from their seats before and after games
- Escorting supporters to accessible toilet facilities
- Assisting with the use of our Soccer Sight commentary system
- Providing ponchos during bad weather
If you require assistance from this team, please contact the Ticket Office in advance of your visit via 01603 721902 (option 1) or tickets@canaries.co.uk.
Soccer Sight
We can provide live matchday commentary for visually impaired supporters via our Soccer Sight commentary service. Please contact the Ticket Office on 01603 721902 (option 1) or tickets@canaries.co.uk ahead of your visit to book this service. A member of our accessibility team will then ensure that you are provided with a set of headphones and a receiver in order to access this during the match.
Our commentators pride themselves on being able to give as much detail as possible in order to provide a descriptive and immersive service.
Mobility Buggy
Carrow Road has a mobility buggy that is available for supporters to flag down before and after matches. The buggy does not have a designated route but will lap the stadium and can be flagged down by any supporters who need assistance getting around the stadium.
When speaking to the driver, please let them know where your entry point or turnstile is so that you can be dropped off as close to this location as possible.
Accessible Toilets
Accessible toilets are available throughout the stadium. Within specific accessible viewing areas these are all fitted with RADAR key access.
Changing Places Toilet
Located on Level 2 of the Joma Community Stand, and new for 2025/26, is our Changing Places Toilet facility. Fully funded by the club, this provides a safe, hygienic, and dignified place for supporters who may not be able to use a standard accessible toilet. It contains a hoist, adult sized changing bench, accessible toilet, adjustable height washbasin and privacy screen and more information can be found on the Changing Places website here.
Supporters in other areas of the stadium can gain access to this on a matchday too, by speaking to a matchday steward.
