WeAreBrighton.com - Amex Stadium

After over a decade of planning battles, the American Express Community Stadium was finally opened in July 2011, giving Brighton and Hove Albion a permanent home just the 14 years after the Goldstone Ground was sold to developers by an asset stripping owner.

The Amex has quickly gained a reputation as one of the best places in the country to watch football. Here is our guide to the stadium.

The Amex Stadium
The Amex Stadium page features reviews of each of the four stands inside the ground, the best places to sit and what you can expect to find on each concourse of the stadium. It is the ultimate guide to what goes on inside the stadium bowl.
Transport
Driving straight to the stadium is a bit of a no-no with severely limited parking in and around the Falmer area and what there is is frankly charged at an obscene price. We take a look at the best ways to make your way to and from The Amex.
Eating and Drinking
Brighton and Hove Albion seemed to have been linked to re-signing every player who has worn the stripes in the last 10 years this summer. So we've put together a list of the top 20 that we feel could make a real difference to the Albion on their returns for 2015/16. Free of charge to you, Mr Hughton.
Construction
Having waited for so long for the stadium to built, there was a keener than usual interest taken in it's construction. Between August 2009 and the opening in June 2011, we paid 15 visits to the site at Falmer documenting each stage of the building of the ground.
