Park Avenue, Football stadium in Aberystwyth, Wales.
Park Avenue is a football stadium in Aberystwyth, Wales, with two covered stands on either side of an artificial 4G pitch. It holds around 2,500 spectators and is the main ground for football in this part of mid-Wales.
Aberystwyth Town FC was founded in 1884 and played at several grounds around town before settling at Park Avenue. Over the following decades the ground hosted major Welsh cup finals and served as a stepping stone for young players who went on to play for their national sides.
Park Avenue is home to Aberystwyth Town FC, and on match days the small stands fill with local supporters who follow the team closely. The compact size of the ground brings fans close to the pitch, making the experience feel personal rather than distant.
The stadium is within walking distance of Aberystwyth town centre, train station and bus stops, so getting there on foot is straightforward. Those arriving by car will find parking on site, though arriving early on match days is a good idea as spaces fill up quickly.
Park Avenue received UEFA Category 2 certification in 2021, which allows it to host European club competition matches. This places it among a small number of grounds in mid-Wales that meet that level of standard.
