Springfield Stadium

Springfield Stadium is an Art Nouveau stadium in Saint Helier, Jersey, designed to accommodate up to 7000 spectators during sporting events. The main grandstand provides 992 seats while additional viewing areas expand the overall capacity.

The Royal Jersey Agricultural and Horticultural Society purchased the land in 1884 to establish a permanent venue for livestock exhibitions. The site gradually transformed from its agricultural purpose into a modern venue for diverse events.

The venue served as a center for agricultural displays in its early years and now functions as a gathering place for the local community hosting sports events and public assemblies. Visitors can experience how the Art Nouveau design sits alongside its contemporary role as a multipurpose venue.

The facility features a gym open daily and multiple meeting spaces for events, along with a cafe serving refreshments during daytime hours. Visitors should note that facility access depends on the event schedule and day of the week.

During preparations for occupation in World War Two, many Jersey residents parked their vehicles on the grounds, seeing it as a secure storage location. This lesser-documented chapter shows how the venue played an unexpected role during times of crisis.
