Etihad Stadium Seating
The Family Stand/North Stand: This is the only section of the stadium that is still two-tiered and can be found behind the goal. The North Stand has since been renamed The Family Stand and provides a popular seating area for Man City ticket holders with children.
Football Ticket Pad has a variety of tickets available in this section in both the lower and upper tiers, and they can be found listed as Shortside Lower and Shortside Upper for all matches at The Etihad Stadium. Fans can also take a walk along Joe Mercer Way upon arriving at the stadium to soak up the atmosphere.
Colin Bell Stand: Following the 2002 Commonwealth Games, this was originally a two-tier stand that has since had a third tier added due to increased ticket demand. The Colin Bell Stand is the Main Stand at the Etihad, which houses the dressing rooms, tunnel, and technical area.
The stand contains the Club’s main offices, the Boardroom and Mancunian Suites, and media facilities. The Colin Bell Stand is also where the player entrance is located outside the stadium, allowing fans to catch a glimpse of their favourite players entering the ground on matchday.
East Stand: Similar to the Colin Bell Stand, the East Stand has been transformed into a three-tier construction to house more Man City supporters. These Longside Lower and Longside Upper Manchester City tickets offer fantastic, unrestricted views and also house extensive corporate facilities such as the Citizens Suites and 93:20.
South Stand: This is where the most vocal Man City supporters sit, with a designated singing section in blocks: 111, 114, and 115–119. There is plenty of atmosphere in this section of the Etihad, and it is where the away fans are housed behind the goal.
Away section tickets can be bought for each game in the Premier League, guaranteeing you a great day out in Manchester amongst your fellow travellers. The South Stand also hosts the Legends Lounge for fans interested in securing more premium seats.
