Ibrox Stadium seating?

Since Ibrox hasn't had a renovation in several decades, the seats aren't the most comfortable or spacious. Saying that, they are completely tolerable and you'd forget all about it during an exciting game. Tickets cost up to £30 per game for prime seats, though offers are usually available for families or dedicated home fans. The views are fairly good throughout, so the "best seats” really just depend on the angle from which you enjoy watching the game.

Best restaurants near Ibrox Stadium?

Ibrox actually has quite a fancy restaurant on-site, the Argyle House Restaurant. It's perfect for enjoying a delicious meal on matchday. However, lots of fans enjoy getting out of the stadium (without going too far!) to grab their dinner. The GoGrill is just 0.3 miles from Ibrox and truly delicious British cuisine at a really fair price. It's a lovely restaurant with really friendly staff – definitely my top recommendation.

What to expect from the Ibrox Stadium crowd?

During their time outside of the Scottish Premiership, there was an aura of 'meh' about the supporters. They didn't want to be playing 3rd tier teams, and they let it show. However, now back in the top flight, Rangers seem desperate to prove that are still the best team in Scotland. The fans are loud, raucous and have been known to cause a bit of trouble now and then, especially during the old firm. Keep your club colours hidden until you're in your seat, to make sure you avoid an incident.

Best Bars around Ibrox Stadium?

Being just south of the city centre, your best bet as an away fan is getting a few drinks in town before simply walking or getting a short train to the city centre. My advice is to enjoy a little wander around town (without straying too far from the ground) and seeing what takes your fancy.For home fans, The Albion (Broomloan Road) comes highly recommended as it just by the ground. Similarly there's a bunch of bars on Paisley Road West – anything here will suit Rangers fans.

How do I get to Ibrox Stadium?

For drivers, there's a secure car park (Albion Car Park) just by the venue which is probably your best option, though it costs £7 per car. Equally there is an abundance of car parking around the stadium, but be prepared to wait through a bit of traffic after a game!If you get the train into Central Station, it's probably worth walking to Argyle Street for the St Enoch subway and taking the inner circle line to Ibrox, as the stadium has its own stop.
