What to expect from the DW Stadium crowd?

DW Stadium is a venue in or near Wigan that is most often used for Soccer

The stand just adjacent to the away area (left of the North Stand) is where the rowdier Wigan fans assemble. There's a good bit of singing, lots of chanting, cheering, hissing and oooh-ing at the right moment, so it's a pretty fun experience. The stadium is pretty loud, so that helps build a bit of atmosphere, even during a quiet game. There aren't many issues between fans, so you should be safe to display your colours (sensibly) to/from the game.

Although it has a reputation of being more of a rugby town than a footballing one, the fans that turn up to the DW are as passionate and as enthusiastic as any around the country. There is a family feel to the stadium, with large numbers of seats being designated for a family area.However a great atmosphere is generated - the fact that the home and away supporters are seated pretty much right next to each other gives a fantastic vibe to the stadium, with fantastic banter and cheers being dolled out by both sets of fans.
