The City Ground: Nottingham Forest matches & tickets
Home of Nottingham Forest, The City Ground sits by the River Trent in West Bridgford, just south of Nottingham city centre. It has been Forest’s base since the late 19th century, and it still feels close to the club’s roots, compact, loud, and full of history. Premier League days here have a proper old-ground edge, with the river nearby and pubs and streets filling up well before kick-off. It is an easy part of the city to reach and a good area to soak up the build-up on foot. Find upcoming fixtures, tickets, and everything for a matchday visit below.
