The “CCFC Family Enclosure” of the Donie Forde Stand is our ‘family stand’. This means that it is an ideal area to bring one or more children and enjoy a carnival atmosphere! Our club mascot Corky the Cheetah pays regular visits to this section and our volunteers provide face-painting, flags and banners!
Anyone coming into the ground who is likely to take up a seat for all or part of the match will be charged, and on that basis toddlers will be charged for an U12 ticket. There is no charge for babies although the environment is not ideally suited for very young children. However, you will not be turned away because you have a baby with you and we will do our best to accommodate!
Please note that the ground does not have baby changing facilities.
If you are coming along as a ‘neutral’ fan or to support CCFC for the first time then you have a couple of options. Turner’s Cross is an “all-seater” stadium with a capacity of around 6,900 seats.
Seating Areas:

The Donie Forde Stand is a two-tier stand, behind the home and away team dugouts. Season ticket holders with reserved seats occupy a portion of this stand (selected seats in sections B1, B3, D1 and D3) and these seats will be marked with a “reserved” sign. Additionally, sections C1, C3 and C5 are reserved for members of the media, club sponsors, match officials and guests. The far end of the stand (near the St. Anne’s End) is home to our Family Enclosure section.
The Curragh Road Stand has a few names. You might hear it called “The Shed End” (in honour of the famous terrace which previously occupied the space) or the Curragh Road Stand. The loud and passionate atmosphere in the ground is usually generated in here with plenty of singing, chants, drums, large flags, fan-displays and much more! Spectators in here may stand for the majority of the game.
The St. Anne’s End is the largest capacity stand in the ground. It’s located at the St. Anne’s Park end of the ground. A section of this stand is usually reserved for the away team’s supporters.
The Derrynane Road Stand is the lowest capacity stand with six rows of seats which extend the entire length of the pitch. It’s directly opposite the Donie Forde Stand.
Our match-day stewards and security team are happy to help with any questions or concerns you may have. Our Supporter Liaison Officer (SLO) are also on hand to help any supporter that has a question or concern at the ground. We currently have one SLO who can be identified by their jacket with the CCFC crest on the front and “SLO” written on the back. The SLO will assist you with your question/issue or put you in touch with the relevant parties to help further if necessary. You can contact the SLO directly by emailing [email protected] For more information about our SLOs, click here.
Yes, the club shop is located at the Curragh Road Stand as you enter from this end of the ground. It’s open 75 minutes before kick-off, at half time and at the end of the match. Volunteers will also be outside the ground selling our matchday programme “City Edition”. As well as a range of jerseys, hats and scarves, most of the items on sale are smaller souvenirs like pin-badges, key-rings and gifts at low-cost prices.
Although it can appear busy at times, particularly closer to kick-off, please don’t let that put you off. Service is quick and once you get to the shop counter feel free to take your time to browse the items on display.
