My son and I are Arsenal fans and we had the opportunity to see them play Villa using a friend's dad's season tickets. Of course, this meant sitting with the Villa fans, so you can imagine that we didn't celebrate too loudly when Arsenal eventually won... It was my first football game and a real eye opener. You don't realise just how loud it gets, when you're watching at home.<br>There was a nice atmosphere at the ground, the fans and the staff were friendly, and there was a sense of history; though modernised, you could tell it was an older stadium, which was nice. There was a live band playing outside when we arrived, too, which was a nice touch.<br>One word of advice, though: I am 59 and 11/12's and if your knees are anything like mine, I recommend using the lifts where possible - there are a LOT more stairs than there first appear.<br>An enjoyable day. |

Attended the P!NK concert here, whilst the concert was amazing the stadium was very badly run. The queue for a cold drink on a hot day was over an hour long, the bar staff didn't know what they were doing/ was just stood around. Security staff wasn't great either, letting people in the wrong gates!<br>It's such a shame as the concert was great but I'd think twice about attending an event here again. |

Here for a foo fighters gig, luckily we had Airbnb a 10 min walk away, but everywhere was signposted well and guides/stewards were on hand to happily show everyone where to go.<br>Bar staff in the ground weren't exactly quick, and for £9.80 a pint (including cup) waiting 2 hrs for a drink 2 hrs before the show even started and them not even pouring upto the pint line wasn't ideal.<br><br>Only other complaint was lack of wcs for women and lines were upwards of half an hour long. The only toilets available on lower levels had two actual toilets, and wall to wall urinals, unfortunately there were two women who were having to inject insulin and I held their bags as there wasn't anywhere else to put them.<br><br>I understand it's a football stadium, but still. It's 2024 and it could have been better. |

I recently had a chance to visit this place and i felt wow. There are couple of reasons,<br>1. This place is suitable to events, parties, job fair etc.<br>2. This building is integrated with club setup (drinking serving station), and football stadium.<br>3. Adjacent to that, their is a huge park which is well maintained. It has walking, jogging tracks. Also, benches to relax. Such a calm environment.<br><br>I strongly recommend people to visit this park to take some nice picturesque background.<br><br>Disadvantage: About a kilometers you need to walk for a bus stop to catch city centre or Erdington buses. No shops nearby. |

Went to see the foo fighters (who were ace) but Villa park is an awful music venue. The sound was very tinny in the stands. The staff were absolutely useless in the kiosks, couldn't pour a pint, constantly running out of beer, didn't have a drink the whole time there. Avoid |

What a great arena for football. I have been visiting Villa Park for at least 55 years.<br>It's moved with times yet still maintains its familiar external facade. I'm not even a fan of Villa, but keep turning up and it never disappoints. |

Great place to see Pink and supporting acts.<br>The only downside was that there weren't enough staff at the outlets and they were very slow. They charged for the reusable cups, but there was no sign to say this and as the outlets were shut by the end of the concert there was no way to get your money back. |

I visited Villa Park with my daughter to watch a WSL game. We had a great time. I am a wheelchair user and the club were very accommodating. The ticket office helped me book a wheelchair space and on site car parking. We were in the Trinity Road Stand and the wheelchair area is about halfway up the stand so we had a fantastic view of the pitch. It is flat access from stadium entrance to wheelchair area so is easy to access. There are wheelchair accessible toilets too (dont forget your RADAR key). On the concourse area there are various catering options for hot and cold food and drinks though service can take a while at busy times so probably best not to go for refreshments at half time. There were plenty of stewards who were all friendly and helpful. Oh, and the football was good to watch too. We'd come here again. |

What a place<br><br>Beautiful venue<br><br>Absolutely worth a visit...<br><br>It's not just that you have to be a Aston Villa fan to visit them.<br><br>They have few rooms and suites to rent for private and corporate parties that you can book for.<br><br>Definitely recommended to consider them as premium venue.<br><br>Yes they charge higher than normal banqueting suites but remember it's a premium venue that charge premium.<br><br>You will enjoy your time there... |

Had an excellent tour of Villa Park led by the knowledgeable Keith. Lots of wonderful photographs of past times and hero's, silverware and the chance to view the stands and wonderful lush green pitch in the Spring sunlight. Last took the tour must be around 40 years ago with my son but this time l was accompanied by my two almost 16 year old grandsons.<br>After the tour we enjoyed an excellent 3 course lunch in the restaurant.<br>Thank you again Keith we all enjoyed our visit and it will stay in all our memories. UTV!! |

Well I suppose I am a bit biased as my son supports The Villa. However, each time he visits. The staff are friendly and always helpful.<br>They are always supportive of people who have extra needs. My son always enjoys the atmosphere. It's a great looking stadium.<br>I always feel proud when I go there.<br>I love the fact that they have workers with mobility needs too. Just goes to show they have no prejudice and do practice what they preach in terms of equal opportunities. |

It's probably a good place for a football match as that's what it's designed for, but for a concert it is the epitomy of GARBAGE.<br>The sound echoes around, which ruined a perfectly good concert.<br>An acoustic toilet that should be avoided by both bands and fans alike. |

Terrible venue for a concert. Minimal food outlets (all charging over the odds - £39 for 3 portions of chicken and chips...6 pieces of chicken in total, which we had to queue for nearly an hour to get), no way we could get to the merch stand as so many people cramed in to a small area, way too many people in the stadium as tickets were not being checked, people moving from seated to the floor as wristbands not checked...and then a 2 hour queue to leave the city at the end because no one was policing traffic. An absolute joke of a venue, certainly not built for larger events and would rather travel further to different venues in the future as our experience at the start and end of the night did impact our evening. Pink was fantastic! This was a venue and staffing issue, very disappointing. Other large stadiums I have attended for concerts have done a much better job. |

WOW!<br><br>Attended a Foo Fighters gig here in June and what a let down in terms of the event services. Staff didn't know how to pull pint, lost most of it down the drain from what I could see from the back of the mile long, slow moving queue to the bar.<br><br>When you finally get within tasting distance... The beer runs out.<br><br>I made one pint last all night, in fear I was going to be celebrating Christmas if I returned to 'run the gaunlet' and return for a second.<br><br>If Aston Villa played like they serve a pint they'd be in League Two.<br><br>PCB 👎🏻 |

The concert was excellent, the ground has character but the catering is nothing short of poor and daylight robbery. They charge a £2 deposit on the plastic glasses, which you can use again, and I'm all for recycling, but you don't get your money back if you return them? They expect you to put them in the bins provided so they can wash them and use them again and charge you again!! Daylight robbery and living up to their names THE VILE and Villains. Never again!!! |

The transportation between Birmingham city centre and Villa park is very convenient. I visited Villa park as a neutral fan to watch the game with Man City, in the Premier league. The layout of seat is really good and no restriction with my particular seat.<br><br>Plenty of stewards who are very helpful and on hand to support when needed. The football chants were lasting 90 minutes. What I can advise is the toilets which is packed with queue. The place is packed with queuing people for toilet and food zone. |

Not the place for a gig. The bar situation is dire. Small queue for the bar took 45mins becuase there was something wrong with the machine or it may have been the inexperience of the people using it. I honestly poured my own lager showing them how to pour. At one point the had about 10 glasses n the bar with a little lager and the rest froth ouring then into one. Most ended up in a mop bucket. Other bars were running out of beer too. I just think for a packed gig they're not prepared.<br><br>You can't park near the ground without aparking pass. I was lucky as with a blue badge for £20 you can park in tesco 5 mins walk away. I can't help thinking most of those in the carpark hadn't paid tho as there wasn't anyone to check parking on the way in. No hotels really close but there's a park and ride apparently into the ground from Birmingham City Centre.<br><br>There's a few places to eat and a bar after the first ticket check. I recomend the 'Must be Jerking' jerk chicken (or vegitarian of vegan options available). You can't take your beer into the ground with you but there are plenty of bars inside.<br><br>At the end of the show we were hoping to get out from standing area (there's unreserved seating at the back) to the road in the corner but they wouldn't let us out until a long time after.<br><br>So for a gig no, I'd go somewhere else. Otherwise Fottball match ideal. |

We went here for a condensed on disability and it was easy enough to get to. The facilities were very nice and so were the staff but I struggled to see the accessibility toilets but again we were only in one section of the park so there probably scattered else where.<br>The four stars is for the parking. I have kids with additional needs so finding a parking space that's accessable and quiet is a skill but I struggled here. Again it may have been because we were only in one section and this was not a match day so if you are going my advice is to call ahead, their lovely to speak with here. |

Villa Park, domicile d'Aston Villa, est un stade historique qui respire la tradition du football anglais. Avec son architecture classique et son ambiance chaleureuse, il offre une expérience authentique aux fans de football. Le stade est bien entretenu et a su conserver son charme d'antan tout en offrant un bon confort aux spectateurs. L'atmosphère y est toujours électrique, surtout lors des grands matchs ou des derbys locaux. Un excellent choix pour ceux qui souhaitent vivre le football anglais dans un cadre historique et passionné. |

Has to be one of the best grounds in the country, both for atmosphere and facilities. There is the academy with entertainment for the kids and the bar for the dads / moms, before the match. An excellent Villa shop and good facilities within the ground.<br>It also has one of the largest main (end) stands, the Holte End. Lots of history, used numerous times for major cup competitions.<br><br>Go on give it a try, you won't be disappointed. |
