Had a great night at SOL. Great place and a win. Inside the ground, there are plenty of food and beer shops with a quick service. Stewards and staff really helpful. Amazing lighting display during dances of the knights for the team walk out. |

Massive ground for a Championship club. Really tidy with real personality. Felt like I'd walked into an epidsode of Soccer AM or my Match Attax book in 2007. Real nostalgic and old school footy club feeling. From the seats going slightly pink, to the carpet in the concourse, to a dodgey bitter or carling being the only pint options. Loved my visit here even if we were placed up into the top tier. Good atmosphere and got a 92nd min equaliser. Great stadium. Good awayday |

A world class modern stadium. Lots of work invested this summer into improvements, such as a Michelin star chef hospitality option, new art work all around the turnstiles and a seven figure transformation of the upper concourses. A must visit for fans of English football and the Premier League. |

Ran out of soft drinks on a very hot day. Despite there being lots of speakers in the PA system where we were sat in the 3rd row from front you couldn't make a word out the announcer was saying. |

100% fact! The North East is simply the best when it comes to a match day atmosphere! Sunderland fans were superb! Went to all the boozers and had no trouble whatsoever. Great club, great fans, and a great city. From a Bolton Wanderers fan. All the best! |

This football stadium was well built and seems to be very modern, with facilities equal to any team that is playing the premier leagle. However, the public visit, for safety reasons and very restricted, preventing fans can know its interior without being on game days. Despite this, the staff is very friendly and worth checking out. |

I went to see Bruce Springsteen, in concert. The stadium was easy to reach and so easy to get in, due to the tickets being on an app on my phone.<br>It was a very rainy day, but we kept dry with the roof covering. 3 hours of non stop music. |

Even the dark grey murky clouds pouring rain, high winds wouldn't have stopped me from making my first trip to the stadium of light, Sunderland. To witness an idol of mine... Bruce Springsteen. Through the shopping mall outdoors surrounded with pubs restaurants and bars aplenty...take a left across the bridge and in the distance you can see the stadium. Not as large as Wembley but a very cosy 45,000 people for a Springsteen concert. And the rest is history. An opportunity not to be missed. |

Good stadium, good selection of food and drink at reasonable prices. Stewards were friendly and helpful. Atmosphere not as good at some grounds but a lot of empty seats. Only disappointment was that the away fans are put in the top tier of the stand behind the goal. You are a very long way from the pitch. It would have been so much better if away fans are located in the lower section. Still a good day despite the result. |

Fantastic rugby match last night. Ha way the lasses!!! 😁<br>The atmosphere in town was amazing and great to have the new bridge open.<br>It was my first time in the Stadium of Light. Signage was poor to find our seats in Executive Box B and we almost gate crashed hospitality for the real VIPs which was embarrassing (where was the signage!?!). We found our seats with the help of the stewards, thank goodness they were on hand. However, I then asked where the toilets were. From the 'Executive Box' I was directed to the loos on a main concourse below and the queues for the women's were extra long (I'm sure that there was a much greater percentage of women than normally there for the men's football and the toilets couldn't cope). It was a grim experience which, I am sorry to say, would make me think twice about visiting the Stadium again. Some cubicles weren't flushing and the water on the floor of the one I had to use had come from I don't know where. Fortunately the atmosphere of excitement helped overcome this lack of luxury having treated ourselves to what I thought were 'luxury tickets' for a luxury experience. The padded seat and excellent view I must say were definitely worth the expense. Just had to review considering the whole of this first time experience. Sorry, Stadium of Light, it really grieves me that I can't give you 5 stars 😥. |

Fantastic large ground - attended a league one game with over 30,000 fans there. Away fans made a great atmosphere. Home fans subdued partly due to current form. It's an awe striking stadium, well designed and thought out with great sight lines for fans. |

First time at the stadium.<br>Very impressive when you walk out into the stadium.<br>Stewards Very friendly and helpful.<br>Catering staff terrible..no patience..mo understanding of customer needs..rudecat times. And as for the food Absolutely disgusting ..I had avegan pie..it never touched my lips...the inside was all on the outside. It was very slimey..soaky pastry on the bottom rock hard pastry on the top.<br>Went straight in the bin. There were no other vegetarian or vegan options . Can't say the rest of the food lood any better. Pukka Pies disgusting..<br>So guys, beware and take your own food .<br><br>But take that away, and as a family, we had a great day away . |

We went here for the England Lionesses Vs Scotland women game. We parked at the Sunniside car park which was around a 10 minute walk from the stadium itself. You can pre-book stadium parking but from our experiences at other places this is horrendous if you want to try and get away after the game. Cars cannot move for a long time after the game due to sheer amount of people and traffic.<br><br>Parking a bit away from the stadium itself saw us get away pretty much clean and free of major traffic or delays. The carpark was also free which was a bonus!<br><br>The stadium itself was very well laid out with bar areas and toilets, there were a lot of steps to negotiate but you can get other access options if you need them. We had a great view of the pitch!<br><br>We got chatting to a couple of stewards before the game whilst we waited for the gates to open, they were really friendly making the time pass quickly as we had arrived quite early.<br><br>We got a burger and chips from a van just outside the stadium which was reasonably priced for a burger wagon.<br><br>Inside the stadium the bars serve all manner of alcoholic drinks, soft drinks and food at a premium cost of course.<br><br>There is free WiFi within the stadium which I made use of as the mobile signal, although showing as strong was clearly struggling to cope with the number of people present.<br><br>Based on this experience I would certainly recommend a visit to the stadium of light. We had a great night with no issues at all. |

First visit to see the Christmas and crafts stalls there.Lots to see and some lovely things but a bit pricey for what they were. Food stalls good but very disappointed with the bratwurst stall, we asked for currywurst buns and got instead a small hot dog bun uncut with a chopped up sausage a dribble of tomato based sauce with powdered curry sprinkled on top!<br>Free parking and free entry, worth a visit. |

Beyonce renaissance tour, hospitality, Montgomery suite (Beyonce party package)<br><br>The hospitality package was well organised, and the itinerary was sent two weeks before with clear instructions on what to expect. while we were inside the staff we're very attentive and friendly and the table areas were nicely decorated. The food was buffet style with a choice of main courses which were tasty and there was a dessert table with a good selection, the choice of drinks we could have with our included drink tokens were average. We had the use of two bar areas and two lots of restrooms, which was a major bonus!. Our seats had a good view and were very close to our suite.<br><br>The only thing that let this evening down were the Stewards, they sent us wrong way multiple times and didn't know where we were supposed to be (as they did to many others) many of the areas are closed off without warning and a short walk turned into a lengthy one, be aware when booking anything like this as the map is basically useless. The security guard, on the other hand, was very helpful and showed us to our line. We still had to que in a lengthy line for an hour. |

Visited over the weekend after a gap of several years. Excellent hospitality, Sunderland really rolled out the red carpet making all of us visitors feel welcome in their home stand. Black Cats bar has been recently redecorated & looks far better than before.<br>Only issue on the day was the WiFi went down meaning that card machines in the bars stopped working. Hats off to the hosts though as they actually gave drinks away for free to those who didn't have cash. Really good day out, can't wait to return. |

Was there for an Ed Sheran concert. Stadium is fine, staff are great, prices about what you would expect. Traffic management is a joke. No supervision at all after the concert from stewards or police. Putting cars and drunk pedestrians on the same path is simply an accident waiting to happen. Will not be visiting this venue again until they sort that out. Ed Sheran was fantastic even if you're not an out and out fan like me. He is a great showman. |

We went to the stadium to see pink!<br>The signage to the stadium was lacking from the metro! There were quite a few people just trying to find their correct gate!<br>Lots of food and drink options, lots of toilets, but these were not maintained, so were in a disgusting state within a couple of hours.<br>Not enough bins, there was lots of rubbish around bin areas by the end of the night. The exit was a unorganised free for all with no help from staff just to "keep moving!"<br>We had an awesome night. The concert went great without a glitch. Thank you. |
