Vale Park

When I was as old as my son Harry (pictured) I attended my first ever football match.Port Vale Vs Newcastle United. My mum a Newcastle supporter took me into the away end (the hamil rd end). Newcastle ran out winners in the end. Over time Ive visited vale park many times sitting in the family stand, the railway paddock, the Lorne street and the bycars, but never Hamil until the 8th August 2023.The Hamil Rd end now belongs to the home supporters and what a pleasure it was to be in it once again, although I have to say it's changed a bit since the last time I was there in back in 1990.

Enjoyed our evening at the cup game against Fleetwood. Tickets were easy to book online and the food offer was varied (you can't beat Holland's pies!)

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Vale Park, the esteemed home of Port Vale FC, on a non-match day, and the experience left an indelible mark. Even without the roaring crowd and the excitement of a game, Vale Park revealed its charm and hospitality in ways that exceeded my expectations.The Port Vale FC merchandise shop proved to be a haven for fans, offering a delightful array of memorabilia, jerseys, and unique items. The selection showcased a commitment to providing supporters with diverse and high-quality merchandise. It was a fantastic opportunity to browse and indulge in the rich history and pride of Port Vale, even on a quieter day.The Social Club at Vale Park emerged as a hidden gem, creating a sense of camaraderie that extended beyond match days. The welcoming atmosphere, coupled with the friendly staff and fans, made it a true hub of community spirit. Engaging conversations about the club's history and shared passion for Port Vale added a personal touch to the visit.Exploring Vale Park without the bustling energy of a match day allowed me to appreciate the stadium's architecture and the well-maintained surroundings. The attention to detail and commitment to cleanliness were evident, reflecting the club's dedication to providing a top-notch facility for fans.In conclusion, my non-match day visit to Vale Park was a delightful experience that showcased the heart and soul of Port Vale FC. The outstanding merchandise shop, the warm and welcoming Social Club, and the overall ambiance of Vale Park made it clear that this is more than just a football stadium; it's a community and a source of pride for supporters. I highly recommend a visit to experience the genuine spirit of Port Vale beyond the excitement of the game.#UpTheVale #PortValeFC #ValeParkExperience

Brilliant evening, in the valiant suite at Portvale, live entertainment singing soul and motown, burger and chips included in the price, disco afterwards but the volume was a bit too high. Would go again.

Dreadful facilities .Beer warm and pie cold.Toilets atrocious!!No roof on outside area with the bars so got wet.Massive que to get in as only couple of turnstiles open.Staff were pleasant enough to us.

Excellent staff in the match day. Couldn't have been more helpful. Food options were limited but otherwise a good day at the football. Would recommend for supporters with additional needs (which we were) and saw some excellent service for other disabled visitors. Good work Port Vale.

Cracking traditional stadium. Felt like a cow shed on entry (comment stolen from my mate!). 40% filled by us Derby County fans. Amazing last 10-15 mins with terrific atmosphere and couple of goals to secure the away win. All the staff, stewards, police were good. Shame the bar ran out of sausage rolls for my mate…

I dont do football but we attended the venue as part of the Stoke memory walk for the Alzhimers society. The club was well presented and laid out.

Lovely friendly club. Away fans are welcome in the club house and there was no hassle from the home fans. This welcome extends onto the terraces. The only downside, is that the away terrace has a gentle rake to it, making the pitch seem further away than most grounds. On a positive note a Diet Coke was £2 (Jan 2023) and juices (cordial?) were available for a pound.

Argyle on tour!! So....here we are, the final journey in a long long season.....in the depths of Burslem, Stoke. PVFC v PAFC to win the Division 1 league. And, what a day it was. Up at 0130, left at 0330 and now at the stadium already thronged with Argyle fans. Thanks Port Vale, you did us proud. Such a friendly club and you clapped us when we won and gave us a guard of honour and their Chief Exec said some very kind words about us. It was class PV. Thanks for looking after us. You are a super club and I wish you well for next season.....we will be visiting your neighbours Stoke......in The Championship!!!!
