Cardiff City away day guide: Ewood Park

Cardiff City travel to Ewood Park to face Blackburn Rovers in the Championship on Saturday 10 October, 3pm (UK time). Here is what travelling fans need to know: getting to the ground, where it is, the forecast and how to follow the game if you are not going.

The ground

Blackburn Rovers play at Ewood Park, Blackburn, Lancashire, Blackburn. It holds 31,367 supporters.

How far is it?

Ewood Park is 255km (158 miles) from Cardiff City Stadium in a straight line, so the journey by road or rail will be longer. Plan for traffic and allow extra time on a matchday.

Matchday weather

The forecast for kick-off at Ewood Park is overcast, around 10°C, with a 100% chance of rain and wind around 18mph. Forecasts change, so check again on the morning of the game.

Tickets and the away end

Away allocations, ticket prices and turnstile details are set by the clubs. Check Blackburn Rovers’s official website and Cardiff City’s ticket office before you travel.

Not going? How to follow it

Blackburn Rovers vs Cardiff City kicks off at 3pm on a Saturday, so it is not shown live on UK television because of the 3pm broadcast blackout.
