About Priestfield Stadium

Priestfield Stadium

Priestfield Stadium in Gillingham, Kent, stands as one of English football's most enduring homes, having hosted the same club continuously since 1893. Beyond its remarkable longevity as Gillingham FC's ground, this historic venue has welcomed a diverse array of football, from international women's and youth matches to serving as a temporary refuge for Brighton & Hove Albion in the 1990s, and even hosting rugby league action. For sports enthusiasts interested in authentic lower-league football culture and a stadium steeped in over a century of local sporting tradition, Priestfield offers a genuine glimpse into the heart of England's football community.
