Visited the stadium to watch West Indies play England in an ODI. The first things to say is that security will not let you take any metal bottles into the ground, so any metal reusable water bottles will be taken from you and left for you to collect when you leave. The second time I went, I only took plastic.
The ground holds about 10,000 but there were probably less than 2,000 people at each of the matches. That meant security was around the outside of the ground, but non-existent in the stadium unless you were going into the party stand. This meant that as soon as you bought a US$7 ticket for the grassy bank, you were free to wander into the stands and sit in a seat that should have cost US$50 - I won't make that mistake again! Just buy the cheapest ticket you can and sit wherever you want. Given that you can sit absolutely anywhere, the views are great. Just be prepared to run for cover if it rains - it sure does hammer down if it decides to rain. But the outfield drains really impressively well so within 30 minutes of the rain stopping, the payers were back on the field.
Prices around the ground are in EC$ despite tickets being priced in US$. The handful of permanent food and drink outlets built into the stands also took credit and debit cards, which was very useful. However, this being an international match there were also a lot of excellent pop-up street food stalls and cocktail bars, most only taking cash but a few of the busier ones also taking cards. I had a most excellent lobster and chips on one visit (US$40) and ribs and chips on another (also US$40).

Although all gates were closed, a local asked me to have a look. Everyone should definitely do that, and ask.
The stadium is very imposing. The stadium in its surroundings, and in Antigua, (beats) everything. That says what the sport means here. On the other hand, there are undoubtedly other needs on the island (reduction of poverty, good infrastructure) which could have a greater impact and enjoyment.
It was nice that I could watch everything. I understand it's also part of local tours. But the best thing is the stadium when it's played in, and you taste the atmosphere and experience the game. Unfortunately, that was not the case, nor is it the case that this happens (very) frequently.

It was easy to get in and out and found our seats easily. The atmosphere was good with WI bands playing and still drums. The barmy army held their own. Home made food of all sorts available and no dearer than we pay at home (UK).

It’s a little rundown now but this is still a wonderful stadium with a great view of the field of play from anywhere in the ground. My group had great seats at the Andy Roberts end, but it was much more enjoyable to watch the match with the locals on the grassy bank. Plenty of food and drink vendors there too. Excellent lobster and goat water for lunch.

I wished we could have seen a match while visiting Antigua, but we did stop by the stadium to look around and take some photos. We were driving out to Long Bay Beach and in the middle of nowhere, this beautiful modern cricket ground suddenly popped up. It was a bit surreal. It sounds like we could have had a quick look around which I wish we had done but views from outside were still impressive, and I was able to get a nice photo of the statue of Sir Vivian Richards. Hearing the sound of batting practice in the nearby training fields was pretty cool.

Visited for the Antigua & Barbuda vs Barbados match for the #concacafnationsleague.
Visiting was a great experience, and once you’re in there you’re free to roam and explore the stadium grounds. We could watch the match from wherever we saw fit.
Tickets were extremely reasonable, and I enjoyed the fact that they sell magnums in the stadium. Didn’t try the food on offer, but the fried chicken and dumplings looked tasty.
If you’re a sports fan and are on the island, you should definitely check this out.

Got a driver for the day and this was a location I had to see. Unlike UK stadiums, our driver simply drove in, we could wander round and even managed to walk out to the square. We were even told we could go into reception. The people there seemed genuinely pleased we wanted to see their stadium. There was no charge and there are no gift shops, just a stadium which is at the early years of its life!!
We even made a new friend when we were walking round, she followed us everywhere!!!

On our recent visit to the lovely island of Antigua, my wife and I arranged a bespoke island tour and one of the places we requested to see was The Vivian Richards Stadium, having just seen West Indies play England recently on TV Sports. Would have loved to have been there a few weeks earlier to experience the match live. We went in and had a good look around at the impressive facilities. Worth a visit, ideally when the Windies are playing!

I’d like to visit the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium next March for the test match, what area of the island should I be looking to book a hotel in which is easily accessible to the stadium and is a beech location?
Thanks in advance.

Are you able to take own food and drink into the ground ?

I’m sorry I can’t help you. There wasn’t a match on while we were there, I wish there had been. The stadium was empty. We just visited on an island tour. We saw food counters etc but I’m sure the locals must take in their own food and drink. Antigua is very relaxed and can’t imagine they would be that strict.

I've just been reading reviews of the Sir Viv Richards stadium in Antigua. We are over there in a few weeks for the England ODI against West Indies and were wondering whether it is best to get tickets for the North or South stands. We don't want to be in the shade all day, neither do we want to fry in the sun! Is one stand any better than the other and is it possible to move around to different seats in the same price range if you want to catch/avoid the sun?
Many thanks,
Chris
