Games are rarely segregated at the Balmoral Stadium. When segregation is in force then the East End and half of the North Side, plus some of the seats in the Main Stand can be allocated. The North Side includes a small covered terrace, whilst apart from the Main Stand the rest of the visitors’ areas are uncovered. Normally a warm and friendly welcome is given to visiting fans.

Cove Rangers mark 200th game milestone in Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL)

Cove Rangers will celebrate their 200th game in the SPFL on Saturday, 13 September 2025, when they host Inverness CT at Balmoral Stadium.

As they approach this milestone, the club reflects on its proud history in the SPFL, having won two titles and finishing as runners-up in League One. They have participated in both a final and a semi-final playoff. Most notably, Cove Rangers is the only club to have gained promotion through the pyramid to compete in Championship football.

Additionally, they achieved their longest unbeaten run in the SPFL, lasting 27 games from October 2021 to August 2022. During this period, they also set a record for the most consecutive wins over three months.

There is a small fan zone clubhouse bar at the stadium that welcomes visiting fans. The stadium is situated on an industrial estate, which is somewhat out of town, so there aren’t many nearby places to drink.

One exception is the Wellington Hotel on Wellington Road, which has a sizable bar and is located about half a mile away, roughly a ten-minute walk from the stadium. Another option is the Landykes on Loriston Road in Cove, located just under a mile east of the ground.

Currently, there are only a few recognised kiosks and carts selling food at Balmoral Stadium. However, at the beginning of the 2025/26 season, the club announced that fans will be able to enjoy a variety of tasty food and refreshing drinks from Spudz R Us. This Cove-based business will make its debut at Balmoral Stadium and will gradually expand its offerings as the season progresses.

The club also mentioned that Spudz R Us will be located in the refreshment kiosk at the away end, which is accessible through the main stand.

Cove Rangers had been without their ground for several seasons after leaving Allan Park in 2015, which had been their home since 1948. Balmoral Stadium was completed in time for the start of the 2018/19 season. This new stadium is quite small but functional for a team newly promoted to the Scottish Football League.

Main Stand

On the south side of the stadium is the small Main Stand, which runs along the halfway line. It extends for approximately a quarter of the pitch’s length and has 324 seats divided into four blocks. This stand is covered, with the roof positioned high above the seating area.

At the back of the stand, there is a glazed front that showcases other club facilities, including a hospitality suite.

The stand also houses the dressing rooms and club offices. There are flat standing areas on each side, and the team dugouts are on this side of the pitch.

Other stands

On the opposite side, three small prefabricated stands are spaced apart. The centre one straddles the halfway line and has four rows of seats, totalling 86 seats.

The two other stands are identical, with seven steps of a terrace, one overlooking each half of the pitch. The remainder of this side is flat, standing. Both ends are open, flat standing areas.

The skyline behind the North side is dominated by a particularly ugly communication pylon and some less obtrusive pylons and wires. There are four floodlight pylons running down each side of the pitch.

By train

Aberdeen Railway Station is around three miles away from the Balmoral Stadium and is uphill most of the way, so it is rather far to walk. However, there is a very good bus service that will take you along the A956 near the stadium.

From Aberdeen Railway Station, cross the road to the other side of Guild Street. The First Aberdeen Number 3 bus goes from here towards the Cove. After passing a Shell Garage on the left, then at the next roundabout (where there is another Shell Garage on the right and a Burger King), get off and follow the road in between the Shell and Burger King into the small Retail Park and then the Industrial Estate. The stadium is at the end of this road.

The bus takes about 15 minutes and runs every 15 minutes during the day, reducing to half-hourly in the evenings. There is one back after an evening game. You can view timetables on the First Group website.

By car

The Balmoral Stadium is located on the Southern side of Aberdeen.

From The South
Leave the A92 and take the A956 towards Altens. On reaching a roundabout with a Burger King and a Shell Garage on the left-hand side. Take the first exit towards the retail park and then follow the road as it first bears around to the right into the industrial estate, passing the Royal Mail office on the left. The ground is at the end of this road.

From The North
Follow the A92 around Aberdeen heading towards Dundee. After crossing the Bridge over the River Dee, at the next roundabout, take the first exit onto the B9077, signposted Altens Industrial Estate.

Go straight over the next two roundabouts and at the third, take the third exit onto the A956, towards Perth. You will then pass the Wellington Pub & Grill on your right and a Shell Garage on your left.

At the next roundabout, there is a Burger King and a Shell Garage on the right-hand side. Take the fourth exit towards the small retail park and then follow the road as it first bears around to the right, into the industrial estate, passing the Royal Mail office on the left. The ground is at the end of this road.

Car Parking
There is a small car park on the ground. Otherwise, there is street parking available on roads around the Balmoral Industrial Estate where the ground is located.

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting the ground itself?

One of only two Scottish grounds I hadn't previously visited and one of the very few I'd never seen Dundee play on

How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?

Pretty straightforward. As this was an evening game I opted to stay overnight in Aberdeen afterwards and found a nice hotel close to the ground so it was only a short walk. I followed the excellent instructions on this website and found the stadium with no problem

What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?

As I was staying in The Aberdeen Altens Hotel nearby I had a meal and drink in their restaurant. Pretty standard pub food and not a huge range of beers to choose from but it was perfectly acceptable. As far as I could see their Keg and Coast bar is open to non residents so might be a spot for a pre match beer/meal as there didn't seem to be much else around. Not much contact with home fans but everything seemed pretty quiet and peaceful

What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of the stadium?

It's a small but neat and tidy stadium. Main stand and both ends are now covered though not sure how much protection you'd get on a bad weather day. For old school football fans like me it's sadly lacking in any real character

Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..

I expect the Cove fans enjoyed the game as Dundee were rank bad and were easily beaten 3-1. Atmosphere was subdued due to a small crowd. Stewards were helpful and friendly and toilet facilites were adequate

Comment on getting away from the ground after the game

No problems getting away and I was back at my hotel 15 mnutes after the final whistle

Summary of overall thoughts of the day out

An OK day out though my team were disappointing and I've now done 41 of the current 42 Scottish grounds

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting the ground itself?

One of the few Scottish grounds to tick off the list.

How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?

The ground is in the middle of an industrial estate but easy enough to find. Parking is available next to the ground or in the surrounding estate.

What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?

We went to the social club and enjoyed a very friendly welcome. Pint of tennents priced at £3.50.

What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of the stadium?

The ground is fine. There is one very small stand and the rest is standing with no terrace. This means there is very little depth and so the view is pretty poor.

Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..

Typical friendly game, Dunfermline won 2-0.

Comment on getting away from the ground after the game

Wasn’t the biggest of crowds and so no bother at all. The ground is easily accessible by car.

Summary of overall thoughts of the day out

Good to tick another ground off the list. The social club and welcome is great, the ground itself not so much.

Game AttendedKelty Hearts v Cowdenbeath
CompetitionScottish League Two
Date31/07/2021

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting the ground itself?

As Kelty Hearts have replaced Brechin City in the SPFL, my wife and I needed to 'do' the ground as part of The Ground-Hoppers SPFL 42.

How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?

Travelling from England, simply head for The Queensferry Crossing (over The Forth) and head up the M90. Turn right, at Junction 4, and the A909 takes you straight into the centre of Kelty (about 1 mile). At the junction with the B917, turn left onto Main Street, then take the 3rd right onto Bath Street. The ground (New Central Park) is about 100 yards, on your left.

What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?

We had a pleasant time in the Kelty Hearts Social Club, where, because of my disabilities, we were well looked-after by the lovely Claire. To get there in my wheelchair, once we'd entered the ground at the South Terrace entrance, I was pushed by a really helpful steward, Indeed, it has to be said that all the stewards we met and came across, were exceptionally friendly and helpful and we ended-up watching the game with husband and wife, Glenn and Jane Anderson. Both were Rangers fans but Glenn was supporting Kelty, for the day, and Jane was a Blue Brazil fan. Thanks to you all.

What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of the stadium?

As Kelty have replaced Brechin City (and their famous 'hedge'), in the SPFL, it is pleasing to see that the (north) away-end has a lovely 'hedge' of trees behind it. Both terraces behind the goals are open-ends, with no roofing. But the two terraces, in each half of the east-side, do have roofing - and there is a little smokers' den between them (facing away from the pitch). The west stand has seating for over 300 fans. The only gripe I have is that, the lay-out of the ground is not especially helpful for people in wheelchairs - and I would suggest that they build a little, roofed-enclosure, in the south-east corner of the ground (as this is the main access point to the stadium).

Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..

The game was a thoroughly-entertaining derby match, with Kelty proving to be worthy winners. As previously-stated, all the stewards and club officials we met were so friendly and helpful. They could not have done more for us than what they did. The strange thing not, just before kick-off, is that the opposing teams came onto the pitch from diagonally-opposed parts of the ground - and - unlike all other teams in the lower leagues of the SPFL, Kelty had their players' names on the back of their shirts, rather than just the sponsors' names. All prices for food and drink, in the social club, were very reasonable - where you can buy pies, pies and beans, burgers and such like. My steak pie, at £2.50, was really tasty - but my wife had a mince pie (for £2) which was quite average.

Comment on getting away from the ground after the game

As we arrived 2 hours before the game, we were parked just yards away from the entrance to the South Terrace (which is the main entrance per se). There is a large field there to accommodate many cars. We got away quite quickly and were back onto the M90 within 5 minutes or so.

Summary of overall thoughts of the day out

This was a fabulous day-out and I would recommend all ground-hoppers getting there early, in order to take advantage of the hospitality in the welcoming social club. But I would hope that club does make it that bit easier for people with mobility issues. However, it is a smashing little club - which is extremely well-supported for its size - and I would not be surprised to see them imitate the success of Cove Rangers.

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting the Balmoral Stadium?
 
Having done 'the 42' several years ago, this visit was a 'back-fill' for me, since Cove Rangers replaced Berwick Rangers in the SFL. It was also my wife's 36th Scottish ground. The ground is not too difficult to find so long as you remember to follow the 'industrial road', once you get to the Burger King roundabout.
 
How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?
 
We travelled to Aberdeen, on the day, from Leith Waterfront, where we had spent our 44th wedding anniversary on the Friday. It was a testing drive due to excess water on the A90 (especially in Fife), high winds and bouts of heavy rain. But having checked into the Craighaar Hotel (well-recommended) on the North Side of Aberdeen, we encountered a number of traffic problems (with road closures) when trying to get back south, to Cove Bay. Thus, we arrived 10 minutes after kick-off. Thankfully though, Duncan Little at the club had arranged a disabled parking space for us, as well as 2 front-seats in the stand.
 
What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?
 
We whinged a lot as Aberdeen, despite its many attractions, must have the longest red-traffic-light sequences in Europe. At the game, however, the fans and stewards were friendly and helpful.
 
What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of the Balmoral Stadium?
 
I would highly recommend a visit to this cosy little ground – not least because they have made the effort to have a four-sided fans' stadium, rather than befitting the dull model of numerous new SFL grounds which just focus on having one main stand – full stop!
 
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..
 
The steak pies (£2.50) are as good as any that I have had at any British football ground. And the Balmoral Pie sounds intriguing but we didn't try one. (Chicken, garlic & haggis) A large hot cup of tea is also great value at just £1.50.
 
Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:
 
As there is just one road in – and therefore, one road out – you just need to be patient (as there are also lots of pedestrians). But the exit-route does not take too long.
 
Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:
 
Despite the fact that we were absolutely freezing for much of the time – and had to watch a match during which the strong wind played such a key-role – both teams put on a good show, despite the elements and we certainly enjoyed our visit.

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting the Balmoral Stadium?

This match was selected by my mate Ian, I was dubious about the fixture but the match and the whole event exceeded my expectations considerably.

How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?

The ground is about three miles away from Aberdeen City Centre. We took a taxi to what we thought was a nearby pub but it was a mile or so from the ground. Balmoral Stadium is at the end of an industrial estate, it is not well signposted and where there was a fork in the road we took the wrong option, as did a number of people travelling by car.

What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?

A few pints followed by a trip to Burger King on the way to the ground set us up for the afternoon.

What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of the Balmoral Stadium?

The ground is modern and its location is at the back of an "industrial beyond", but once inside the atmosphere is very friendly. This was an international weekend and it was clear that there were a number of visitors completing the "42". The description of the ground is more than adequately covered on this site, it is similar to a number of senior non-league grounds in England. with a small modern Main Stand with the remainder being mostly standing but with no terracing. 

Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..

Cove won the game 3 0 but in truth, it could have been a lot more. Brechin defended resolutely for three-quarters of the match but, once they conceded the first goal the game was up.

Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:

This was straightforward, a mile walk back to the pre-match pub, a pint or two, followed by a taxi back to Aberdeen.

Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:

I hear that Cove Rangers are not well-liked amongst their ex-Highland League rivals but for a neutral, there was nothing to dislike, a really friendly crowd and, on the day of our visit, an absorbing game to watch.

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting the Balmoral Stadium?
 
Having completed the ‘92’ in England in 2015 I’m now a good way through doing the ‘42’ north of the border. The Scottish League Cup now having a group stage at the start of the competition has given it a real boost and has added a little more excitement. I decided it’d be a good time to get a couple of grounds ticked off the list so after Peterhead v Inverness CT the night before it was back down to Aberdeen for Cove Rangers v Dundee. I was looking forward to seeing a new ground and the team that were playing their first competitive game since winning promotion to the SPFL at the expense of Berwick Rangers back in May.
 
How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?
 
After spending the day in Aberdeen I caught a bus headed for Cove (directions and details excellently provided on this website). The ground isn’t in Cove itself (Cove being a smaller district about three miles outside Aberdeen) but is situated at the back of an industrial estate. The ground very much has an ‘out of town’ feel but was relatively simple to find. There was a decent amount of car parking at the ground.
 
What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?
 
I stayed in Aberdeen until about 6.00pm before catching the bus to Cove as I was aware there was little to do around the ground, which is an understatement! I went and bought my ticket as soon as I got to the ground and then had a pint in the small clubhouse, which is like a large portakabin and feels a bit ‘temporary’! The fans seemed okay but kept themselves to themselves.
 
What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of the Balmoral Stadium?
 
The ground is very new, really smart and will suit them well in League 2. The dominant feature of the ground is the Main Stand, which straddles the halfway line. The roof is pretty high up so I’d imagine inhabitants could get pretty wet when the bad weather rolls in! Both ends are uncovered hard standing areas, while the far side is unsheltered save for three very small covered stands. The ground really could do with some more cover, particularly along the far side as it is currently pretty exposed – I wouldn’t want to visit when the bitter Scottish winter arrives! Transfer to the Main Stand costs £2.
 
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..
 
The game was pretty even and neither side did enough to win it, resulting in a 0-0 scoreline (I seem to clock up a lot of blanks on my travels!). Dundee controlled a fair bit of the game but Cove more than held their own and both sides had a reasonable number of chances to win it. The game was segregated, with Dundee taking their full allocation of 800 tickets, although I believe most games will be unsegregated. I didn’t eat at the ground but had a hot drink at half time. The food, however, did look good and the toilet facilities were clean and new, although there are only toilets on the side of the Main Stand rather than elsewhere too. Fortunately, due to the format of the competition, the game went to penalties, and it was Dundee who won on spot-kicks.
 
Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:
 
It’s very much a ‘one road in, one road out’ ground so with a large crowd it was pretty busy getting away until we hit the main road and things started to fan out. Most cars seemed to wait behind rather than fight with pedestrians for road space.
 
Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:
 
The ground is decent and has been thoughtfully built but its location is a bit of a letdown. The club are very ambitious and I’m sure they will cope just fine in League 2. It will be interesting to see whether they do make some changes to the ground if they do well in the SPFL. Likewise, I do wonder how many fans Cove will attract in the long term if they have success, or go on to have a long but mediocre history in the SPFL. They have the feeling of a ‘club on the up’ at the minute and seem to have a lot of new fans, but that won’t last forever so it will be interesting to see the crowds they attract in the long term. Another interesting dimension is how Aberdeen will cope with having two SPFL clubs! If you want to eat and have a couple of beers beforehand it might be a good idea to hang around in Aberdeen or elsewhere given that there isn’t a lot at the ground itself.

Why were you looking forward to this game and visiting the Balmoral Stadium?
 
Pre my main club’s season, the Betfred Cup surprisingly offered three unvisited venues from my five remaining Scottish grounds. It was, however, an easy choice to visit Aberdeen and thus also continue the Oor Wullie charity statue trail.
 
How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?
 
Ongoing rail problems after the hottest day of the year delayed my arrival by an hour on the Friday. Never-the-less I ‘ticked-off’ the majority of the Wullies that evening and match day morning including one depicting local legend Willie Miller. (Previously having seen Ross County & Caledonian Thistle versions in Inverness). As per the pertinent advice of this site I caught the frequent No 3 bus outside the Ladbrooks shop on Guild St. A £4.50 ‘grasshopper’ zone 1 ticket gave me full flexibility including other journeys or errors. A combination of Google maps and the presence of other ground-hoppers ensured I alighted at the Souterhead Road stop. After crossing the road and the petrol station forecourt small cardboard signs directed me (starting as a parallel road towards town) to walk all the way around (ie. change of direction) a giant post office yard and onwards to the Balmoral Stadium, its car park and Main Stand etc.
 
What you did before the game pub/chippy etc, and were the home fans friendly?
 
Having eaten in town I looked in at the adjacent ‘social club’, resisted the Irn Bru, Tennents etc but did purchase a programme (£2, 28 pages which sold out). I sat reading this at one of the four picnic-style benches that comprises the external Fans Zone waiting for the turnstiles to open at about 2.15pm. The £10 signs are yet to be updated to £12 paid at the gate and subsequent £2 transfer to “anywhere in the first four rows” of the home section. The catering outlet seemed well stocked but the Balmoral Pie at £3 had been crossed off the list that included:- steak/mince/macaroni pies (£2.50); Mars/Whispa etc bars (£1); Bovril (£2), Tea/fizzy drinks (£1.50).
 
What you thought on seeing the ground, first impressions of away end then other sides of the Balmoral Stadium?
 
Brian Scott’s photos on this site give a good picture of this compact ground including the nearby radio antennae. Along with major sponsors the advertising boards included ‘Oor Wullie’s Braw Fish & Chips,’ an unvisited charity trail venue because of location/time constraints. A light breeze and the shade in the stand made it a pleasant day for shirt sleeve watching but at pitch level the drinks breaks I’m sure were essential. The referee participated in this but not his less mobile assistants! The most bizarre sight was however continuous eruptions of rubber/sand whenever the ball touched the 4G surface. It looked like film special effects from a prolonged gunfight in a desert plus the strong sun also produced small shadows of the ball.
 
Comment on the game itself, atmosphere, stewards, pies, facilities etc..
 
Cove deservedly beat their higher league opponents thus displacing them to the bottom of the mini-league. As both seemed unlikely to qualify anyway, I am unaware of their relative squad choices and priorities. A Raith Rovers substitution after about an hour threatened to change the way the game was heading (2-0) but wayward shooting by others and an excellent third goal from distance sealed the result. There wasn’t a great deal of crowd noise and the lack of roof cover is detrimental to such ‘atmosphere' but the tannoy was loud and clear particularly the very late announcement of a half time substitution. I think the delayed 50:50 draw distracted things at a ground that seemed well organised and friendly.
 
Comment on getting away from the ground after the game:
 
I was away quickly after using the gents (room for 5 plus 2 wcs’s) and there was a steady stream of cars from the 791 attending including quite a few visiting fans. On time at 16:55 a No 18 bus took me a different route to town but (good ticketing choice) I stayed on board for a prolonged journey to Dyce to add another Wullie. Rail replacement bus services later took me to Inverurie for four more plus an unvisited Wetherspoons.
 
Summary of overall thoughts of the day out:
 
I enjoyed my weekend and wish Cove Rangers well in their inaugural ‘Scottish 42’ adventures. I don’t expect them to ever rise to match their big-city neighbours from (decaying) Pittodrie who I believe loaned them Antoniazzi one of the scorers. 
 
Unfortunately on Sunday the 09: 47 HST train became gradually more packed and delayed principally from people going to the Liverpool v Napoli (friendly) at Murrayfield for a 17:00? kick-off. Missed connections ultimately cost me an hour so the result was some small consolation, but who am I to criticise matches that people choose to attend and it would have been a new venue for me!
