Bloomfield Road has been Blackpool’s home since the late 19th century and sits a short hop from the Pleasure Beach. The ground is mid-sized by League One standards, with ongoing East Stand work adding more premium and concourse capacity over time.
What happens here
- Blackpool FC League One, FA Cup and EFL Cup home matches.
- Matchday hospitality packages and executive boxes.
- Conferences, banqueting and private hire across 17 function rooms.
Who runs hospitality and catering
Blackpool FC runs hospitality and events in-house at Bloomfield Road. The club’s hospitality sales team recruits for suites such as Club Matthews, Club 1953 and executive boxes, with specialist suppliers supporting individual events.
What’s it like to work here
Matchdays feel seaside-specific: staff and supporters often combine tram, train and car journeys, and the hospitality offer is club-led rather than outsourced to Levy or Sodexo. A good fit if you live on the Fylde coast and want regular League One shifts without commuting to Manchester.
What to verify before applying
Bloomfield Road is not just a standard Saturday ground. Blackpool FC has published stadium and training-ground development updates covering East Stand structural work, seating refurbishment, new media facilities and safe-standing-style rail seating in the North Stand. Those upgrades matter for staff because construction phases, stand openings and hospitality capacity can change where kiosks, bars and stewarding posts are needed.
Apply through Blackpool FC or venue/event channels unless a named contractor appears in the advert. Check whether the role is matchday hospitality, concourse service, event setup, stewarding or facilities work. Seaside travel also matters: Blackpool South is closest, but late finishes after evening games or events may be easier by tram, bus, taxi or car share than by rail. Confirm finish times before relying on the last train.
