Plough Lane opened in 2020, bringing AFC Wimbledon back to a ground on the historic Plough Lane site after the long Kingsmeadow years. Cherry Red Records holds stadium naming rights.

What happens here

  • AFC Wimbledon League One, FA Cup and EFL Cup home matches.
  • Matchday hospitality, kiosks and stadium pub.
  • Fan Zone traders and non-matchday events.

Who runs hospitality and catering

Aramark UK is AFC Wimbledon’s catering partner at Plough Lane from July 2025, covering hospitality, kiosks, the stadium pub and management of independent Fan Zone traders under a multi-year deal.

What’s it like to work here

Apply via Aramark UK careers routes rather than the club alone. A strong south-west London League One option for staff in Wimbledon, Tooting, Earlsfield and Merton.

What to verify before applying

Aramark announced a multi-year AFC Wimbledon catering partnership starting in July 2025. The scope covers the stadium’s food and beverage outlets, including hospitality, kiosks, the pub and management of independent Fan Zone vendors. That makes Aramark the main route for most food-service roles, while AFC Wimbledon still handles club, football, ticketing and office vacancies separately.

For applicants, the important detail is the outlet. A stadium pub role, kiosk role and hospitality role all sit in the same building but have different pace, age rules and shift lengths. Aramark has also advertised AFC Wimbledon food and beverage opportunities for the 2026/27 season, so check whether the post is casual matchday work, a full-time kitchen position or event support. If the advert mentions Fan Zone traders, confirm whether you work for Aramark, the trader or an agency.
