Is it ok to have a puff when watching the footie?
The UK doesn’t actually have any laws stating that vaping is illegal anywhere. Instead, it’s down to the organisation that owns the building you’re in. Most businesses permit vaping wherever smoking is. But what about when you’re watching the footie? Can you vape at football grounds? Let’s find out.
Manchester City
Etihad Stadium
Smoking and vaping inside the Etihad Stadium are prohibited. In fact, you can get banned if you get caught, as one unlucky supporter found.
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
You can’t smoke or vape in the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. You can take them into the match, just don’t use them. You’ll have to wait until afterwards.
Arsenal
Emerates Stadium
As it says on the long list of prohibited items, the Emerates Stadium is a no smoking venue. Gunners supporters will have to wait for the final whistle.
Liverpool
Anfield
You can’t vape at Anfield. As is the case with the rest of these grounds, you can get kicked out if you’re caught. Wait until you’re outside the stadium.
Aston Villa
Villa Park
It’s a premiere league stadium, so you can’t vape inside Villa Park. Whether you’re supporting your local team or visiting, play it safe and avoid vaping.
Chelsea
Stamford Bridge
Once again, Stamford Bridge doesn’t allow vaping. You can’t even step out at halftime, so make sure that you have a good puff before heading inside.
West Ham
The London Stadium
Smoking and vaping aren’t allowed in the London Stadium and you can’t leave at half time. So make sure you have an alternative or use your e-cig before entering.
Newcastle
St James’ Park
You can’t vape or smoke at St James’ park. If you try, you’re going to risk being kicked out and possibly banned.
Crystal Palace
Selhurst Park
The last premiere league team on the list. Unfortunately, Crystal Palace don’t allow vaping at Selhurst Park.
Blackburn Rovers
Ewood Park
Despite Rovers being sponsored by Totally Wicked, Ewood Park doesn’t allow vaping inside. But, there is a smoking facility at half time.
Can You Vape At Football Grounds? No, in most cases anyway. The Premiere League require strict no smoking or vaping policies. Once you’re in, you’re going to have to wait until the match is over and you’ve left the stadium. Smaller clubs might allow it, but it’s always best to check before you go. Some people try stealth vaping, which is using a low power device to produce little vapour. It’s not worth receiving a ban. If you’re desperate for your nicotine, then you can always try lozenges, gum or pouches.
