The view

Position and angle

Derbyshire’s map labels family and general reserved areas, while its May 2026 match guide reserves the family seats and leaves other stands unreserved. Check the allocation for your actual fixture. Use the official Derby seating plan to place OurCoop Stand against the wicket and the neighbouring banks. OurCoop Stand: the highlighted plan here is a schematic, so the club’s ticket map remains the reference for choosing the individual seat.

Seating and rows

The current map places the reserved family and general areas beside the Media Centre. OurCoop Stand: individual row ranges, restricted-view seats and row-by-row step-free routes are TBC in the published material. Ask the ticket office to check the offered OurCoop Stand seat if steps, a railing or an uninterrupted view would affect your visit.

Cover and summer light

OurCoop Stand has open seating without a roof. OurCoop Stand: bring sun protection and a waterproof layer for a full day outdoors. OurCoop Stand: the Morning and Afternoon values follow the north-up ground orientation and the direction these seats face. For OurCoop Stand, the nearest boundary and the row height affect what you see; shade from a roof or neighbouring structure changes as the sun moves.

Neighbouring seating

Food, drink and toilets

At OurCoop Stand, Derbyshire’s club-managed match sales are cashless. Check the fixture guide for the outlets and water-refill points open at the Pavilion, Boundary Bar and Elite Performance Centre. The Media Centre nearby is a useful landmark, but its rooms are not included simply because your seat is next to the building.

Before visiting OurCoop Stand, check Derby’s food, drink and bag rules for your match format. Food: Own food and refreshments allowed in the published One-Day Cup guide. Alcohol: No own alcohol at T20; permitted county guide specifies four standard cans, wine policy varies by fixture. Glass: Current glass rule TBC.

Who it suits

OurCoop Stand is worth comparing if you prefer northern angled view from this part of Derby. Our practical advice is to decide on shelter, the cricket angle and any access requirements before selecting a row.

Tickets

Buy OurCoop Stand through Derbyshire’s official match-ticket route. The published 2026 Championship example was £17 for an adult in advance, free for juniors up to fifteen and £5 for students or ages 16–24. Those dated prices are not a 2027 OurCoop tariff; the individual 2027 seat prices and sale dates are TBC.

For OurCoop’s Blast family places, select the reserved family category. The separately described alcohol-free zone is between the Media Centre and Marquee; check rather than assume every OurCoop seat is within it. Other ordinary outdoor seating is generally unreserved under the club guidance, subject to the sections opened. Championship arrangements can differ from a busy Blast evening; use the ticket’s named allocation and the current matchday guide.
