Turning Fans into friends
Play Away, Stay Away is sport's first ever fan-to-fan host community of like-minded supporters welcoming travelling fans to their homes in exchange for being hosted themselves on their away trips.
That's how we're turning fans into friends.

Why Stay Away when you Play Away?
Turn a fan into a friend
We don't use robots or fancy algorithms to match you with your host. We use a conscious and considerate personal approach to pair you with someone similar to you so you will make a friendship that lasts far beyond the final whistle.
Share stories about your favourite player, coach or moment and reminisce on previous matches and get ready to return the favour to your host for the reverse fixture.
Live like a local
We encourage all of our hosts to help their travelling supporters get to know their local area and make each away trip a truly unique experience. Hosts can cook for their guests, help them get to the stadium or just provide a few local tips on pubs, restaurants or attractions to visit whilst they're in town.
Never feel like a stranger away from home again.
Show Accommodation Costs the Red Card
No more extortionate hotel prices. No tireless searching through Airbnb listings. No late night trips home on the last train.
It's completely free to sign up and join our community of like-minded supporters and once you're a verified member, you can stay with one of our verified hosts on your next away trip for less than the price of a pint.

Success Stories
Bed For Away Fans
Borussia Dortmund vs AS Monaco, Champions League, 2017
The best example of the Play Away, Stay Away concept was the meeting between the German and the French side that lead to the successful and famous #bedforawayfans campaign that also forms the inspiration for our black & yellow brand colour scheme.
Adopt a Lion
Lions Tour of New Zealand, 2017
Age-old rivalries were cast aside when over 100 travelling Lions supporters who were priced out of local hotels and Airbnbs, were hosted by generous Kiwis on their 2017 tour in what became known as the 'Adopt a Lion' campaign.
Become Our Latest Signing
Speculation has emerged in today's media that YOU are expected to become the latest star signing for the rapidly-growing Play Away, Stay Away squad of like-minded supporters.
One pundit, Ed Spert O'pinion claimed that the stunning signing would be a big coup and would help the club to achieve their goal of showing accommodation costs the red card. We await further developments.
