The Amex and The Terrace were transformed into the most spook-tacular spot in Sussex as 300 junior season ticket holders and MyAlbion+ members were invited to a thrilling evening of football, fun, and fright at our Halloween signing session.
The Terrace which was filled with themed food and drink options including free toffee apples that proved a hit with young fans and their families. The children arrived dressed in their scariest costumes, ready to take part in the first of two costume contests.
There were face painters, a balloon artist and a photobooth to capture all the ghoulish getups. Fans also enjoyed interactive games and giveaways, from digital Piing challenges to a scavenger hunt that had little monsters exploring every corner of the venue.
The signing sessions began with three specially designed accessible sessions for disabled supporters and under-8s, ensuring everyone had a chance to meet their heroes in a calm and inclusive environment.
As the evening progressed, the scare factor was dialled up for older fans. The tunnel area was transformed into a haunted walkthrough complete with eerie lighting, creepy music, spine-chilling decorations and actors bringing the Halloween spirit to life. Fans were given behind-the-scenes access to the first team changing rooms and other exclusive areas, where they met players from both the men’s and women’s first teams, as well as under-21 stars.
Meanwhile, The Terrace continued to host fun activities including the hilarious mummy wrap race where fans wrapped staff members in toilet paper to create the ultimate undead look.
The evening concluded with a second costume contest, showcasing even more creativity and Halloween flair from our junior members.
