The countdown to kick-off starts here! Take a look at everything happening around The Amex on this matchday.

Autographs and selfies

All players will not stop to sign or pose for selfies when arriving or leaving the stadium – as it is no longer safe to do so.

Instead, we will be offering a number of spaces for our junior season-ticket holders and MyAlbion+ junior members at every home matchday to come to the stadium early for enhanced selfie and autograph opportunities with the squad, in a safe environment as the players arrive.

Fanzone

DISCOBUG will be joining us in the fanzone for some pre-match tunes.

Get your matchday selfie in the photobooth located in the East Lower Stand.

The pre-match light show will be in the stadium bowl between 7.20pm and 7.26pm. Any supporters with concerns about flashing lights may wish to remain in the concourse during this time.

For those with sound sensitivity, please be aware that flames will fire as the teams walk onto the pitch, creating a loud bang and smoke.

Food & Drink

You can now use this handy map to find out where in the stadium you can get selected food & drink items.
