Ahead of the big Boxing Day Mid-Ulster derby between Portadown and Glenavon in the Sports Direct Premiership at Shamrock Park we would encourage those attending to please read the following points that will help make everything run as smoothly as possible on Match Day.

 

  • Away fans are requested to park considerately on the Armagh Road. Please do not block access to premises or private dwellings. All buses should approach the stadium from the Armagh Road where there will be a drop off zone.

 

  • Please arrive early to the ground as delays are expected due to the sell-out crowd.

 

  • Please DO NOT arrive to the game if you do not have a ticket, the game is TICKET ONLY with NO cash turnstile available with the game being SOLD OUT a few weeks ago.

 

  • Have your ticket ready when entering the ground, if it is on your phone/tablet please make sure your display is on full brightness as this allows the scanner to pick up the QR code quicker.

 

  • If your ticket is on your mobile/tablet, download or screenshot the e-ticket before leaving as there is no public Wi-Fi to download when at the ground. This will save time when entering.

 

  • Please show patience when entering the ground and getting your e-ticket scanned, we will make sure everyone can enter Shamrock Park in a safe and timely manner.

 

  • All supporters may be subject to a search. Any supporter found to have flares/fireworks in their possession will not be admitted to the ground and may be arrested immediately by the PSNI on duty on the day and prosecuted which will result, if convicted, in a permanent criminal record and banning order.

 

  • It is an offence to enter the playing area including the perimeter.

 

  • Anyone found to have alcohol in the stand or within view of the playing area will be removed immediately from the ground.

 

  • To ensure this fixture is a safe and enjoyable experience please follow all instructions from the Police and stewards at all times.

 

  • Home supporters will be required to wait between 5 and 10 minutes at the conclusion of the game to allow the away supporters to disperse from the ground.
