Norwich City host Ipswich Town in the East Anglian Derby in Saturday's early kick-off. Here's what's happening on the day.
Pre-game
- The Lion & Castle pub will open at 10am for Lower Barclay ticket holders, serving sausage and bacon baps, and drinks. City legend Bryan Gunn and former Ipswich player Simon Milton will be interviewed on stage at 11am.
- The 1902 bar outside the South Stand is open to home supporters from 10.30am
- Arrive early to take advantage of the 25 per cent discount on selected food and drink (available before 11.45am), from in-stadium kiosks, the Lion & Castle pub (Lower Barclay ticket holders only), and the 1902 bar.
- Junior FanZone is open from 11am-12pm over at Carrow Park opposite the South Stand, where any juniors with a match ticket can take part in fun activities.
Information from Police
Supporters should plan to arrive at the stadium earlier than normal to ease potential congestion from extra security and police presence. General admission turnstiles will be open from 11am, and kick-off will not be delayed for late arrivals.
It may be necessary for police to close roads for short periods of time before and after the match to allow fans to walk safely to and from the stadium. The usual road closures will also be in place around Carrow Road before and after the match.
Please follow @NorfolkPolice and @NorwichPolice on X for the latest advice and information in the run up to and on match day.
Ticketing
The club is aware of a small number of supporters offering to sell their ticket for this fixture. This is against the club's ticketing terms and conditions and may result in the cancellation of the supporter's season ticket and/or a sanction (including a ban) for the season ticket holder.
Away supporters must only attend the fixture with a valid ticket in the away section; away supporters found in home sections will be ejected from the ground and reported to Ipswich Town FC.
Rail disruption
Greater Anglia has advised supporters from both sets of clubs of the need to plan ahead and allow extra time to travel to the game, due to industrial action taking place that day.
Full information can be found on the Greater Anglia website, here.
