ACCESS TO BROOMFIELDS FOR ALL FANS
We are trialling a new strategy for fans accessing Broomfields.
Pre-match, Broomfields will be accessible via the exterior doors, meaning all fans outside the stadium can access retail, food, drink, and use the facilities inside until 4.45pm. At this time, Broomfields will be emptied and fans will be asked to enter the stadium via the turnstiles. Until kick off, Broomfields will be closed to those inside the stadium and fans can
head to Cookies Cabin for food, drink, and to use the nearby bathrooms. From kick-off, Broomfields will open to fans inside the stadium. The success of this trial will be reviewed ahead of London City v Everton on 18th October.
