Following today's final operations meeting we can confirm the following:
Ticket Sales
Queen of the South have sold roughly 1,600 tickets and will occupy the West (Main) Stand. Raith Rovers have sold roughly 2,300 tickets and will occupy the East Stand. Neither stand behind a goal will be open on the day.
The League have confirmed there is no facility to sell tickets at the stadium on the day. As such any QoS supporter who wishes a ticket to the game at this stage will need to buy in person at Palmerston. The Club Shop is open from 9:30am to 2:30pm Thursday and Friday for ticket sales. We have also now arranged an hour's opening from 10:30am to 11:30am on Saturday morning to assist any last minute decisions. That will be the final opportunity to purchase tickets for the game. There will be no Sunday sales.
Large Flags
As neither stand behind the goal will be open it has been agreed that supporters may bring large flags and lay them behind one of the goals. Queen of the South fans can arrange for flags to be laid behind the North Stand goal. Stewards will be aware and will accommodate requests to place flags.
Entry Requirements
As with general society now, there are no formal requirements to take any Covid test or carry a vaccine passport to attend this game. You may wish to do so though for your own peace of mind.
We have been asked to stress that drunkeness will not be tolerated and anyone arriving at the turnstiles intoxicated will be denied entry.
There is a large car park at the ground. Although the majority of it is taken up with permit holders, there will be some parking available to the public on a first come, first served, basis at £2 per car. If you wish to park at the stadium please arrive early. Otherwise there is plenty of other parking in the surrounding area.
The SPFL Trust and Electrify have arranged for pre-match and half time entertainment on the pitch also with circus performers, community footballers and a FFIT fans penalty shoot out, all of which should hopefully contribute to a great atmosphere. Lets all go and enjoy the game and hopefully bring back the trophy for a 3rd time!
