Matchday Guide: All Together Now Stadium Light Up & Giant Wright To Be Remembered

Hill Dickinson Stadium will be illuminated in the rainbow colours of Everton's All Together Now campaign on Monday night as part of activity to celebrate the Club and Everton in the Community's long-standing equity and inclusion commitment.

Ahead of the Premier League game against Leeds United (KO 8pm), the Club will also pay tribute to former Everton and England defender Tommy Wright.

Fans will be invited to join in a period of applause before kick-off, as we remember one of Everton's finest. Wright, an FA Cup winner in 1966, league champion in 1970 and regular England international, passed away this week, aged 81.

In total, he made 374 appearances for Everton - his only club. Read more about his incredible career HERE.

Supporters are encouraged to be in their seats early to join in the tribute to a true Blues giant.

CLUB TO CELEBRATE ALL TOGETHER NOW

Monday’s game has been dedicated to raising awareness of All Together Now and, in addition to seeing the outside of the stadium take on the campaign's colours, All Together Now flags will be handed out to fans on the Budweiser Plaza and in the Family Stand.

Players from Everton in the Community's disabled teams will be welcomed on to the pitch at half time, while members of the Everton Disabled Supporters' Association [EDSA] will take part in the pre-match Higher or Lower and half-time Hit The Bar games. Click HERE for more details on the activities taking place ahead of, and at Monday’s game.

STADIUM ENTRY

Fans will be able to enter through the Regent Road wall from 5pm, with turnstiles opening at 6pm. The Ticket Office will be open from 10am.

Supporters are advised and encouraged to use ALL available gates in the Regent Road wall (A-E) to avoid the unnecessary build-up of supporters in any one area, and also ensure digital tickets are downloaded to mobile devices on arrival at the stadium. A full guide on downloading digital tickets, along with a stadium map, can be found HERE.

All relevant information to help plan your matchday, including our dedicated Travel Hub and more on food and drink, digital tickets, accessibility and what’s happening in and around the ground, is readily available at evertonfc.com/matchday.

MINOR BUS ROUTE CHANGES

Arriva have made minor route changes to the commercial bus services that serve Everton’s Hill Dickinson Stadium, which will now stop on Stanley Road/Scotland Road on match days. The revised routes, drop-off and pick-up points can be found HERE.

1878s FLAG DISPLAY

A flag display, organised by the 1878s Supporters’ Club, will also take place ahead of the game in the South Stand (Lower).

SAFEGUARDING OF MINORS

We respectfully remind supporters that all fans under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult at all times. This includes on The Budweiser Plaza, concourses and within the stadium bowl. Everton now offer safeguarding wristbands to adults bringing young children to all games at Hill Dickinson Stadium, as part of a matchday safety initiative. Read more here.

TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT TRIAL ONGOING

A Traffic Management Trial will again be in place following Wednesday’s game, which involves a temporary one-way system in place on Blackstone Street and Boundary Street, and road closures, both before and after the game.

For supporters driving or parking within the Boundary Street / Blackstone Street one-way system (from Great Howard Street through Shadwell Street, Winstanley Street and Barmouth Way), traffic in this area will be temporarily held for approximately 20 minutes after the final whistle to support the safe movement of supporters walking away from the stadium.

Fans are advised not to travel to the stadium by car, as these measures are in place to ensure those leaving the ground can move away from the area quickly and safely. Our Travel Hub, which also features in the guide, above, includes all relevant information and alternative travel options.

The Budweiser Plaza features a live DJ and, for the winter season, an increased number of food and drink outlets, expanded bar areas and festive touches. New hot food options from some recognised local vendors, not available inside the stadium, will be introduced, while additional E-Bars have been introduced to help speed up service. Full details of the enhancements are HERE.

SMOKING AND VAPING

Complaints have been received regarding smoking and vaping in the stands, toilets, and adjacent areas of Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Supporters are reminded that stadium signage clearly indicates that smoking and vaping (including electronic cigarettes) is strictly prohibited in all areas of Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Persistent smoking or vaping negatively impacts the matchday experience for fellow supporters and will not be tolerated.

Anyone found smoking or vaping inside the stadium may be ejected and could face further disciplinary action by the Club, including the withdrawal of a Season Ticket.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping to maintain a safe and enjoyable environment for all supporters.
