No Cash Turnstiles at Home Games - Ipswich Town News

Town have announced that there will be no cash turnstiles for home supporters at Portman Road from the start of the new season with fans paying on the day required to buy tickets from the Ticket Office on Constantine Road.

"The Matchday Ticket Office will be open from 9am on Saturday matchdays and from 6.15pm ahead of midweek evening games to deal with ticket sales, enquiries, upgrades and lost or forgotten season tickets for home supporters.""

Planet Blue will continue to sell tickets midweek and until 6.15pm for evening fixtures but not on Saturday matchdays.

"For a number of reasons we have switched from cash turnstiles to using the Matchday Ticket Office for purchases on the day,” Town’s head of ticketing, Donna Powell, told the club site.""

"Ideally we’d ask supporters to buy tickets online or in Planet Blue ahead of matchday but we urge those that want to leave it to matchday to buy, to arrive in plenty of time.”

Further to that change, the Ticket Enquiry Centre on Portman Road will be an away supporter ticket office only from this season where away fans are able to purchase tickets or alternatively pay cash on the turnstiles. "

Disabled fans who sit in a designated disabled area in the Co-op Stand or the Sir Alf Ramsey Stand will now enter via a new entrance next to the Matchday Ticket Office on Constantine Road. However, disabled supporters who sit in the Sir Bobby Robson disabled areas will use the same entrance as last season.
