Home Matches Now Not All-Ticket - Ipswich Town News

Town’s home games, starting with Saturday’s match against the MK Dons, will no longer be all-ticket, the club has announced.

In line with recommendations from the Safety Advisory Group (SAG), following the return of fans at the start of the season, fixtures at Portman Road had been deemed all-ticket.

However, following consultation with the SAG, tickets will now be available up until kick-off, although none will be sold on the turnstiles.

Town are still recommending that tickets, which are available here, are bought before matchday where possible and that fans should arrive well ahead of the start of the game.

All other Covid protocols remain in place with fans aged 11 and over required to provide a negative lateral flow test or proof on request of full vaccination. Vaccine cards or a photo of the card will be accepted as proof.

Supporters may also be asked to provide photographic ID such as a passport or driving license, while a bank card will be accepted as proof of ID if none available.

Children under the age of 13 years will not need ID but their accompanying parent or guardian should be able to validate their details.
