PRE-MATCH LIGHT DISPLAY
Taking advantage of our final fixture under the lights before Christmas, we want to help build anticipation before the game even further, adding to the experience with a light display that incorporates both our floodlights and the built in lights within the stadium bowl.
With lights flashing, changing intensity and moving across the pitch and stands, supporters are advised to take their seats in good time to avoid missing the opportunity to be part of the build up.
Please note: If you suffer from photosensitive disorders, struggle with strobe lighting or have complications caused by flashing lights, you are advised to stay within the concourse and not take your seat until the display has finished. You will still have time to be seated before kick-off.
INCIDENT REPORTING
We have a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of discriminatory behaviour, including (but not limited to) racial, homophobic/transphobic, sexist, ageist or other discriminatory language or behaviour, and we are committed to making our Stadium incident-free.
If you hear or see something in person or online that you deem a discriminatory incident, CLICK HERE to learn all about the reporting lines open and available to you.
NO SMOKING / E-CIGARETTES
We would like to remind all supporters that the John Smith’s Stadium is a no smoking venue, with smoking strictly prohibited on all concourses and within all seated areas of the stadium, including electronic cigarettes.
