DJ Dan will be back in the Fan Zone for this Valentine’s Day fixture as he builds the atmosphere ready for fans to enter the John Smith’s Stadium in time for kick-off at 7.45pm.
Magic Rock will once again be joined by Burger Burger, Smart Coffee, and Liv’s Bakes ‘n’ Cakes, alongside our Heineken Bar and Roll-Over Hot Dog Cart for Terriers looking to grab some food and drink before the game.
Food bought within our Fan Zone can be taken into the ground, however, any purchased alcohol must be consumed outside.
Supporters wishing to purchase a Golden Gamble ticket can do so online, at our retail kiosk in the Fan Zone, or from one of our sellers who can be found in various locations around the John Smith’s Stadium.
‘CHALLENGE 25’ IN EFFECT AT THE JOHN SMITH’S STADIUM
Supporters are reminded that we operate the Challenge 25 policy at the John Smith’s Stadium for all supporters purchasing and drinking alcohol across both our Fan Zone and stadium concourses.
Should you be fortunate enough to look under 25, please do not be offended when asked and be prepared to your photographic identification as proof of your date of birth.
Underage drinking, and supplying minors with alcohol, is a crime, and will not be tolerated at the John Smith’s Stadium.
Challenge 25 is a retailing strategy that encourages anyone who is over 18 but looks under 25 to carry acceptable ID (a card bearing the PASS hologram, a photographic driving license or a passport) if they wish to buy alcohol.

COMMUNITY HUB
Located opposite the Legends Bar and Café, our Community Hub is home to table football, PlayStations, and colouring areas.
Open from 5.30pm, the Community Hub features a balloon modeller and face painter to make sure your Young Terrier stands out in the crowd and looks the part while supporting Town.
Available to under 18s only, children must be accompanied by an adult to gain entry.
Please note: Our Community Hub is an activity zone and not a retail space, so for all other retail items – clothing, replica shirts and training wear – please visit the HTAFC Shop situated next to the Ticket Office or the retail unit in the Fan Zone.
