A brand-new 1600-capacity fanzone has been announced for Scotland’s World Cup games, bringing a festival-style event to East Kilbride for an unforgettable matchday experience.
Hosted within Caledonia Gladiators’ Arena at Playsport, the Scotland Match Day Village event has been created for supporters of all ages, with fun for the full family throughout the evening.
The event will run across Scotland’s two 11pm kick-offs for the game vs Morocco on 19 June and against Brazil on 24 June. Both events will commence from 7pm featuring an exciting mix of entertainment, food, and football across indoor and outdoor spaces. Attendees can look forward to:
- Outdoor and indoor family fun zones
- A Street Food Village in partnership with Big Feed Glasgow
- Live music and entertainment throughout the event
- Huge screens within the 1600-seater basketball arena
- A lively Sports Bar
- Market stalls and official merch
- VIP Lounge and On-Court Hospitality upgrades
Early-bird tickets go on sale at 9am tomorrow (Friday 13 February), priced from ?10 for both The Saltire Stand or The Thistle Stand – each offering outstanding views over the giant arena screens.
For fans looking for something extra, On-Court Hospitality is available at just ?35pp, including private tables of ten, sharing platters, pitchers of beer, soft drinks, queue-jump food service and exclusive on-court access unavailable to standard ticket holders.
Pippa Dickson, Head of Commercial at Caledonia Gladiators, said: “Whether you’re a lifelong member of the Tartan Army or joining for your first major tournament, the Scotland Match Day Village will deliver an atmosphere like no other – open to all and with something for everyone.
“With a 1,600-seater Arena and Event Space, and as one of Scotland’s leading professional sports teams, it felt like a no-brainer to create a space for people of all ages to celebrate Scotland’s success. We’re excited to bring an event like this to East Kilbride – creating a village that brings Scotland together to back our World Cup efforts.”
Earlybird tickets are limited and expected to sell quickly. Standard pricing will rise to ?12pp for an individual ticket or ?40pp for a table of ten once earlybird allocation sells out.
