wheelchair and pram storage

Supporters who wish to store a wheelchair, pram or mobility scooter can bring it to the Stadium main reception where a member of the SP Energy Networks Scotstoun Squad will store it for them. Due to space there is a limit to the number of items that can be stored, therefore this will be operated on a first-come-first served basis.

You can find out more about all our accessibility services across Scotstoun Stadium here.

Macon Store

The Macron Store at the South East gate will be open from 4pm.

Origin Round

Together with league organisers, BKT United Rugby Championship, we are celebrating the origin clubs all our women’s and men’s players first started playing rugby at.

This is also a part of our full year of club celebrations. On the day, both teams’ players will wear their origin club, or adopted club socks.

We’re encouraging supporters to wear their own local club colours too, jerseys, scarves and hats. So don’t forget to bring yours.

Players and coaches from the grassroots game will also get involved with other activities, including the Glasgow and Strathclyde University teams delivering the match ball and our latest Community Spotlight winner presenting the Player of the Match medal.

Food bank collection

This match day is our next foodbank collection. At Scotstoun we’re collecting donations for our local community centre, Heart of Scotstoun.

This time around, we’d like to turn this into a wider food drive with our clubs and invite clubs across Glasgow, the West and Caledonia, also to collect for a local organisation near you.

If you  are a rugby club and able to take part in this food drive. We’d be delighted if you could share some imagery collecting at your club, or dropping off the collection, and with details about who you’ve donated it to. Please share the images and tag Glasgow Warriors, and those you’ve donated to on social media.

SP Energy Networks Community Pitch

This week on the SP Energy Networks Community Pitch, at the west side of the stadium, there are games between Howe of Fife, Dundee, Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes. Also, our sponsor KubeNet will be running their annual Mini Festival.

Tennent’s Best Seat in the House

Supporters can sign up for the chance to win the Tennent’s Best Seat in the House (formerly Chair of Champions). This is an extra special hospitality package with the most comfortable seats the stadium has to offer, and food and drink brought to you.

More information on this will be shared very soon.

The Clubhouse

The Clubhouse is situated in the main Leisure Centre. It will be open from 6.30pm until kick-off and then again from full-time to 10pm.

To get to The Clubhouse, pass the entrance to Club KubeNet and take a right at the back of the Leisure Centre and follow the signage from there. SP Energy Networks Scotstoun Squad volunteers will be available to direct you if required.

There will be Q&As with both the men’s and the women’s Glasgow Warriors players, at roughly 6.45pm.

Supporters can move between the stadium and Clubhouse, via the north east gate, once they’ve scanned their ticket and entered the ground. Please note alcoholic drinks cannot be taken between the Clubhouse and the Stadium.

Passing Challenge

The Glasgow Warriors Passing Challenge is in the Warriors Pavilion this week, with supporters able to test their passing skills against Glasgow Warriors players.

Autograph Book

Our 28-page autograph book will be on sale around the stadium. It is £4 per book, with all profits going to our Fighting for Our Families campaign for Glasgow Children’s Hospital.

Look out for SP Energy Networks Scotstoun Squad who will be selling them. The book can be purchased with contactless payment only.

There will also be a chance to collects autographs with non-playing members of the squad out-and-about around the stadium.

Food and Drinks

We have various independent Scottish food and drink suppliers, all with vegan and gluten free options or alternatives. Each vendor makes their food to order with the finest locally sourced produce, this may mean at times you have to wait a little longer for your food to be prepared.

From this match and over the winter we’re serving soup in the North Stand kiosks. Bovril is also back, and can be purchased across the stadium.

We are working with all our food and drinks vendors to better manage queueing times. The closure of the in-venue Clubhouse has created pressure in the stadium bowl. The vendors are helping us with this adding additional personnel to their trucks where possible, and we are spending time on match days understanding where the main pinch points are to improve those.

With gates opening an hour and a half before kick-off and so that you can have the most enjoyable match day experience possible, we are encouraging supporters to leave plenty of time to arrive, collect food and drink, enjoy the entertainment on offer and find your seats.

Please note: At Glasgow Warriors events we are obliged to follow Glasgow City Council licensing regulations delivered at all Glasgow sports events. This means all drinks served at our kiosks and food vans are decanted into cups.

Please note: Not all food vans will be available from 4pm, everything will be available from 6pm.
