As gates open at 4.00pm, there will be live music in the concourse, Emirates cabin crew will be handing out thunder sticks and caps to all supporters, the ECB Cricket Factory will be open for youngsters to test their cricketing skills, as well as go karts, a golf bunker simulator, bouncy castles and face painters to keep fans entertained ahead of the game. There will also be our beach area which includes hot tub, beach bar, BBQ, ice cream van, beach volleyball and a surf simulator.
If you want to enjoy the game from our Dominos’ Best Seat in the House, there is still time to enter our competition that is running on our Facebook site – just search for ‘Durham County Cricket Club’s Group at www.facebook.com
Shortly before the start of the game the club will unveil the new stadium name. Pre-Match entertainment will also include our First Ball of the Game competition where one lucky fan could win £10,000, the ‘Emirates Upgrade’ which will see two lucky supporters have their ground admission tickets for the match upgraded to passes for corporate hospitality, fantastic fireworks and cheerleaders.
During the interval the Emirates Cabin Crew will return to the pitch for a further competition where they will be offering the chance to win a signed Durham Dynamos t20 shirt.
Over half of the tickets have already been sold for this game with the lower tier of the County Durham Stand almost completely sold out and the club is expecting a crowd of over 6,000 for the first time ever for a domestic game at Chester le Street.
