It’s the big one! The Ospreys are in town, a crowd of more than 10,000 is packing into the Parc and there’s a huge amount going on so don’t miss out!
Here’s everything you need to know if you are coming to the game.
What time is kick-off?
The match kicks off at 3pm.
Can I buy tickets on the day?

Yes, the Castore shop is open from 10am until kick-off. Players will be in the shop for photos and autographs with fans at 1.30pm.
Where can I park?
Public parking is in Car Park B on the Trostre Park side. Cost is £5 per car on the gate with cash and card payment accepted. The car park gates open at 8am. Please do not park in residential streets around the Parc. We would also like to remind people not to park on grass verges around the stadium as this causes damage to the surrounding environment and also blocks routes used by the emergency services. Vehicles parked illegally may be clamped or towed away.
Please also be aware that neighbouring retail parks are operating parking restrictions using vehicle identification cameras. Fines will be issued for those who exceed the time limits.
The car parks are going to be really busy so please arrive early and give plenty of time for your journey if you have a long way to travel.

Yes we do, but we will not be accepting the old paper £50 and £20 notes.
