PARKING

People attending events at Ibrox Stadium should be aware that the roads around the stadium are mainly residential and there is very limited parking for private cars.

There will be dedicated free parking for cars and buses in the away support car park in Broomloan Road located near to the North West of the stadium which will be the access point for the away support. Police Scotland will facilitate the movement of coaches and other vehicles to the motorway at the end of the game. The Aberdeen support will be encouraged to park there by police and stewards, who will be in attendance throughout. Aberdeen supporters must ensure they attend at the parking area in sufficient time, with the stadium being approximately 5 mins walk from there.

Please be aware of Glasgow City Council Parking Controls – Event Day Parking Zone – which affects streets near to Ibrox Stadium and will come into force during all football matches. People must not park in streets near to Ibrox Stadium, which have been coned by Glasgow City Council.

ENTRY

Turnstiles will open 90 minutes before KO.

Aberdeen supporters will enter through turnstiles 76 and 77. Police and stewards will be on hand to carry out searches for prohibited items. Strictly no pyrotechnics please. Advanced CCTV equipment is in place at the stadium. DO NOT be tempted to throw any items. There is a good chance of being caught. Aberdeen supporters will be held back for 15-20 minutes at the end of the game to allow the majority of Rangers supporters to leave the area.

FLAGS

There will be limited room to display larger than normal flags. Surfing flags are not permitted. All flags will be scrutinised by the safety team before entry is permitted. Smoking is prohibited in the stadium. E-cigarettes are not permitted in the seated areas.

POST-MATCH TRAVEL ADVICE

The Aberdeen supporters should exit the car park turning right, north on Broomloan Road towards the M8 motorway, and will be assisted by the police motorcyclists. All vehicles within the car park will be held for a short time and will all leave in convoy. The advice is to stay clear of the M73/M74 area.

ROADSIDE VEHICLE CHECKS

In Scotland, it is an offence to possess or consume alcohol on board a public service vehicle, or a railway vehicle which is attending a designated sporting event. The legislation in relation to this is stated within section 19 of the Criminal Law (Consolidation) (Scotland) Act 1995. Police officers may carry out roadside vehicle checks at numerous locations prior to this event. Supporters’ coaches and vehicles may be stopped at these locations and may be subject of a thorough search to ensure this legislation is being complied with.

SPFL GUIDELINES

The Ibrox ground regulations will be displayed throughout the stadium. They are no different from our own at Pittodrie.
