Please leave home in plenty of time to get to the game. Supporters should check Traffic Scotland for updates on any incidents or road works.  There are road works on the A90 Northbound at Brechin and between Netherton Tractors and Nether Careston which could delay travel home.  Coach parking is at Caird Street/Beckford Street.

The Dons support t will be accommodated in the North Stand with tickets allocated seating. Turnstiles 7 – 12 will be in operation.

Turnstiles will open at 6.45pm.

Disabled supporters can enter via the exit gate adjacent to turnstile 12. Those ambulant can use the stairs to enter the North Stand or those in wheelchairs can use the spaces behind the goal at ground level trackside.
