Dress Code
The dress code for Executive Hospitality is smart casual with no football shirts permitted. As host for the day and to avoid embarrassment, we would ask you to ensure that your guests (with the exception of children) adhere to it, as we reserve the right to refuse entry to anyone who is unwilling to comply.

Alcohol Consumption
The licence regulations are as follows:

'It is against the law to drink alcohol in view of the pitch 15 minutes prior to kick-off, whilst the match is taking place, during half time and 15 minutes after the final whistle.'

All alcohol consumption must be done in the Far Post Bar and Centre Spot Restaurant. Please note that this is a legislation stipulation and we must ensure that we comply. If we fail to adhere, we are at risk of having our licence revoked. In addition, it is an offence to consume alcohol in view of the pitch, whether in the stadium itself or in a hospitality area, so doing so can ultimately lead to persons being 1) warned, 2) ejected and 3) arrested. Alcohol will not be served to anyone under the age of 18.

We very much appreciate your compliance with these regulations and ask that you continue to make your guests aware of this issue in the forthcoming season.

Smoking Regulations
Smoking is not permitted on any part of the stadium premises including the stadium car parks, spectator accommodation, bars, restaurants, office and work areas, whether occupied by one person or more.

Any spectator who wishes to smoke will have to leave the stadium premises and will not be re-admitted, in compliance with the Club's standard policy regarding access and readmission into the stadium.

Please ensure that your guests are fully aware of the new legislation, as non-compliance may lead to ejection from the ground.
