For this match the default way for season ticket members to access the stadium will be using an NFC mobile season ticket.
Season ticket members who requested a season card when purchasing their season ticket should use this to access the stadium on matchday. If you requested a season card and have not received it please e-mail ticketoffice@afc.co.uk
Season ticket members in Blocks C & D of the Main Stand will be relocated for this fixture and will receive paper tickets in the post for this match next week.

Initially 500 free tickets for gold and silver price zones will be available for this match on a first come first served basis and all members must be accompanied by an adult.

New season ticket package
A brand-new season ticket package is also in place for our remaining 18 matches and will start from the Ross County fixture. The new package offers fantastic value, particularly for U18s and has been discounted to account for one game being missed. Full information on season tickets can be found here.
COVID Restrictions
Unfortunately, due to current protocols set out by the Joint Response Group a red zone will remain in operation. In practice this means that Blocks C & D of the Main Stand will remain closed. Supporters in these sections have been contacted via e-mail to inform of alternative arrangements for this match.
To help relocate season ticket members with seats in these areas we will be unable to accommodate any away supporters as we look to offer comparable seats for season ticket members who will be displaced for this match.
As with the Breidablik & Qarabag matches there will no longer be a requirement to provide evidence of a negative lateral flow test before gaining entry to the stadium.
However, there will be staggered arrival times to control access to the stadium and safe movement when inside the ground. Supporters will also have to agree to the updated COVID-19 supporters code of conduct which can be found below.
Face masks must be worn in all indoor areas of the stadium and whilst there is no requirement for lateral flow tests to be carried out, we would encourage their use along with continued use of the Protect Scotland app and cashless payments in the club shop and at our kiosks where possible.
Matchday Information
Earlier this year our Women’s side made it back-to-back promotions under the management of Emma Hunter securing promotion to the top flight. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 restrictions at the time the Red Army were unable to share in that success so we are pleased to be able to share that our SWPL2 champions will be joining us for this fixture with a trophy parade taking place at half-time. Please be sure to show your appreciation for the Dons as they get set for the SWPL1 league opener with Celtic on Sunday 5th September.
Young supporters attending the match will have the opportunity to claim a giveaway from the club on matchday to help build the atmosphere and serve as a souvenir from the homecoming match and the reds will also receive a warm reception to the pitch, with your vocal support from the stands set to be backed up by a return of the pre-match flames at the Merkland end of the stadium.
Following the pre-season renovations in the Red Shed we are also looking forward to unveiling some more artwork recognising our history ahead of this fixture. Look out for more information on activity being announced in the days leading up to the match!
