Gloucestershire v Somerset - Visitor information

17 June 2015

We welcome Somerset Cricket and their supporters to the Bristol County Ground on Friday 19 June for our fourth home NatWest T20 Blast match of the season.

We are advising supporters to arrive at the ground early to avoid any congestion at the Bristol County Ground. Gates open at 3.30pm, so grab a drink, get a seat and enjoy the build up!

Dear Supporter,

We’re looking forward to seeing you on Friday 19th June for the sell-out Natwest T20 blast match between table-topping Gloucestershire and local rivals Somerset.

With 8,000 fans expected at the Bristol County Ground for the match we’ve pulled together some visitor information which should make your journey to the ground easier and your time at the ground more enjoyable. In particular, we strongly recommend you arrive as early as possible and also avoid coming by car as parking for the match will be extremely limited, even for those with annual car park passes. We have provided a park and ride service for this match, see below.

Aside from the cricket there is plenty to look forward to on the night, including a huge range of food and drink options, giveaways galore, our Thatchers “apple run”, the St. Austell “top deck” and for the first time ever at the Bristol County Ground, a gunge tank!

Please ensure you have your Membership cards and tickets ready on the night to speed up your entry into the ground and make the most of our “cricketeers” and stewards who are there to help you with any questions you may have.

We hope the information below is of use, please keep an eye on the website for any updates over the next 24 hours and most of all we look forward to seeing you tomorrow for what should be a fantastic evening.

All the best,

Will Brown (Chief Executive)
