Figure image
Leicester Tigers host Italian visitors Aironi Rugby as European rugby returns to Weford Road this Saturday (3.40pm kick-off).

Heineken Cup pool fixtures are included in Tigers season tickets. All other supporters can book their places at the Tigers ticket office. Phone 0844 856 1880 and pick up your tickets from the collection point outside the Caterpillar Stand on your way to the game.

Or call in at Welford Road. The office is open 8.30am-5pm weekdays, until 8pm Wednesday and from 9am on matchday.

Supporters can also book online any time and pick up tickets from the collection point on Saturday.

All turnstiles, bars and food outlets at Welford Road, including the Final Whistle, are open from 1.40pm.

Special early bird prices are available in the Final Whistle bar as the first 1,000 pints served – including Everards Tiger, Tiger Smooth, Heineken, Carling and Guinness – are priced at £3. This offer is available on draught beers sold in the Final Whistle only.

The Tigers Club Store sale continues in the shop at the Clubhouse End and merchandise units outside the ticket office and on the ground floor of the Caterpillar Stand.

Pick up a copy of the Tigers match programme and you could win a special prize with John Lewis.

In this week’s programme, we talk to the Tuilagi brothers Alesana and Manu about their rugby dynasty and their experiences at Tigers while also hearing the views of Aironi skipper Marco Bortolami ahead of the game.

We’ve also got fan photos from the trip to Belfast last weekend, Prima Cup previews, and al the news from Welford Road. The 100-page programme is available throughout the stadium (£3).

The Junior Tigers Club VIP area of Final Whistle is open and members can enjoy a free milkshake from the exclusive Crusha milkshake bar. Activities to keep young supporters entertained are free to all members and we’ll have a first-team player appearance during the afternoon too.

JTC membership is free and open to all supporters aged under 16. Come and sign up this weekend.

The ticket office is open all day Saturday for match tickets sales for all home games and 2012/13 season ticket sales –you can spread the cost of season tickets with interest-free direct debit – and there is an extra ticket office inside so you can book for future matches even after you have accessed the stadium.

Places are available on Tigers matchday buses run in conjunction with Arriva from Market Harborough, Oakham and the new T3 from Nuneaton and Hinckley. Click here for more details and timetable.

Resident Tigers band Rock Bottom provide the live music in Final Whistle after the game and the bars will remain open.

Remember, Saturday’s game is a 3.40pm kick-off. See you then.
