Don’t miss out
If you have not booked your tickets yet, what are you waiting for? It’s the biggest game of the season so far and it’s right on Tigers’ doorstep at the Walkers Stadium.
Prices are from £24 adults, £22 concessions and just £14 for juniors. Make this an Easter weekend to remember.
The Tigers ticket office is open all this week from 8.30am to 5pm, and will be open from 9am on matchday if tickets remain available.
Don’t leave it too late if you haven’t booked. Call the Tigers ticket hotline on 08701 28 34 30 or call in at Welford Road.

Ticket collections
All supporters are encouraged to collect pre-booked tickets from the Tigers ticket office before Saturday if at all possible. Please do not leave it too late.

Food and drink
If you usually meet up with friends inside Welford Road, then this weekend doesn’t need to be any different.
The Captains Bar will be open from 12noon and the Tiger Bar will open at 1pm.
Food will be available inside the ground and in the Tiger Bar.
Bars will close at Welford Road 30 minutes before kick-off. Please remember to allow enough time to move on to the Walkers and find your seats in good time before kick-off.

Watching brief
Kick-off your Heineken Cup weekend with live TV coverage at Welford Road of the first quarter-final between Cardiff Blues and Toulouse. The match will be shown on the big screen in the Tiger Bar. Kick-off is at 3.30pm.

What about the kids?
The Junior Tigers Club, including three facepainters, will be based in the ABC Bar in the Crumbie Stand at Welford Road on Saturday, opening from 3.30-5.30pm. Call in on your way to the big game.

Last-minute shopping
The Tigers Club Shop will be open at Welford Road from 9am on Saturday. Select from the whole range of replica kit, training and leisurewear and souvenirs. And wear your colours with pride at the Walkers Stadium.
For last-minute shopping, a mobile club shop will be located outside the Walkers Stadium which will be open up to kick-off.

Walk on
Turnstiles at the Walkers Stadium will be open from 4pm. Please allow sufficient time to make your way to the stadium, find your entry turnstile and your seat, especially if you are not familiar with the venue. And don’t forget your match ticket!

Show of strength
Tigers supporters have created a fantastic atmosphere on our previous visits to the Walkers Stadium and we want you to be that all-important 16th Man again.
We’ll be providing red, white and green Tigers flags inside the stadium and you can add to the spectacle by wearing your club colours with pride.

Read all about it
The match programme will be available from Welford Road and at the Walkers Stadium, packed with information, interviews and features on your favourite rugby club.

Curry night
Welford Road will re-open its doors after the final whistle and we’ll be staging a Curry Night in the Tiger Bar. Re-live the TV coverage of the afternoon’s action on the big screen, enjoy a curry and listen to resident band Rock Bottom.
