MEET THE PLAYERS
ENTERTAINMENT As it’s our annual family fixture, we’ll have a busy Fan Zone with face painting, a climbing wall, the RiverRock Passing Challenge and live music from our radio partner Cool FM. There will also be live music from David Wright in the Clubhouse Bar. DALE FARM GIVEAWAYS Dale Farm, proud sponsor of Ulster Rugby, needs your help in rounding up its herd of mini cows at the game. Thousands of pounds worth of prizes are up for grabs if you can locate one of the 100 ‘Lucky Cows’ with a golden sticker underneath. So check under your seat, over your shoulder and in nooks and crannies around the stadium. If you do find one of the Lucky Cows, bring your Lucky Cow to the folk at the Dale Farm stand in the Fan Zone. Each Lucky Cow has an individual number assigned on the golden sticker so you can claim your prize. You could win an exclusive meet & greet with the team, match tickets, merchandise, dinner vouchers or even a £500 flight voucher towards your next holiday!

The 3-minute clip features highlights of the players’ pre-match routine, including the team talk by captain Rory Best, as well as on-pitch action and reaction from the crowd. Please visit the Seminar Room, which is accessed through the side entrance of the Abbey Insurance Family Stand, before the match. Click here for more information. LISBURN COMMUNITY CHOIR Lisburn Community Choir will entertain us from the corner of the Memorial Stand and East Terrace with a variety of pieces before the match and at half time, including some African music and a new rendition of 'Stand up for the Ulster men'. IRFU CHARITABLE TRUST COLLECTION Ulster supporter Michael Dickson has pledged to walk from Kingspan Stadium to Aviva Stadium in advance of Ulster’s Heineken Champions Cup quarter-final against Leinster next weekend, in order to raise awareness and funds for the IRFU Charitable Trust. The Trust was formed in 1978 to assist severely injured rugby players in their everyday lives, and help to restore their confidence and independence. Michael will be in the Clubhouse Bar from 4.30 to 5.15pm, collecting for this worthy cause. Please give generously. You can also donate online here. HERE’S WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A MATCH NIGHT…
