The Ulster Rugby Fan Zone at Kingspan Stadium opens at 1.15pm this Saturday.

As soon as you arrive, look out for our Welcome Team who will greet you with our new free Ulster Rugby flags to get you in the spirit. Arrive early, as flags may run out. Then, head over to the Fan Zone to sample a variety of cuisines while the Cool FM crew sets the tone with their pre-match playlist.

Keep an eye out for the Tayto Team at the Memorial Arch corner - they're giving away free bags of crisps - don’t miss out.

Join us in the Nevin Spence Centre for a magical pre-match experience at Santa’s Grotto! Enjoy festive-themed craft activities and meet beloved Christmas characters, including special guests The Grinch and Buddy the Elf. Fun for all ages – everyone is welcome to join in the Christmas cheer!
