Tickets for the A-League Pre-season friendly match between Melbourne City vs Western Sydney Wanderers on Friday October 12 at Shepparton Sports City are available for purchase from Riverlinks.
Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor Kim O’Keeffe said “To avoid missing out, or risk being in long queues, people should pre-purchase their tickets. Tickets will be available at the gate for a higher cost. I would encourage all the community to experience this opportunity to see some of the A-League heroes at our premier regional sporting facility,” said Cr O’Keeffe.
“I also encourage residents to car pool with an expected crowd of between 2,000 and 3,000 predicted to attend the match. Make sure you give yourselves enough time, arrive early so you can enjoy the new facilities and take it all in,” said Cr O’Keeffe.
Gates for the match will open at 4:30pm with kick off for the main game at 7:30pm. Council is currently working with local clubs to determine the possibility of a pre match with details to be released in the near future. There will be pre-match entertainment and full canteen facilities available.
You can purchase your tickets at the Riverlinks Box Office.
