The Black Lion is organising this as an 18+ event. Because of the nature of the venue and the expected interest in the match, they have implemented a ticketing system. These tickets are available for those who want priority access, which helps with queue jumping upon arrival. However, it is important to note that holding a ticket does not guarantee entry if the pub reaches its maximum capacity. It is a first-come, first-served situation once the venue is full, so arriving early is the only way to ensure you get a spot inside.
The match kicks off at 21:00. Entry to the event is free, meaning there is no cover charge to watch the game. The pub is positioning this as a high-energy environment for football fans, focusing on the technical aspects of the screening like the surround sound and the projector setup to ensure the game is the main focus of the evening. Whether you are watching from the interior bar area or the heated garden, the setup remains consistent across the venue. If you are planning to head down, remember to bring your ID given the 18+ restriction, and keep in mind that the priority access tickets are the best way to manage your entry, even if they do not override the venue's capacity limits.
