Digital Ticketing
Saturday sees the introduction of digital ticketing at the Riverside for a select group of Season Card holders, the first stage of a phased rollout which will take place during the 2023/24 campaign.
The first supporters who are being introduced to digital ticketing are NEW SEASON CARD HOLDERS for 2023/24, as well as those who have MOVED SEAT or CHANGED PRICE TYPE for the new season.
All of those who are in the above category and are therefore valid for digital ticketing should have received communication from the club with information and steps to get set up, which we would urge you to do as soon as possible, and before you leave for the Riverside on Saturday.
If you haven't received any communication, there's also all the info you need within our dedicated help section on digital ticketing, including guides on how to get started, what to expect when you get to the Riverside, and more.
You can also watch below as Mark Motley from the Middlesbrough Supporters Forum takes you through everything you need to know.
The majority of Season Card holders are not in any of the three categories above, and therefore can continue to use their existing, physical Season Card.
In a slight change, please tap the Season Card to the reader (pictured below, rather than inserting into the mouth of the reader as previously), after which the reader will light up green/orange and grant access. (Paper single-match tickets still use the mouth of the reader)
Programme
Our #UTB matchday programme has a new look for the 2023/24 season with plenty of extra reading material.
The issues will be available to purchase around the stadium on matchdays and in the club shop.
You can also buy a seasonal subscription from the club’s official publishing partners Ignition Sports Media.
MFC Official
The club shop will be open from 9am until kick-off and again for a period after the full-time whistle.
There you can purchase the new home shirt as well as this season's official training wear.
Pre-orders for the new away shirt are available online only from MFC Official Direct.
A Moment Of Remembrance
There will be a moment’s applause ahead of the game to remember all those who are sadly no longer with us, and both teams will be wearing black armbands in memory of the late Millwall chairman John Berylson, who sadly passed away earlier this summer.
