GAME DAY: Your guide to what’s going on at Braehead Arena THIS FRIDAY

While we’re celebrating the past in our Retro Night, it’s very much about the present for Glasgow Clan, sponsored by Aspray Glasgow West, with Dundee Stars in the building.

Only a point separates the two sides going into the weekend, so it’s very much a big game as we reach a very crucial stage of the season.

What will be will be on the ice, so we’re here to tell you what will be going on in and around the arena in what will be quite the night ahead.

Remember, tickets remain available online so make sure you get yours while you can.  Face off at 7:30pm, with doors opening at 6:00pm.

Alternatively, if you can’t be here, purchase our webcast, bringing you all the action from the game, priced at £12.50 by heading over to ClanIHC.tv.

Tonight’s match sponsors are our friends from Aspray Glasgow West.

The Stars are out in Glasgow

Stars coach Marc LeFebvre brings his team to Glasgow on the wrong side of the play-off line, so it’s every bit as big a night for them as it is for the Clan.

Form has gone against them in the last couple of months, winning only three of their last 15 outings, but they’re more than capable of taking the points from Braehead Arena.

They’ll want to make their mark on the game early so it has the makings of a Friday night cracker as the play-offs loom into view.

Box Office Open

The Braehead Arena box office is open between 3:00pm and 7:30pm, then for an extra 15 minutes at the conclusion of the game and we’re there to accommodate game day buyers due to the cost of living crisis.

However, where possible, fans are asked to continue to purchase tickets online in advance, but any sales at the box office will be at the same price as online sales.

As stated above, limited tickets are available, so book now to avoid disappointment.

Safety & Security

We’ll get the important bits of information out of the way first so please take a minute to read over the Safety and Security information for Braehead Arena, making sure you have an enjoyable night.
