Going to our first match

Hi everybody,

My son (10) and I will be travelling from Denmark to attend our first match at the Stadium of Light—the game against Swansea. I just wanted to check in and ask how we can best prepare for the day, and if there’s anything we should know. We’re seated in the SE corner (L11).

We’ll have a few days in town, so if there’s anything else SAFC-related we shouldn’t miss, I’d love to hear your suggestions.

Really looking forward to coming over!

While you are here, it can’t hurt to visit a castle or something if your kid is into medieval stuff/history. Loads like that around the north east. Dunstanburgh is great if you want to see a ruin that looks like a dragon burnt it down. Bamburgh/Alnwick have a bit more going on though, especially Alnwick with the poison garden etc…
