Magic Weekend - Spectator Information

Please find attached full information of everything going on at Magic Weekend.

OPENING TIME

The turnstiles open approximately 90 minutes before the first match of each day.

PASS OUTS

A pass out/return system will be operated on both event days allowing spectators to move freely to and from the stadium bowl – there is no limit on the number of times someone is allowed to pass out and re-enter.

Spectators leaving the stadium bowl with the intention of returning may do so but MUST first ensure that they have a hand stamp applied upon initial exit; if there is no evidence of a hand stamp re-entry will not be permitted. Hand stamps will be applied by stadium stewards. Dedicated exit and re-entry gates in each stand will be used to facilitate this operation. Different coloured hand stamps will be used for each level each day.

It is important that match tickets are not discarded; tickets need to be produced for re-entry if using the pass out system. Re-entry to the stadium bowl will be on production

SEATING

RESERVED
Spectators must ensure that they sit in their allocated seat(s). Although there may be adjacent seats that appear to be empty, it is likely that ticket holder hasn’t yet arrived or is elsewhere in the stadium.

UNRESERVED

It is important to note that if an unreserved seat is vacated, it may not be possible to return to the same seat at a later time. Certain seats or blocks within unreserved areas of the stadium bowl may be marked as RESERVED (e.g. close to wheelchair platforms and dug outs) and as such are not available to holders of unreserved seat tickets.

Spectators should ensure that they do not sit in any seat marked reserved if they have purchased a ticket for an unreserved area.

IDENTIFICATION FOR CONCESSIONS

If a concessionary ticket has been purchased, identification may be requested on entry. Holders of such tickets should ensure that they have appropriate ID with them.

FOOD & DRINK

Please note that no large amount of food can be taken inside the stadium from outside. The amount of food allowed will be at the discretion of Newcastle United staff. Bottles and cans are also not permitted.

CASH MACHINE

There is a Barclays ATM at St. James’ Park, enabling supporters to make cash withdrawals free-of-charge. The ATM is located in the exterior wall of the South West corner between the two entrances to The Terrace bar.
