New Family Area gets set for debut

A designated family area will be located in the Richard Donald Stand Upper Block 5 starting from our first home league match of the season with St Mirren on Saturday 6th August!

Over the summer local artist Reckless Graffiti has been commissioned to freshen up this part of the stadium (See below) and give the area a family feel with new artwork following on from similar work in the Red Shed last summer.

On matchday’s supporters in RDS Upper Block 5 will get to enjoy a family friendly atmosphere with entertainment such as face painting in place for kids along with regular visits from our mascots Angus the Bull, Donny the Sheep and Robbie the RAM!

Members of our Supporter Engagement Team on hand to look after the entertainment and ensure that everyone has as much fun as possible and our catering partner BaxterStorey will also have a kids meal deal on offer.

This area has been selected to enable larger families and groups to find seats together, something that is difficult to do in the lower sections of the stadium apart from the uncovered areas in the South Stand which are open to the elements all year round. Having welcomed many Dons Day Out groups, AberDNA Junior members and first time attendees to the RDS upper already last season we are looking forward to improving their experience with a dedicated space for families this season.

Around 450 places will be available in the family area for each home league match starting with the visit of St Mirren on Saturday 6th August.

Tickets for that match are on sale now are on sale now with FREE tickets available for all Under 12s through AberDNA Junior. Tickets can be purchased online, by calling 01224 63 1903 or by visiting the Pittodrie Ticket Office Monday – Friday 9.30am – 5pm or Saturday 9.30am – 3pm.
