Rotherham United are in Sky Bet League One action on Saturday 11th December, when they welcome Burton Albion to AESSEAL New York Stadium for a 3pm kick off.
Ahead of the fixture with the Brewers, we’d like to remind supporters of some important information…
Arrive early
We would like to once again encourage supporters who are attending this fixture to arrive in plenty of time ahead of the 3pm kick off.
Having issued a similar message prior to our recent Sky Bet League One fixtures – which yielded a more positive outcome with supporters entering the turnstiles with greater ease – we are once again asking that fans arrive at AESSEAL New York Stadium in plenty of time and familiarise themselves with the new ticket scanning process at the stadium.
Tickets
Having ironed out a number of early teething issues which were experienced following the return of supporters, we are keen to ensure that our fan base is now up-to-speed with how to gain access using both season card and matchday tickets.
For those who are not yet familiar with the new turnstile access control system, we have produced the below video tutorial, which we hope will be hopeful to supporters prior to their arrival at the stadium.
AESSEAL New York Stadium Covid protocol update
Rotherham United are reminding supporters attending games at AESSEAL New York Stadium to bring a face covering, following recent Government announcement regarding the new measures which have been put in place.
Face-coverings must be worn while on the concourse at AESSEAL New York Stadium, with the exception of when you are eating or drinking.
These must be worn by all supporters over the age of 11, unless medically exempt, whilst entering the stadium and whilst in the concourse areas.
Rotherham United can confirm that supporters WILL NOT be required to show a Covid vaccination passport or proof of a negative lateral flow test for this Saturday's Sky Bet League One meeting with Burton Albion.
Supporters continue to be encouraged to follow Government guidance and should not attend AESSEAL New York Stadium if you have any symptoms of Covid or you are required to self-isolate.
Millers accepting selection box donations on Saturday as part of Firehouse Group's efforts for Mission Christmas
The AESSEAL New York Stadium will once again provide a pop-up drop-off point for Hallam FM’s Mission Christmas Cash for Kids appeal as we welcome donations of chocolate selection boxes at this Saturday’s game against Burton Albion.
Selection boxes can be dropped in the Firehouse Group gazebo, which will be located next to the Fanzone trailer on the North West corner of the stadium, under the AESSEAL New York Stadium sign.
The campaign is geared towards helping to make Christmas Day different for local children living in poverty.
All selection boxes should be new and unwrapped.
Santa Clause is in town!
Santa Clause is coming to town and he is a Miller, too!
Father Christmas will be on hand prior to the Burton Albion fixture at AESSEAL New York Stadium to meet and greet fans in his grotto located by the Fanzone on the North West corner of the Stadium.
Elior UK continuing to encourage card payments on stadium concourse kiosks
As we continue to work towards speeding up food and drink services on matchdays, our catering partners at Elior UK would like to once again encourage card payments on the concourse kiosks.
While cash will still be accepted, we would again like to take this opportunity to encourage fans to use card payments, which remains the quickest and most convenient way to pay on a matchday.
Having noted feedback from supporters about queuing times and whilst continuing to work closely with Elior UK, we remain committed to achieving the best supporter experience possible at AESSEAL New York Stadium.
Don Street to remain closed until December
We would like to remind supporters of the ongoing works on Don Street, which usually provides an access and egress route to and from the AESSEAL New York Stadium.
Access to and from the stadium via Don Street has been restricted since supporters returned for the 2021/22 campaign and following recent discussions with the Council, the club can confirm that Don Street will remain closed for both vehicles and pedestrians until all road and bridge works have reached completion.
New York Way will now be the primary access and egress route for vehicular traffic while pedestrians will continue to use New York Way and the car park located the rear of Riverside House.
We would once again like to thanks supporters for their patience and understanding regarding this.
