Bears v Royals In The FLt20 Is A Sell-Out

Edgbaston has today confirmed that all tickets have gone for the Friends Life t20 match against Worcestershire Royals on Friday 15 June, after giving away FREE tickets as part of a 20-day promotion with Marston's Pedigree.

Purchasing a Warwickshire Membership or Friends Life t20 season pass is now the only way to secure your seat at Edgbaston in what will be one of the most eagerly awaited clashes between the West Midlands rivals in years.

Colin Povey, Chief Executive of Edgbaston Stadium, said: "As part of our promotion with Marston's Pedigree, we were originally scheduled to give away a maximum of 10,000 tickets (500 each day) across the 20-day promotion. But after a phenomenal response, we were keen to distribute even more tickets and ensure that we have a packed Edgbaston that can get behind the Bears for our first home match of the tournament.

"The Friends Life t20 is fantastic entertainment that sports fans of all ages can enjoy, and the match on the 15 June will be a great spectacle, which I hope will encourage many more fans to support the Bears in the future."

After the match between the Bears and the Royals has finished, supporters can stay at Edgbaston to watch England's footballers take on Sweden in the European Championships live on two big screens installed especially for the event.

A season pass for the Friends Life t20 guarantees entry to all five group matches at Edgbaston and costs just £35 for Adults and £10 for Under 16s. For further details, please visit http://www.edgbaston.com or call the Ticket & Membership hotline on 0844 847 1902.
