THE Blues will be getting into the festive spirit this weekend to celebrate the final visit to Goodison Park before Christmas.
Ahead of Everton’s kick-off against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, there will be a special treat in store for junior supporters as Blue Santa and his reindeer will be at the stadium to meet them.
Blue Santa will arrive on his sleigh with his reindeer at 1pm to wish supporters a very merry Christmas.
The Salvation Army band and youngsters from St Sebastian’s and St Cuthbert’s Catholic Primary School choir will also sing carols on and off the pitch before the game.
There’s also another chance for junior Evertonians to make sure Blue Santa receives their wishlists in time for Christmas with two special Everton postboxes in place at the Family Enclosure and near the Everton roadshow in the Park End car park.
And there’s a special Christmas giveaway in this Sunday’s match programme with the chance for one lucky supporter to win a Half Season Ticket.
Evertonians have been rushing to secure their seat for the second half of the season since the 10-match package went on sale last month, and to celebrate the Blues dedicated festive fixture, a ‘Golden Half Season Ticket’ has been hidden inside one copy of the match programme.
Half Season Tickets are now available to buy. Call 0871 663 1878, visit evertonfc.com/eticketing or drop into the Box Office at Goodison Park or Everton Two.
Tickets are still available for Sunday’s game and start at £31 for adults and half-price for juniors. To buy tickets, simply visit the Box Office at Goodison Park, Everton Two or the TicketQuarter in Queen Square. Alternatively call 0871 663 1878 or visit evertonfc.com/eticketing.
