Albion are excited to welcome supporters back to The Hawthorns for Saturday’s Sky Bet Championship clash with Portsmouth (ko 3pm).

There are plenty of activities to enjoy both before and after the contest.

The Fan Zone will open from midday until 2.45pm. Supporters of both clubs with a valid match ticket are welcome to attend for free. 

A wide range of entertainment will be on offer in the Fan Zone including opportunities to grab the perfect selfie with mascots Baggie Bird and Boiler Man, face painters on site, fun inflatable challenges put on by the Albion Foundation and the chance to play a whole host of video games at the gaming van.

There’s live football on the big screen too. Charlton Athletic take on Leicester City at The Valley in the second tier, with that particular encounter starting at 12.30pm.

Call Me Unique will be providing the live music this weekend, working their way through a set list.

Fans can take advantage of plenty of food and drink options and purchase Baggies merchandise – including all three 2025/26 replica kits - at the retail wardrobe.

A sunny Saturday in the summer at the Shrine? Fear not. Cool yourself down with a sweet treat from the ice cream van!

The club shop will be open from 9am until kick-off, before reopening after the final whistle for a further 30 minutes.

After full-time, supporters with a valid match ticket from all stands are invited to visit the post-match bar which is situated in the middle of the East Stand and can be accessed via gate 12. New TVs and lightning have been installed, while benches and tables will be in place.

Live football will be shown on the screens – the Premier League encounter between Arsenal and Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium (ko 5.30pm).

Feeling peckish after 90 minutes of cheering on Ryan Mason's men? Discounted food will be available while stocks last.

The post-match bar will open immediately following the final whistle and will remain open until the conclusion of the 5.30pm game. It will be open for all weekend lunchtime or afternoon kick-offs, but will not operate after night games. 

Enjoy your day and come on you Baggies!
