Albion are excited to welcome supporters back to The Hawthorns on Tuesday night.
There are plenty of activities to enjoy before and during the encounter with Southampton (ko 8pm). Here's everything you need to know ahead of your visit.
Fan Zone
There will be no Fan Zone or post-match bar on Tuesday night.
Family Stand activities
The activities will continue inside The Hawthorns, with two dedicated coves in the West Stand concourse featuring a Pac-Man arcade reaction game and a buzz wire for supporters to enjoy before kick-off and during the interval.
Refreshments outside The Hawthorns
Despite the Fan Zone being closed, the food and drink offering will extend beyond the stadium, with three additional concession units located around the exterior of The Hawthorns.
Supporters can find the units outside the East Stand, and the home and away sections of the Smethwick End.
A selection of matchday classics, including burgers and hot dogs, will be served outside the Smethwick End and outside the East Stand.
New matchday specials at The Hawthorns
Albion are delighted to introduce a brand-new range of matchday specials, available for supporters to enjoy throughout the 2026/27 season at The Hawthorns.
As part of the club’s ongoing commitment to enhancing the supporter experience, the Baggies' in-house catering team has developed a series of upgraded food offerings designed to bring even more flavour to matchdays in B71.
Following the summer success of winning gold for Overall Matchday Hospitality Experience at the Stadium Events & Hospitality Awards, the team is continuing to focus on delivering improvements across both the club’s hospitality areas and the general concourse experience.
The specials will run for two to three home fixtures at a time, rotating throughout the season to give supporters a wider variety of options alongside the usual matchday favourites.
Supporters in the East Stand, Birmingham Road End and West Stand will be able to purchase the new crispy chicken wrap. In addition to the rotating specials, a new ‘Panjabi Grill’ chicken tikka & fries will be available throughout the season across all four stands, bringing authentic Punjabi flavours to matchdays at The Hawthorns. The pizza special of the day will be a meat feast.
Both the matchday specials and the chicken tikka & fries will be priced at £8.50 and available to purchase from the moment turnstiles open. Supporters are encouraged to arrive early, as only a limited number of specials will be prepared for each fixture. Further dishes will be revealed across the course of the campaign, giving supporters even more to look forward to on every visit to The Hawthorns.
Hawthorns helpers
Look out for our Hawthorns Helpers around the ground on Saturday.
Wearing their bright pink uniforms and carrying 'Here to Help' flags, the team will be positioned at key points around the stadium to assist with directions, answer questions and help supporters throughout their matchday journey.
Post-match entertainment
There will be no post-match bar on Tuesday night.
Additional information
Young Baggies can now select a free piece of fruit across all stands at The Hawthorns, extending the initiative beyond the Family Stand for the rest of the season.
The club has also built two new refreshment kiosks in the Birmingham Road stand concourse, with the primary aim of providing fans with increased access to draught beer, soft drinks and hot beverages and easing congestion in the central area.
Phone charging stations provided by FUZE will continue to be in place around The Hawthorns. Supporters can take advantage of free charging using the code 'CHARGEUP2026'. The code can be used by anyone at checkout and is available on a one-per-person basis.
Sensory packs and ear defenders will also be available to purchase from the club shop, helping those who may benefit from additional sensory support to feel more comfortable throughout their matchday. Simply speak to a member of the club shop team to request one.
Andy Gulch will be our Stadium DJ, working behind the scenes to bring our matchday music to life and build the atmosphere across The Hawthorns.
West Bromwich Albion are proud to continue to offer free sanitary products for women across all toilets within the concourse.
Tuesday night's game will also involve an early acknowledgement of Diwali, which falls on Sunday, November 8.
Half-time - celebrating our powerchair players
We would like to congratulate members of the West Bromwich Albion Powerchair Football Club on their outstanding achievements at the 2026 FIPFA Powerchair Football World Cup in Argentina.
Chris Gordon and Marcus Harrison helped England reach the World Cup Final, finishing as silver medallists, while Bryan Weiss became a World Champion with France following a hard-fought extra-time victory. Colin Gordon, Chris' father, also coached Argentina to a fourth-place finish on home soil.
Chris's performances were recognised with the Defensive Player of the Tournament award, while Chris, Bryan and Colin were all named in the official Team of the Tournament. Congratulations to all four on representing their nations and Albion with distinction on the world stage.
