Supporter Information: Hartpury

This SATURDAY will see the Cornish Pirates welcome Hartpury to the Mennaye Field for a scheduled Round 19 fixture in this season’s RFU Championship (ko 2.30pm).

One thing for sure is that with fine weather forecast there should be no lack of atmosphere and entertainment, as the fifth-placed Pirates take on their third-placed opponents who are enjoying a very good season.

General information to note is as follows:

                                                                                                 Festival Season comes to The Mennaye in May! – Besides the rugby action, as we have advertised ‘Festival Season’ starts on Saturday with live music and family fun. Note the following:

Live DJ sets pre-game from Flo Tippetts-Hill
Singalongs with Cadgwith Singers and Will Keating post-match
Games and giveaways with Tribute & Thatchers
The Callestick Farm ice cream trike is back
Bouncy castle and face painting for kids with games

In a week when VE Day is to be commemorated, the Pirates will also be recognising the importance of this during the afternoon.

Tickets – Tickets for the game will be available at the gates on the day (open 12.30pm), whilst in the meantime they can also be purchased on-line. For further ticket information please visit:                                                          www.cornish-pirates.com/tickets

Serving Military & Veterans – In connection with present VE Day commemorations, please note there is FREE admission at the gates on Saturday for such personnel, BUT they must show appropriate ‘ID’ (the standard military ID is an MOD90 card, which is also used for identification by veterans. Additionally, there’s a new HM Armed Forces Veteran ID card issued to service leavers and veterans.)
