ACCESS ADVICE

Rangers supporters are encouraged to arrive at Hampden Park early for stadium access.

Supporters are reminded the use of pyrotechnics is illegal within Scottish football stadiums, and any supporter found to be in possession of a pyrotechnic device at any match risks arrest. The club can also be sanctioned for any use of pyrotechnics within a stadium.

Rangers supporter flags will be permitted for entry, subject to visual checks by Hampden security. Flags on canes will only be permitted if canes are smaller than 1m and no wider than a pinky finger’s width. Please note that surfing banners are prohibited.

PARKING RESTRICTIONS

Supporters should be aware that the area immediately surrounding the stadium is mainly residential and the availability of on-street parking is extremely limited due to event specific parking restrictions. We would ask that supporters are mindful and respect the residents of the area around Hampden.

For matchdays at Hampden, supporters are advised where possible to use public transport to get to and from the stadium, if not travelling by organised coach/bus.

SUPPORTER BEHAVIOUR

Rangers is rightly proud of our multicultural men’s first-team squad and diverse support. Our Everyone Anyone campaign sends a clear message of inclusion and togetherness, and a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of discrimination on and off the pitch.

Rangers are a modern football club, with a support recognised across Europe for the positive way in which they back their team. Songs of a discriminatory manner have absolutely no place in 2023.

As the men’s first team continue their seasons both domestically and in Europe, supporters are reminded the SPFL, and particularly UEFA, have many sanctions within their power to punish discriminatory chanting which would be extremely harmful to the club on and off the pitch.

We call on all our supporters to back the team in the right manner and prove what a force for good the Rangers support can be.
