This Sunday 11th December London Irish welcome Cornish Pirates to kick off our festive bonanza at the Madejski Stadium (kick-off 3pm).

It is the last chance for us to celebrate Christmas with our supporters and we hope to see you all there.

Santa will be in his grotto pre-match with Digger where our younger fans can meet him and will receive a special club gift.  The grotto can be accessed via the Windsor Lounge, just look out for the signs, and will be open from 1pm-1.30pm for Junior Exiles Members and 1.45pm-2.15pm for non-members.

One lucky member will be selected to be the mascot for the day.

Digger’s Pound will be open as usual pre game in the North Stand. This is jam packed with fun for our Junior Exiles with activities such as a bouncy castle and connect four. The kids will also be able to pick up their FREE London Irish flag and FREE autograph card. 

This weekend we will also be giving one lucky under-15 the chance to be mascot for the day

Watch out for 'Digger Cam' and make sure you get your selfie with the club mascot!

EARLYBIRD SPECIAL! Curry & Pint = £6.50. Get a curry plus a pint or soft drink for just £6.50! This offer is available in the Windsor Lounge only from 12pm-1pm.  The Windsor Lounge (above the bar, in the hotel) will be open pre-match, which hosts the London Irish Supporters Club as well as a bar for supporters to enjoy.

Programme sellers will be located outside Gates 1 and Gates 4 from 1.30pm. There will be no programme sellers inside the stadium. Make sure you pick up your issue of The Exile to avoid disappointment! 

Outside the Megastore, Pump Technology will be handing out more of their player stickers to fill your programme with. They also have another edition of their ‘Spot the ball’ competition in the matchday programme. All entries must be handed in to the main reception (located next to the Megastore) on the day for the chance to win a signed ball.

Post-match the Princess Suite/Club room will be open with live music from Paul Bowen.


We will also be holding a Q&A with a player, a coach and the Man of the Match on the day.  All welcome!
