Heading to Blundstone Arena this Friday night? Plan ahead to make sure you arrive on time.
With peak-hour traffic and a near-capacity crowd expected for the first ever Friday night clash in Tasmania, fans are being advised to make sure they make the most of free public transport options to avoid expected heavy traffic.
Plus, with the Spirit of Tasmania Pre-Game Show set to kick off around 7.15pm, those arriving early will be rewarded with a concert to remember ahead of the first bounce.
The lights at the stadium will also be turned out as part of the pre-game activities, with a pyrotechnics display part of the entertainment.
Blundstone Arena recommends viewing its virtual journey to the ground before making travel plans.
Free shuttle buses will be available for ticketholders, giving plenty of park and ride options to make the trip less stressful.
A free ferry service will also operate, thanks to Events Tasmania. Ferries will depart the Brooke St Pier and arrive at Bellerive Quay. The first ferry will depart at 4.30pm, with further departures at 5.10pm, 5.30pm, 5.50pm, 6.10pm, 6.30pm and 6.50pm.
Gates will open at Blundstone Arena at 5.30pm.
