It's not just the football to look forward to this weekend as we welcome Altrincham for our annual Community Day fixture (5.30pm kick-off).
The day is a celebration of the people who make our community so special, as we open our doors to local groups, organisations and supporters from across the area. Community Day is an opportunity to recognise the incredible work being done locally while bringing everyone together through the shared passion of football.
Alongside the action on the pitch, supporters can enjoy a range of live entertainment showcasing local talent, as well as a variety of food and drink vendors, charity stalls and local businesses. It promises to be a fantastic occasion for fans of all ages as we celebrate the community that stands behind the Iron.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR WEST CAR PARK HOLDERS
Access to park in the West Car Park (next to the Threadgold Stand) via the front of the stadium (where the Wroot Homes Iron Bar is) will cease at 11.30am, ensuring the safety of an increased crowd which is likely to be outside the Attis Arena, with entertainment set-up down that side of the car park, with more details to follow in due course.
From 11.30am until 4pm, access to park in the West Stand car park will be granted by driving around the back of the stadium, via the East car park and alongside the Mortz Stand, and round the back of the AMS Stand (away end).
Once the turnstiles open at 4pm, this access will be closed, and there will be no further traffic able to park in the West Car Park.
DISABLED PARKING ACCESS
Different to a traditional match day, the disabled parking access that is located next to the Iron Bar won't be accessible in order to pedestrianise the area. Elsewhere, the disabled parking spaces that are located on the Threadgold Stand side of the stadium will be accessible.
Alternative provision has been made within the West Car Park for an additional allocation of spaces for the game, with those supporters requested to arrive early as these spaces remain first come, first served.
