BTG next week

[Callum_62]

Hi

Anyone any idea what time this will open with the 12.30 KO?

How did it work in the Albion bar last year?

Notice this section has only 11 seats left for tomorrow

Must be a decent income for the club even with the negativity around it

How does this work for buying entry into one match? If you have a season ticket for another area of the ground ...

I assumed you needed at ST in the FF to add on BTG access to your season ticket but I'm not sure tbh

They have been selling access to the lounge for £15, similar set up to the old BTG for fans who have their tickets elsewhere in the ground. I actually think that’s a good deal for fans who want to make a day of it but don’t want to spend the money to access hospitality in the West. Sounds like you can elect to buy food if you wish when in there. Add the cost of that to the £15 and a few drinks and it’ll be a lot cheaper than the hospitality packages. We’re in the East but may decide to visit the lounge a couple times through the season for something different.

Didn’t realise that. Have a ff season ticket but may do that also for a few games this season.

[Unseen work]

Looks brilliant

[FastEddieFelson]

how was it?

[hibee-boys]

I’d be keen to hear from anyone who was BTG today. How’d it look? What food/drinks options were on offer? Prices?

[Chuck Rhoades]

Was brilliant. Same prices as Albion so not cheap but what you expect in places like this. Bit of aggro at HT as majority of people had been told you could get a pint at HT (hence they put the black out blinds down). Going to be open 3hrs pre/post match. Plenty seating, teles and staff.

Where did you find the £15 offer

[BoomtownHibees]

What is the “Terrace Experience” at the back of the FFL?

What is the “Terrace Experience” at the back of the FFL?

New hospitality offering from the club. According to the hospitality manager in BTG yesterday the club are charging £150 a head, space for 20. Heated seats, table in BTG, direct access to / from seat to table, inclusive food and drink. Darren Jackson was in them with a group yesterday, not sure if that was a comp from club or not.

Seemed a pretty reasonable deal compared to some other hospitality prices, including some of our own in the West. If you are happy to sit close to Block 7 and their flags right enough...

Sounds decent. Hadn’t seen anything about it until seeing them yesterday

Did Kensell and 2 Celtic directors visit the BTG suite pre match on Sunday
Saw all 3 heading that way

Think so. Few suit types I didn't recognise with Kensell, wasn't sure if Hibs or Celtic. Kensell, Gordon, MacPherson & Mackay were all in and out BTG through the day.

None them ever appear in the East and say hello to the fans, quite appalling really

I’d say that was a bonus for fans in the East myself. :greengrin

What no interest in your support, quite appalling that they don’t integrate with their fans, unless you play for hospitality
Even the much maligned Petrie attended the free behind the goals every home game

Maybe your right

[7Hero]

Hopefully the Celtic directors were suitably impressed and see a position for Ben at Celtic park,


Could you get a pint at half time ?

They go to speak to the away season ticket holders too. It’s the process isn’t it - speak to those that pay the most.

[the_ginger_hibee]

Nope.

[Callum_62]

What's the reasoning behind tno drink at half time?

I'd like the volume on the TV to be louder too - not drowning everyone out but id like to hear what's being said

£6 a pint of tenants for folk who are interested (£7.20 for Menabrea)

Food price was reasonably high but didn't see them up close to see if it was ok value

Overall was good though and I'm sure a few teething issues will be smoothed outhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240812/eeb9dcdd43c29c19ee927acc72856494.jpg

'under the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 clients will not be able to consume alcohol when in direct view of the football pitch.'

I thought the blinds going down 15 mins before kick off was a way around the above, but obviously not. Hopefully Hibs can come up with a workaround, if possible.

Yes, that’s why the Albion Bar can serve at half time as it faces towards the car park

Judging by social media and a fair few posters on here it's not particularly difficult to work out why none of the board fancy sitting amongst the fans in the East Stand anytime soon.

[ruthven_raiders]

Nope.

Drinking a £6 to £7 pint in 15mins doesn't appeal to me.....

[Iain G]

With all of the hospitality, this is a great chance for Hibs to partner with one of the local Leith breweries to make one or two Hibs themed beers, made in Leith...

The Sauzee Saison
A Matty Jack Weisbeer
The Conrad Logan Irish Stout
Dour Sour named after Alex Miller
And a lager called Down the Slop

Are you just ripping off Brewdog? 🤣

We need a 7-0 shilling of some kind 😁

Rod Petrie used to do it quite often and he got a lot of stick.

[Pretty Boy]

A group of us enquired about the Terrace Experience, potentially as a Christmas day out. £130 for a Cat B game with a ST seems decent value for an unlimited food and drink package. Inclusive package runs from 2 hours before kick off until an hour post match. Arguably the best value of all the hospitality packages if £130 for a day at the football can ever be considered good value.

I don't think there is any minimum number, you can buy 1 ticket if you want. Sure I read it was capped at a max of 100 people a game but I can't actually find reference to that now so I may well have made it up.

Presumably you get a seat in the FF stand, even if your normal ST is in the West/East?

Is there not only like a dozen or so seats in the bit at the back of the FFL? Where does everyone else sit?

[Pretty Boy]

Aye it's a wee separate area in the FFL with padded, heated seats and stuff.

Like I say there is every chance I made that 100 number up, could be something totally unrelated:greengrin

[emoji1]

Id be more inclined to try the "proper" hospitality in the West to be honest - proper sit down meal etc

I think this goes some way to show that the club are getting it right off the park. I think the hospitality on option is fantastic. Been fortunate to spend time in all of the suites and there is something for everyone. No longer just the stuffy suited day out option. From £25k a season for the Emerald Suite to £15 a match for behind the goals.

Not sure exactly on numbers but must be close to a couple of thousand available hospitality spaces available on a match day.

It’s capped at 20. That’s what ring-fenced area holds plus there’s 20 padded seats in top corner at East end.

[LustForLeith]

Anyone know what the street food is like there? Just booked up for the Dundee game

[Callum_62]

Anyone know what the street food is like there? Just booked up for the Dundee gameDidn't see that many folk eating as it was an early KO

Seemed basic - pie, hot dog, Mac n cheese I think and pizza

Seen the odd pizza that looked ok but pretty small for the price
