Pre-planned evacuation exercise before Newcastle U21 game

City's safety stewards will be undertaking a pre-planned stadium evacuation exercise between 5pm and 6pm on Tuesday evening ahead of the Newcastle United U21 fixture.

Supporters should not be concerned if they hear safety announcements or see club staff rehearsing an evacuation at the LNER Stadium during these times. It is just to test the club’s readiness, should we ever need to carry out a real-life evacuation at an Imps match.

Fans can still enjoy access to the University of Lincoln Fan Village and the Centre Spot Tavern from 5.30pm, with turnstiles into the ground open to supporters at 6pm, ready for a 7pm kick-off.
