New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Bluebonic]

Hospitality is always consumer driven. They will aim for the more expensive end of the market and if there aren’t enough of people buying, they will amend the offering accordingly.

Today is the day! So excited to be going with my lad.

Heading over with my four year old daughter this morning and a few others from Dublin, take in some sights and head down to the ground. Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.
Might even try the Bramley Moore for a pint if the little one will let me, heard the Guinness is decent.

I regret not getting a ticket now. These final 2 weeks before Brighton are gonna feel longer than the 4 years it took to build it. I hope everyone going has a boss day. Don’t worry about the result just be super proud of one of the best stadiums in the world being our new home!!!

Can’t wait to get up bright and early here in Canada and watch the game. I’m so excited to see that stadium full. Loads of pictures please anyone who is attending. I want to see at least 100 toffee donuts!!

It’s Christmas!!!!

Sad to see fellow blues defending the club for having the highest prices in the premier league for drinks.

Like the Daily mail defending Boris Johnson.

Bus 929 from Stand 4 at Liverpool one.

Will drop you off right outside BM.

At the last test event, It was quicker to walk from town as they got stuck on the strand going towards the Costco junction. People walking past us as we sat on the bus for 40 mins not moving, complete mess.

Unless something has changed with the traffic management there, I won’t be using that.

Top work from commandant Steve.

No one knows until they get in today , or am I the only person with doubts about that X post ?

Hospitality is always consumer driven. They will aim for the more expensive end of the market and if there aren’t enough of people buying, they will amend the offering accordingly.

There is also the added issue of % profit. We have new facilities with more staff, which both cost. You then have to factor in demand.

If we sold drinks at Goodison prices and the demand didn’t rise accordingly, we’d be worse off rather than benefiting from the stadium.

As you rightly say, prices will adapt accordingly and hopefully we get to a place where the club benefits but fans aren’t ripped off.

To all those going down to The Dick today - have a great time and take loads of photos.

Super excited about this today. Feels like Christmas day when I was a toddler.

Just note that it was absolutely chocka at the second test event. Unless you're desperate to go there you'll be walking past The Invisible Wind Factory, Ten Streets Social and Murphy's Distillery all on the same row if you want easier alternatives with the kids.

My very warm take:

£7 for a pint could certainly be worse. Only about 50p-ish more than most decent boozers and about the going rate for a Premier League footy stadium in 2025..

This.
It's not a Wetherspoons.

Some fans seem to in utter shock that a close to billion pounds brand new stadium will have to increase revenues.

Are these people aghast when they ho to the cinema and see the price of a coke, or popcorn?

It was always going to be this.
