Tickets are now available for the Games of Remembrance on Thursday 8 November with family tickets starting from just £5.00.
The Games of Remembrance, through the power of football, aims to bring World War 1 stories of courage and sacrifice alive, 100 years after the guns fell silent.
Two football matches will be held on Thursday 8 November between the male and female British Army and the German Armed Forces which will include VIPs and sporting legends from both countries.
Notts County will host the women’s match at Meadow Lane with match kick-off at 12:00 noon. The men’s match will take place in the evening at the City Ground with kick-off at 7:00pm.
VIPs and sporting legends from both countries will be attending and there will be fan zones, music and exhibition areas.

For the evening match at the City Ground, entry for two adults and two children will be £10.00. Kick-off will be 7:00pm.
