Tickets go on sale for BritBowl XXV

Tickets have gone on sale for BritBowl XXV (25) – the official championship weekend for the BAFA (British American Football Association) National Leagues – at Crystal Palace National Sports Centre in September.

The action-packed weekend sees eight national finals take place on Saturday September 24 and Sunday September 25.

Single day tickets cost £15 for adults, £10 for 14 to 18-year-olds and £6.00 for under 14s. Weekend packages for both days of gridiron action cost £25 for adults, £15 for 14 to 18-year-olds and £8.50 for under 14s.

Tickets can be bought in advance via Ticketmaster at http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk Tickets can also be bought on the day at the stadium.

Event organiser Drew Anderson says: “BritBowl XXV is the highlight of the British American football calendar and this year will be our biggest and best yet. It will appeal to gridiron fans in the UK but also offer a great day out for families looking for something different in London .”

In addition to the hard-hitting action on the field, there will be plenty of entertainment at the family-friendly event. Musical performances will come from The Urban Voodoo Machine – critically acclaimed by NME magazine – and human beatbox and hip-hop sensation Lippicool, who has been one of the musical hits of the summer at BBC Radio One’s Big Weekends.

Street dancers from around the world will also be performing at BritBowl XXV. International teams competing in the UK leg of The World of Dance Tour will be on hand to entertain American football fans on the Saturday and Sunday.

Those looking for thrills away from the American football action can play the latest computer games in the EA Sports pod or try their hand at a state-of-the-art Formula 1 simulator.

London clubs are battling to appear in the elite Premier Division Final on September 24. The London Warriors – featuring TV personality and NFL fan Vernon Kay among their squad – are on course to meet the reigning BritBowl and EFAF European Cup Champions London Blitz.

Admission on both days will be from 12 noon with kickoff times to be announced soon.
