Wales v New Zealand: Match-day information

It’s important for the WRU and Principality Stadium that a safe environment is provided in which supporters can enjoy thrilling rugby and have the best stadium experience possible. The ultimate fan guide features everything supporters need to know ahead of match day, from NHS Covid Pass or lateral flow test requirements, staggered entry times and a digital ticket guide to parking and road closures.

In line with Welsh Government legislation, an NHS Covid Pass or proof of negative LFT (lateral flow test) within 48 hours before the game will be an entry requirement for supporters at the Autumn Nations Series at Principality Stadium.

This requirement will be managed as part of a visual ‘spot-check’ on arrival at a designated gate and supporters are strongly advised that failure to supply an NHS Covid Pass or proof of an email or text with a negative lateral flow test result upon request will, unfortunately, result in denied entry into the stadium.

Key information and links:

The introduction of an NHS Covid Pass or proof of negative LFT, bolsters existing measures put in place for the wellbeing of supporters and staff, which includes:

• Digital ticketing – Principality Stadium App (to comply with Track & Trace)
• Completion of health questionnaire (within stadium app)
• Staggered entry – all ticket holders will be given a designated entry time and gate number as issued on their digital ticket. This is to limit queues and crowding.
• For additional protection, face coverings are to be worn upon entry and whilst travelling through the stadium however these can be removed once in your seat
• Supporters can find hand sanitizer spots throughout the Principality stadium
• Enhanced cleaning measures throughout Principality Stadium
