Bristol City v Wigan - All-Ticket Match
Friday, August 5th 2016
Ashton Gate is set to play host to its biggest crowd in three years when Bristol City kick-off the Sky Bet Championship season against Wigan Athletic tomorrow (3pm).
A crowd of more than 17,200 is already guaranteed and sales will end online at 9am tomorrow (Saturday).
The vast majority of seats that remain are in the Atyeo and South Stand. Limited seats are left in the Dolman Stand, whilst sales have halted in the new West Stand due to safety restrictions.
Sales will be available on phone to 0117 963 0600 until 5pm tonight, or until 9am tomorrow online.
Please note there will be NO SALES ON THE DAY from the stadium, which is now an ALL-TICKET match.
Wigan Athletic are set to bring 1,300 supporters, who will be housed in the Atyeo Stand.
The last time more than 17,200 fans visited Ashton Gate was for the Bristol derby in 2013, when City ran out 2-1 victors in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy.
