KEY POINTS Open top bus parade to kick-off celebrations before Town Moor event. All Supporters who registered an interest will receive a ticket to the Town Moor celebration. Eddie Howe’s side will celebrate their recent cup win with a city centre open top bus on Saturday 29 March, which will start at St. James’ Park, before making its way to the Town Moor for the celebration event. Extensive work and long-term planning behind the scenes have continued with Newcastle City Council, Northumbria Police, Freemen of Newcastle, the North East Combined Authority, NE1, Nexus and the emergency services. Newcastle United would like to thank all partners for the comprehensive planning and hard work throughout the process, as well as the meetings with the Safety Advisory Group.

Superior Acuña Posted yesterday at 18:38 Share Posted yesterday at 18:38 I hope they open the Town Moor event to people who didn't register an interest too. I registered but I won't go, I'll go to bus instead. My dad also registered just in case he decides he wants to, but prob won't. Imagine a lot registered but won't go.

iklgizmo Posted yesterday at 18:43 Share Posted yesterday at 18:43 Yea i think I lot of people would rather be part of the parade than go to the moor, so it's likely to be fewer people than they expect! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted yesterday at 18:44 Share Posted yesterday at 18:44 Some people like my Mam don’t have a supporter number either, so couldn’t register. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted yesterday at 18:45 Share Posted yesterday at 18:45 I could only register for myself, but would obviously like to possibly take kids along to moor. Guess that's a no go? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye few from work didn’t seem to grasp you could just register for free on site. Think they should find a way of just opening it up to the public without needing a ticket.

Guess that's a no go? Hopefully they’ll open it up - i imagine they will and it’s just the aready-registered get priority. If not, someone from here can probably sort you spares. Possibly me though can’t commit right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
