The whole event is the brainchild of club mascot, Benny the Bannsider who was behind the original Big Day Out where over 3,000 fans had a great day. As well as the Food and Music Festival, the day will be a celebration of Coleraine FC Youth and the almost 600 boys and girls plus their families involved every week. Benny will welcome all the teams to the game and will lead a parade around the pitch at half-time.

To encourage as many families as possible to attend the game, Benny has arranged a “Kid for a Quid” price allowing families to enjoy a really enjoyable and affordable day out. It all starts from 12 noon and tickets for the game are available now from https://colerainefc.com/ticketing/
