We can’t wait to welcome a capacity crowd to Trent Bridge for our sold out Vitality IT20 between England and India on Sunday 10 July.

With such a large number of people descending on Nottingham this Sunday, and with disruption expected across the road and rail network locally, we would heartily encourage all spectators to arrive as early as possible.

Our gates open at 12.30pm, two hours ahead of the fixture’s scheduled start time, with live music and a wealth of refreshment options on offer to keep you entertained before the on-field action commences.

Read on to plan your arrival at our venue most effectively.
