Exeter City, the Supporters' Trust and Senior Reds are once again combining their efforts to offer our fantastic annual Seniors’ Christmas Social.
The date for your diaries is Wednesday, December 9 at SJP. This event is FREE (including hot meal) to all senior supporters. Please note that access is provided on first come basis until all seats are taken by emailing: reception@ecfc.co.uk.
As usual this is a chance to meet your current City favourites and a few of your past Grecian heroes. In the past the event has proved so popular that enquiries have been made by a few supporters under the age of 65. If you are in this category and would like to attend, if there is space available, please email customerservices@ecfc.co.uk. Please head you email 'Seniors Christmas Exception; and we will provide you with a cost and details of the application process.
The early Christmas event could not be better timed with cost of living and so many other worries nationally. All senior supporters are invited to the Christmas event. So please come and enjoy an afternoon with other Grecians. As well as a hot meal you will also have the opportunity to meet and chat with the Men and Women's players past and present.
The event starts at noon. For early birds who would like to join us in the warm to play traditional festive games, visit the burgeoning Museum or go outside on a Stadium Tour.
From 1pm all our guests will meet in the Zebel Trust Suite. After a game of prize bingo a hot meal will be served. From around 2pm the City players will start joining us for more festive fun and games.
After the event the City first teams will re-appear in the Centre Spot for the official 2026 Christmas 'Meet the Players event', where they will be signing the new Exeter City calendar and any other merchandise.
