IME what you would normally wear to football.

If it's a box with no exterior access, then fewer layers.

Have fun!

Exactly. If there’s a dress code it will have been communicated to you, but that’s usually only a directors’ box thing.

My dad has a season ticket in hospitality. Colours are not allowed (football shirts). The season ticket holders tend to dress warm but smart. Black jeans or trousers, nice top & jumper & big coat. Ties for Ken optional. Smart boots. Co-ordinating scarf.

the one off special occasioners tend to go all out designer. The other week the table next to me was Gucci/Lous Vuitton logo with bags, shoes, belts etc. I’m not judging, I have a Gucci scarf & dh has LV shoes but head to toe was a bit much. I wondered how warm they would be in their short skirts & bare arms!

Dh has seats in directors box and no trainers or jeans, jacket/tie for men. I would ask as it may differ from box to box.

Directors box rules are usually stricter than normal boxes & hospitality areas.

Great thanks a lot! I’ll check what kind of hospitality it is.

Like others have said, depends on the level and type of hospitality. Unless directors box, I’d normally wear a smarter version of what I’d normally wear to a sporting event. At this time of year I might wear smart jeans, boots, shirt with a smart lightweight jumper or wool tank top/vest type of thing. Wool jacket or coat. Where I go, it tends to be a meal & drinks in a function suite, posh seats in the stand, back to the suite at half time / afterwards, rather than a box.

That’s very similar to what it’s like where my dad goes.
