remembrance service

To mark Armistice Day, Bath Rugby will pay tribute to those who have lost their lives, and those who are currently serving in the Armed Forces.

Forming the guard of honour for this week's game we have junior rugby players from our grassroots affiliate clubs, alongside soldiers from the 11th Signal Regiment.

We're also lucky enough to be joined by a Bugler to play The Last Post, ahead of a minute's silenced observed by the 14,000 strong crowd inside The Rec.

Wreath laying will take place prior to kick-off, with the club's Chief Executive, Tarquin McDonald, and President, John Hall who also represents the Past Players Association, both paying their respects with wreaths of their own. They will be joined by Major Roger Evans of the Royal British Legion, Doug Wrigglesworth - Chair of Bath Rugby Supporters' Club and Ben Hartley of Bath Combination.

If you'd like to purchase a poppy and support the Armed Forces community, volunteers from both Royal British Legion and Bath Rugby Foundation will be selling poppies as you enter the grounds.

Alternatively, you can purchase a Royal British Legion x Bath Rugby limited edition pin badge from the Poppy Shop.

bumper raffle in aid of bath rugby foundation and royal british legion

Every home game, our dedicated volunteers from Bath Rugby Foundation come out to sell raffle tickets to the wonderfully generous Blue, Black and White fans.

This week, the raffle team will be selling tickets in aid of both Bath Rugby Foundation and the Royal British Legion.

For your chance to win an invitation to the President's Lounge on matchday or SIGNED Bath Rugby stash, make sure you find our volunteers who'll be in and around the fan village both pre and post-match.

Tickets are £2 each or 3 for £5, with all proceeds being split between the two brilliant charities.

live music from the bluebirds

Giving us a true wartime vibe, we'll be joined by The Bluebirds for pre-match entertainment, a half-time show and post-match celebrations (🤞).

Singing all your favourite hits with a juke-box, war-time twist, catch The Bluebirds from 18:25-19:25 pre-match and from 21:30-22:30 post-match. They'll also be out on the pitch at half-time to keep the atmosphere buzzing during the break.

huge selection of food and beverage

Second to putting in a hearty performance, keeping you fed and hydrated is always top of our list at The Rec. Our food vendors will be doing what they do best - serving food with a friendly smile!

Out in the bars you'll find a range of Thatchers, Tribute, korev, Guinness, The Great Wine Co, Cotswold Gin Distillery and more! And for Gem, head over to the Swift Half. Whatever you fancy, we've got you covered - you'll even find Tony's Chocolonely!
