As usual, there is plenty of activity going on around the ground before the action begins, across the Fan Zone, Matchday Hub and more – and with Christmas around the corner there is a very festive feel to the day! Make sure to pick up your blue Santa hat as soon as you arrive.
FANZONEPresented by Guilia Bould, the FanZone is open from 1pm and is the perfect place to get into the matchday mood.
Sunday afternoon’s show sees music from Mac Bros, former Blues defender Dave Jones interviewed on stage and there will be a Santa’s Grotto for all young Blues to visit.
As usual, fans can get involved in the fun and games by playing Blue v Blue and Play Your Cards Right.
There is also plenty of food and drink on offer.
MATCHDAY HUBOpen from 1pm, the Matchday Hub continues to be the perfect pre-match hot spot for Blues of all ages.
In the build-up to the game, the Hub will be offering face painting, crafts sessions, music and a games area – all with a special Christmas mixtape providing the tunes!
And if that’s not enough, Everton in the Community will deliver three football coaching sessions: Ages 5-7 at 6pm, ages 8-10 at 6.30pm and ages 11+ at 7pm.
