1/7/22

Exeter Chiefs will tackle the Cornish Pirates as part of their build-up to the new 2022/23 campaign.

Rob Baxter’s side will travel to the Mennaye Field on Friday, September 2 for a 7:30pm kick-off against the RFU Championship outfit.

Over the years the two clubs have faced off against one another in pre-season, the last meeting coming in August 2018 at the Mennaye, when the Pirates edged a sold-out encounter 29-21.

Tickets for the fixture are available from Monday, July 4 and are as follows:

Terrace/Open Seating - £12 (for Under-16s the admission price is £1)

Microcomms Stand - £16

Truro & Penwith College Stand - £20

Because demand is expected to be a high, and another sell-out crowd anticipated, it is recommended that supporters purchase their needs as soon as possible either from the Cornish Pirates ticket office (open Mon-Fri 9am–12 noon) or on-line at: https://cornish-pirates.com/tickets/

For those interested in hospitality, a three-course carvery meal (including wine) will be available at £65 per head. The price also includes a seat in the Microcomms Stand.
