Santa hat

Get into the spirit and throw on a Santa Hat before you head to the match and you will be in with a chance to win! Throughout the pre-game and half time, we’ll be selecting fans in the stand wearing Santa hats (or other fun Christmas attire) to pick a prize out of Santa’s Sack. It’s that simple! 

Santa hat

Head to Dane Drive to see Santa’s arrival to Central Coast Stadium! Thanks to the Gosford Fire Brigade, you’ll have your chance to welcome Santa at 4pm. 

Fans will also have the opportunity to meet Santa inside the Stadium – just head to Bay 19 between 4:30pm – 5:00pm, and during half time to hand in your last minute wish list! Don’t forget to bring along your smartphone and grab a photo as well. 

Families on the field

Stick around after the match for Macca’s Families on the Field! Approximately 10 minutes after the match, we’ll be sounding the siren and all Mariner’s fans will be permitted onto the pitch for a kick around. (Please note, this may be cancelled in the event of dangerous weather).

Don’t forget, when the Mariners win – so do you! Grab a Big Mac on Monday if the Mariners beat the Newcastle Jets. All you need to do is show your Members card or match day ticket at any participating restaurant on the Central Coast. Terms and Conditions apply.
