Kerala Blasters Reduce Stadium Capacity for First Home Match

The Kerala Blasters have announced that the stadium capacity for their first home match of the season will be reduced to 50% due to Thiruvonam celebrations in Kerala.

This decision was made to alleviate the workload of the stadium staff, who work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure a smooth match day experience. The staff’s work begins the evening before the match and continues until midnight after the competition.

Supporting Essential Service Providers

The Kerala Blasters recognize the critical role that essential service providers and operational partners play on match days. By reducing stadium capacity, the club aims to ease the workload of these dedicated individuals, allowing them to enjoy at least a small part of the Onam celebration with their families.

Although the club would have liked to have a full stadium for the first game of the season, they prioritize the well-being of their staff and partners. This decision reflects the club’s commitment to standing with their community and supporting those who work hard to make match days a success.

A Message to Fans

The Kerala Blasters appreciate the support of their fans and look forward to an exciting season ahead. While this decision may disappoint some fans, the club is confident that it is the right one, given the circumstances.

The club is grateful for the understanding and cooperation of their fans and hopes that they will continue to support the team throughout the season.
