Lightning guide

NatWest T20 Blast Matchday Information – Lancashire Lightning, Friday, July 10 (Gates open at 4pm, 5.30pm start)

Ticket collection/Refund Policy

All remaining tickets will go on sale on the Curzon Road gate priced £20 adults and £3 for under 16s.

Our ticket collection point will be situated outside the ground on Curzon Road. Please note that if you brought tickets on or after Wednesday, they will be available to pick up at our collection point just outside the ground on Curzon Road from 1pm.

The weather is warm and sunny at Grace Road and the forecast is for it to get even better this afternoon but if play is restricted to fewer than 10 overs because of adverse weather conditions and no result is obtained on the day for which your ticket is valid, then you may claim a cash refund (less an Admin Charge of £1 per ticket).

Alternatively, you can exchange your match ticket for a ticket that will admit you to the NatWest T20 Blast group game against Nottinghamshire Outlaws or a RL50 group game.

The full refund policy is available HERE
