The O’s welcome Colchester United to The Breyer Group Stadium on Boxing Day (1pm) in our next Sky Bet League 2 game of the season. Here is all the match information and FAQs you will need in our Match Pack:

Leyton Orient v Colchester United tickets

Tickets are cheaper to purchase in advance of a match day. You can buy tickets at in-advance prices (ranging from £3 for Under-11s to £18 for adults) online until midnight on Christmas Day. After this time you can still buy online at match day prices until 10am on Boxing Day. Click here to see our prices.

You can also purchase on the day from our West Stand Ticket Office windows or on selected cash turnstiles in the Q2W Tommy Johnstone South Stand and the Green Inc East Stand.

Collecting match tickets

All match ticket collections on Boxing Day will be at the white Ticket Collection kiosk adjacent to our West Stand ticket office from 10am. The only exception is hospitality tickets, which will be available from Main Reception from 10.30am.

The Wyvern Suite in the East Stand will not be opening for this fixture.

The Ticket Office and Club Superstore will also be open immediately after the game for a short while.
