Blackburn with Darwen Council has teamed up with Blackburn Rovers in a 1,000 ticket giveaway for the Birmingham match on March 24 at Ewood Park.
The tickets will be given away on a first come, first served basis and will be limited to four per family.
Councillor Michael Law-Riding, executive member for leisure and culture for the Council said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for people to watch a top flight, premiership football match at a very crucial stage in the season. I am sure the tickets will be snapped up within a couple of days.”
Tom Finn, managing director at Blackburn Rovers added: "Following the launch of the 'Taking Back Ewood' campaign, we have had great success in drawing fans from all over the North West. However this is an excellent opportunity for people in our core catchment area who have never been to Ewood, to come down and experience a live Premier League game."
Anyone wanting free tickets should telephone the Council’s beeZ hotline on (01254) 708080 before the closing date of Wednesday March 16. A high volume of requests are expected so if the line is busy please be patient and keep trying.
