The Kia Oval is buzzing to host its second Festival of Red Ball Cricket as Surrey take on Essex in a top-quality Rothesay County Championship clash.
Tickets
After smashing the 21st-century County Championship attendance record at the Kia Oval in the previous match against Yorkshire, the Club is calling on Members and supporters to get behind the Surrey team, to pack out the ground, and set a new record as a show of love to the red ball game. This celebration of the longest format is being supported by the Club’s partners at Ambassador Cruise Line.
The ground will be a vibrant hub of activities for supporters of all ages, whilst two of the best teams over recent years go up against each other. See below for everything that will be going on at the Kia Oval:
