One of the most used benefits of a Partick Thistle season ticket last campaign was our innovative FREE matchday travel on First Bus services in the Glasgow area.
With a little over 24 hours until the new cinch Championship season begins, we are excited to announce that Partick Thistle season ticket holders will continue to receive FREE matchday travel on First Bus services in the Glasgow area, with the first codes of the year set to be issued this afternoon!
First Bus will continue to work with us to encourage supporters to make more use of public transport and to travel sustainably, particularly when travelling to Firhill on matchday. With no fewer than 10 different First Bus services operating within a short walking distance of Firhill Stadium, there is a range of routes for all Jags fans to utilise public transport.
The partnership with First Bus takes effect immediately and Partick Thistle 2023/24 season ticket holders will be able to take advantage of this fantastic offer across all home cinch Championship fixtures during the 2023/24 season, starting with our home league opener against Raith Rovers tomorrow.
Similar to last season, season ticket holders will receive a promo code ahead of each match, sent via email by the club. This code offers 100% discount on a First Day Adult Ticket when redeemed at checkout on the First Bus App.
Any supporter under the age of 22 can already claim free travel in and around Glasgow, provided they possess a valid Young Scot card.
The First Bus App is free to download and will allow Thistle supporters to play their matchday journeys, as well as track their bus in real-time.
The free travel offer is only available to Partick Thistle season ticket holders and is available to access via the First Bus App only. This offer cannot be used for tickets purchase on board the bus and is only valid to redeem on home match days.

The following First Bus services operate within short walking distance of the club.
