New rules in Wales mean that supporters will have to show NHS Covid Passes to gain entry to large sporting events from today.

The Welsh Government has ruled all over-18s need one to attend outdoor non-seated events for more than 4,000 people and any setting or event with more than 10,000 people in attendance.

The law-change means that fans attending the Championship match between Swansea City and Cardiff City on Sunday October 17 and the Cardiff’s rugby fixture against Cell C Sharks at the Arms Park on Saturday must show a pass.
