The BRM Chesterfield Festival of Cricket, in association with Chesterfield Borough Council, will return to Queen’s Park this summer.
The Falcons Men return to one of the UK’s most picturesque cricket grounds on Sunday 6 July (2.30pm), to face Yorkshire in T20 action.
2024’s encounter saw the Falcons extend their unbeaten streak over the White Rose at Chesterfield to seven games, and they’ll be aiming to continue their good form in 2025.
Before that, cricket fans can soak up plenty of action in our town as Falcons Women take on Worcestershire Rapids on Saturday 28 June in the Vitality Blast Women’s League Two (T20).
Derbyshire Men will then face Lancashire in the Rothesay County Championship (First-class) on Sunday 29 June – Wednesday 2 July.
Then, The Blaze will take to the field against Hampshire Women on Friday 4 July in the Vitality Blast Women’s Competition (T20).
The T20 fixture between Derbyshire and Yorkshire has become a regular fixture in the cricketing calendar and has sold out on each of the last six occasions, so it is recommended fans secure their tickets early.
Jimmy Drew, Commercial Manager of Derbyshire County Cricket Club commented: “The club really looks forward to the BRM Chesterfield Festival of Cricket each season, and it’s always amazing to see so many people from Chesterfield and the surrounding area support this. The atmosphere created around Queen’s Park, particularly for our T20 match against Yorkshire, is second to none, and it’s great to feel the buzz from those supporting Derbyshire, especially if we win.”
