In partnership with

The Game is Changing

The internet was supposed to make it easier to build and connect. Somewhere along the way, we lost the plot.

beehiiv is changing that once and for all.

Dear London Is Blue Dispatch readers, 

We heard from so many of you that you were interested in joining us on another London trip, so we have done our best to coordinate a magical holiday version.

We couldn't be more excited to take another group trip to see Chelsea play 3 Premier League matches over the festive period. London is pure magic over the holidays. The markets, the food, and the general holiday cheer makes this trip one-of-a-kind. We have done a similar trip once before over the same period in 2018 and it's among my favorite group trips we have done. Plus, there's no better time to create some new holiday traditions than the year 2025. 

If you have never been and want to experience Chelsea for the first time - we have the experience to show an authentic match-going experience (we have organized 6 previous group trips that have been special in their own ways). If you have been and want to go back, we aim to make it easy to do so. 

Another reason for excitement is that this will be the first true away match that we will have taken as a group as well (Crystal Palace simply doesn't count for so many reasons). Heck, I've never been to Manchester so the chance to see Oasis cover bands and to see the Etihad empty out after Chelsea win 3-0 is as good of a reason as any to visit. 

Matches:

• 12/27: Chelsea v. Aston Villa (otherwise known as the Matt Law Derby)

• 12/30: Chelsea v. Bournemouth

• 1/3: Chelsea at Manchester City 

• Other activities: At least one live pod, Stamford Bridge stadium tour, visiting the Holiday Markets, NYE party, and more.

Disclaimer: Part of the reason that we work with a travel company like XL Tours is due to their ability to secure legitimate Chelsea tickets. I'm sure you have all heard of difficulties securing tickets, the extra cost that comes from ticket touts, or even the influx of fake tickets. That is not an issue with XL Tours. We typically get tickets in Westview or East stand at the Bridge. 

The best part about our group trips with XL Tours is how customizable they are. Charlotte is more than happy to extend your trip if you want to spend more time in London, help secure tickets to West End shows or other sporting events, and coordinate any additional transport needed. Please email her if you have any questions: [email protected]

We'd love for you to join us for a festive LIBP experience. 

Keep the blue flag flying high, 

Nick
