Fan representatives from the Football Supporters’ Association women’s network – covering clubs playing in the FAWSL, FAWCL and FAWNL – took part in a fan forum with the FA on Monday 6th July.

Most fans heading out to the tournament this year will have already purchased their 2018 World Cup tickets, whether you are supporting England, indulging in some football tourism by taking in some other games, or a bit of both. With your tickets in the bag your planning for Russia is likely to be in full swing. So with the tournament less than 100 days away what’s next for travelling supporters?

As preparations for the World Cup continue, the latest in our series of blogs ahead of the tournament looks at the issues faced by LGBT+ fans who are thinking of heading out to the World Cup in Russia. We have pulled together the following advice and information in partnership with various LGBT+ supporter groups and Stonewall, to ensure fans are aware of the issues they may face at the tournament this summer.
