Petr Cech, Claude Makelele, Claire Rafferty, Carlo Cudicini and Boris Becker are special guests for a series of Q&A sessions, while there will also be entertainment from comedian Jerry Kay and music from ska band, the Skatonics.

As we approach the 50th anniversary of our famous 1970 FA Cup triumph, there will several members of that in team in attendance too. In total, 50 or so former players will be at the event.

The traditional date in the club calendar gives an opportunity for supporters and some of our legendary past players to celebrate all things Chelsea. Tickets for the event, which takes place on Friday 6 December at Stamford Bridge, are now on sale.

Tickets include an afternoon of entertainment, access to a drinks reception, three-course meal, and half a bottle of wine per person and beer. They can be purchased online from £170 + VAT per person.

All proceeds raised on the day will go to the Past Players’ Trust and the Chelsea Foundation.
