Season Tickets 2024

Looking at the various Twitter accounts for jersey launches, many clubs are already announcing their season ticket prices, so here's the current state of play:

Premier Division:

Bohemians: TBC
Derry City: £285
Drogheda United: €250 (€230 early bird)
Dundalk: TBC
Galway United: €240
St Pat's: 2023 Renewals Only - €280 last year (€252 early bird)
Shamrock Rovers: €260 Renewal (€235 early bird), €300 New (€260 early bird)
Shelbourne: €275 (New), €250 (Renewal)
Sligo Rovers: €290
Waterford: €270 (€250 early bird)

First Division:

Finn Harps: €208 early bird seated, €182 early bird terrace

All prices above are for standard adult tickets.

I think a bohs season ticket is about 250, and about 200 for behind the goal.
Membership is 365. Priority is memberships, to promote the fan ownership idea. We have atm got about 2000 members so season tickets and memberships will depend on people not renewing, usually about 200 become available otherwise we’re sold out again.

Incidentally how much is a membership rather than a season ticket at rovers?

600 a year

Prices much different to last year? Match tickets prices havent changed much in a long time so with so many sell outs I'm wondering will individual tickets go up next season

LOITV Season ticket now available for 2024. €120. Didn't spot any 'early bird' discount

Derry tickets up £22. Match tickets are up a pound to £19.
I know we pay VAT, but we've dearest tickets in Ireland, a hundred quid more than anyone IL. It's not cheap.
Though I'll counter that with the fact that basically every match is a sell out.

Good point, the cost of going to LOI games was basically static for a long number of years, so would be interested to see what general admission prices for clubs will be, compared then with season tickets. At €20 general entry then 18 homes games is €360 so season tickets look good value. At €15, then no value in a season ticket, but of course a great way to support your club.

Quick comparsion with Rochdale, now playing in conference in England. Cheapest Adult ticket is 20gbp, dearest is 24gbp - thats 27euro, can you imagine one of our clubs trying to charge that!

£19 a ticket is almost €22. That's punchy for the LOI.

Will be interesting to see how tickets go at that price when the club has a new stand and another 2,500 or so tickets to shift. Or will the new terrace be much cheaper?

Individual match tickets going up from €15 to €18 or €20 for category A games at Waterford. Understandable as we are in the Premier division now and haven't seen complaints about this. Big interest in season tickets down here at moment.

Any word from kerry fc on pricing.

LOI riding the crest of the wave currently in terms of interest and attendances, but if clubs take the p1ss with ticket pricing, they could find themselves under water fairly quickly.

Pricing people out of games is not the way forward, and making it expensive for families to attend is not the way to increase interest further.

When tickets start to get to €20 and above for league matches, people need to put on the brakes a bit.

The new stand/terrace won't be available until the summer.
Those tickets will probably be £15/16.

Derry's season tickets will be using the same type of system as the FAI does for theirs. You'll be able to transfer individual match tickets, in case you aren't using them. Also, if you want a physical card, you'll be charged a bit extra.

Rumours they may come down to a distinctly more realistic €220, but yet to be confirmed.

Exactly. Lots of German and English teams have a “20 is plenty” slogan they use to lobby for affordable tickets. Bayern had a banner with it at Anfield recently. And that’s to watch the biggest clubs in the world!!
If LOI clubs start charging upwards of €20 they’ll shoot themselves in the foot.
I get that they need to increase revenue but the way to do that is to get your sh!t together and get bigger and better grounds. Then you’ll also have a better chance of a proper tv deal.

I think that's just for away tickets though isn't it? Meaning home supporters are still likely getting shafted.

I was at Bristol Rovers v Northampton Town recently (League One). Paying on the day, a terrace ticket was £26, but since the only standing tickets left couldn't guarantee cover on a very rainy day, I opted for a seat in the main stand instead: £36!

Thing is, both teams are/were mid-table yet still they drew 8.5k (capacity is 9.8k?)

Afaik the main stand in Richmond will be €22 next season. It’s getting close to the max that can be charged for such decrepit facilities.

You can still get standing tickets to watch Bayern, Dortmund and loads of other Bundesliga clubs for under €20. And that’s not a season ticket, I’m talking about a single match day ticket - “tageskarten”.

Completely agree I'm expecting the post-covid attendance boom to flatten sooner rather than later, it's not even a case where some clubs are increasing match day prices to incentivise purchase of season ticket sales as season tickets are also experiencing corresponding or larger price increases, you may get 18 games for the price of 15/16 games with a season ticket now when years ago that would would be price of 13/14 games definitely in Shels case anyway

Just got an email , kerry tickets same as last year. 275. Bit disappointed they haven't dropped a bit.

In England at the lower levels of football its not cheap going to games. These are all sterling, Rochdale, now in conf cheapest adult is 20, dearest is 24, Oxford City who only came up from the lower level its 18 on match days.
Flyde have tickets from 12 to best seats at 35.
Kings Lynn play in 6th tier , cheapest adult is 18, upto 23 for a seat.
Going down a level Hyde United charge 15 for seats and 14 for terrace.

None of our first division clubs could charge 20, and I dont know if any of our clubs have developed ticketing/seating where you pay a significant premium for where you sit. That Flyde one is just over €40!

Hartlepool was £20 for the main stand against Rochdale a few weeks back. The prices haven’t dropped since relegation.

What are Pats looking at for single games for stand, and do they do anything for higher category games? Cant but think the 6 Dublin derbies will sell out and could have a premium on them.

Works out at €15.27 per match over the expected 18 home league games! The matchday price was €15.

The LOITV season ticket has remained at €120. I didn't watch many other games as the majority clashed with Kerry's this season.

Not much incentive on those figures. I'll probably still get one just for convenience

LTFC season tickets is 210 for an adult, and they have a combo for €300 that includes LOITV.
Assume matches are still €15, so being charged for 14 of 18 games, throw in a €30 saving on LOITV, pretty good.

But the best deal they have imo is the adult plus kids and family tickets. Family is 2 adults plus 2 kids for €450. That would be €720 at the gate.

Always thought clubs should do that. Strange that more haven't. €120 for LoI TV is a big whack, and any saving might squeeze some extra money out of people who may just use a dodgy box instead.

Prices up,no student discount…

One tweet says “ Two years ago my Senior season ticket in the 1st Div was €65.

Last year in the Premier Div it was €110.

Next season in the 1st Div its €150.


Another saying the price of an adult and child was 380 in the first division 2 years ago now costs 520…..

Rovers have sold 3.400 season tickets already, with the South Stand sold out.
Good numbers and some guaranteed revenue for the club.

Thats amazing from Rovers, how does it compare with last season?

• Rovers Website news article- we passed the 3,000 sales mark and celebrated with a fan promotion winning a Jack Byrne signed new season shirt.
• 40% increase in ST sales as of the end of November 2022 v 2023
• 10% of sales are first-time buyers
• Close to 10% of sales availing of the North Stand Family offer (U12 goes free with an adult purchase for our new Family Stand)
• 20% availing of our new staged payment facility
• South Stand is about to sell out
• More than 10% of ticket buyers are from outside Dublin
• Exceptional value at €235 for Adults in fully covered seating throughout the stadium (equivalent of 6.3 free games when compared to individual match ticket prices)
• Commemorative 125 Years pin badge free to all sales made pre-Christmas post-out deadline (excluding child)

The Blues have announced over 1,000 season tickets have been sold after just a couple weeks of being on sale. A season ticket record for the club.

be fine if they were in prem, but not great when dropping to,div 1

That must be the first time I have ever seen Adult and Student season tickets priced exactly the same anywhere absolutely bizarre that one from Cork and increasing some of the other categories when you are now relegated to the First Division isn't exactly fan friendly either
