Cork City have gone up to 25 this season which has caused a bit of a storm.
What are other ticket prices around the League for a standard adult ticket?
A quick scan of this weekend's fixtures I see
Shels 20 v Derry but 22 in a few weeks against Rovers (I guess Cat A game)
St Pat's v Drogs 18 Camac Terrace, 20 Patron Stand (both including the 2 ticket charge they add on)
Drogs 20 v Sligo
Sligo 21 v Waterford (including 1 fee)
Waterford 20 for both stands (I couldn't check if there was a fee or not as you have to log in to reach the checkout)
Rovers 21 v Cork (including 1 fee) - interestingly their game against Pat's is the same price, I thought last season they had the derbies as Cat A and a bit more expensive.
Galway United, Derry and Bohs don't have tickets up online for any home matches this season.
When I've a bit more time I'll try to compare to other sporting events to see how the pricing, particularly the 25 stacks up.

Ticket Prices
I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak, it said - "At the tone you will be very much alone" -
Connacht are at home to Cardiff in the URC this weekend - its 32 for uncovered standing terrace behind each goal for an adult ticket; and 47 for the enclosed stand (think there are some seats available there from memory) on the Eyre Square end for adult ticket.
The open stand (again, a standing terrace) in front of the enclosure is sold out and no prices available. Stand/terrace in opposite side is under construction, so I dont know if reduced capacity this season has meant an increase in prices -
Cork City are also introducing a Five-Match-Pack for 100, which will allow supporters to purchase a package for five matches at a discounted rate.

NI Premier went up to £15 this season which a few arent happy about

Interesting - I had a look at other rugby provinces and there are differences between them.

Leinster in the URC at Aviva - 27.95 is the cheapest ticket up to 66.60 (not including Premium level tickets). That's against an Italian team, prices for the Ulster game were a few quid more expensive.
GAA League fixtures look to be 20 across the board (not including any handling fee).I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak, it said - "At the tone you will be very much alone" -
When did prices in Prem start going up, was it after crowds began to increase? Inflation from 2018 to end of 2024 was about 20%?

£15 = 18 (approx). That is the new maximum price the clubs can charge in the Premiership, though I'm pretty sure no-one is discounting below that. This is an increase of 15.4% on last season, when the maximum was £13 (15.60). Originally Posted by DCSIL

This means that Premiership ticket prices have increased by 20% in two seasons, and 50% since 2017. At end of the 2022/23 campaign, that maximum price was raised from £12 (14.40) to £13, which has been followed by this years £2 increase. As recently as the 2016/17 term, entry was capped at £10 (12).
While clubs in NI, inc DCFC (obv), also have to pay 20% VAT on tickets revenues. -

I'm not a fan of LOI ticket prices breaching the 20 mark I still think way more scope for clubs to increase attendances/fanbases though I do understand the arguments of supply/demand and if you want to see your club being full-time professional competing in Europe then pay your contribution. Cork at 25 is utterly ridiculous for what is going to be a bad team this season who will do well not to yo-yo back to the First Division for 2026
2022 Premier Division 15
2023 Premier Division 17
2024 Premier Division 20 CAT A (Bohs, Pats, Rovers) / 17 CAT B (Derry, Drogheda, Dundalk, Galway, Sligo, Waterford) / 22 European games (St. Joseph's. FC Zurich)
2025 Premier Division 22 CAT A (Bohs, Pats, Rovers) / 20 CAT B (Cork, Derry, Drogheda, Galway, Sligo, Waterford)

The Leinster Senior League needs a strong Bohemians -
Not sure tbh better leave it to the experts? Originally Posted by joey B

I'm on expert on reading if that helps
"Student/OAP Ticket 10.00 each
Entry for Student/OAP, you may be asked for ID.
Students (13-18), OAP's (Over 65's)"
So I think the answer is yes

While the league is on a huge upward trajectory, a lot of the facility upgrades, cost of maintaining existing grounds has risen every year. League of Ireland players are getting well paid now at the Premier Division and lots of money in some clubs in the first, as shown by Athlone, Cobh & Dundalk this season.
Ive always maintained that charging 15 - 20 euro is fine, even 25 if the facility is up to par with the best out there. You get 2-3 hours of entertainment (good or bad). The GAA which is seeing a huge drop in attendances, playing the worse football Ive ever seen, are charing 20-30 euro for a 1 hour match, which 8 times out of 10 (Gaelic), are brutal to watch, hurling is brilliant. -
Id go to Louth games and this season it's 20 into league games, 15 OAP and 5 under 16 Originally Posted by dansultheman

Don't know how much a season ticket is, as I didn't want one this year as with all the long trips for Dundalk ahead, the other half wouldn't be happy with me going to Cork to watch Louth on a Sunday
