Arsenal Tickets

Options
I want to buy a pair of Arsenal tickets for my OH & his friend to go and watch a match. We agreed to get each others Xmas prssie after the day, and we can spend £60 each. Is this unrealistic or can u get them for this amount. I have no idea of footie prices/ matches etc and he doesnt know im planning this so cnt ask him.
Thanku in advance for any help.

  • To be honest, I don't think you'll get a pair of tickets for £60.

    Arsenal tickets are sold to their members first, then leftovers are eventually offered to the general public. I think big matches usually sell out before they get that far.

    My stepson is a fan, so I buy him tickets to the Emirates Cup in the summer, which is cheaper and easier to get tickets for. The tickets go on sale around May/June and the games are in early August.

    Keep checking the Arsenal website as more tickets this year have gone on general sale. Your budget would be ok for certain areas (lower tier i think).

    Carling cup games in September are usually good ones to go for and they sell for £5 or £10 .. it is the reserves, but a great atmosphere! and its Arsenal!
  • Your only chances are the Carling Cup or The Emirates Cup games.

    Forget league games unless you go to a specialist & that will cost a hell of a lot more.

    These are the remaining fixtures for the season..probably the only one that might go to general sale would be wolverhampton and those go on sale to silver members 3rd feb and red members 3rd march... It also depends on how we are doing in the league of course..
