2025-26 season: Fans facing another summer of price hikes
Matchgoing fans in the Premier League are facing yet another summer of eye-watering price hikes to matchday and season ticket prices.
In total, 13 of the 20 Premier League clubs have decided to increase their prices for the new season after a year of growing discontent around the issue with increases ranging from 3%-14%.
Brentford, Burnley, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur and Wolverhampton Wanderers are the only clubs in the division to announce price freezes for 2025-26.
FSA chair Tom Greatrex said:
“This season has seen supporter groups across the top-flight campaign together under the ‘Stop Exploiting Loyalty’ banner.
“They put rivalries aside to oppose rising ticket costs and attacks on concessions which threaten to price out younger and older fans.
“Seven top-flight clubs have announced price freezes and we don’t believe that would have happened without fan protests.
“Matchgoers have had enough of inflation-busting price hikes, which are up 19% since COVID. It’s time for clubs to listen.”
It follows last week’s more positive news that the Premier League will extend its £30 cap on away tickets into next season.
The cap was introduced in 2016 following a successful Football Supporters’ Federation campaign (one of the FSA’s predecessors).
Tom said: “The away cap is a universally popular measure that has collectively saved supporters millions of pounds – it shows what can be achieved when supporters work together.”
Last summer, the FSA launched the #StopExploitingLoyalty campaign in response to the problem of ever-rising ticket prices. Protests were held across the division and you can read more about the campaign here.
