Manchester City have announced that the cost of the club’s match tickets next season are to be frozen. General admission season tickets and individual match tickets will cost the same as they did this season.
The announcement comes after City fans held a protest during the club’s Premier League tie against relegation-bound Leicester City last Wednesday. Supporters did not take their seats until after the first nine minutes of the game.
The protest was due to concerns over price hikes for fans and the club’s new partnership with Viagogo, a ticketing platform. Fans believe that the partnership will lead to even higher ticket costs.
The new resolution was made after what appears to have been positive dialogue between the club’s hierarchy and City Matters, the club’s official fan engagement body.
In a statement, the club said: “Manchester City can confirm that general admission season ticket and Premier League match-by-match ticket prices will be frozen for the 2025-26 season. This follows the club’s latest consultation meeting with its elected fan engagement programme, City Matters, and reflects the positive and constructive dialogue that has taken place over recent weeks.
“The club would like to thank City Matters representatives for the feedback they provide on a range of topics relating to ticketing, and for sharing a broad range of perspectives from the fans they represent.
“The club and City Matters will continue their ongoing discussions and consultations throughout the coming months around the evolution of the fan experience on match-day in the redeveloped and expanded Etihad Stadium.”
