Man Utd tickets can be difficult to find and difficult to understand how to get hold of. The club doesn’t explain in simple terms how to get hold of tickets officially. This can result in fans giving ticket touts your hard earned cash. Here will we explain how the process works. So let’s start at the beginning and give you some tips on buying Man Utd tickets online.

Each season Man Utd enter the Premier League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup and the Champions League or Europa League depending on which of the European competitions they qualify for (if any). This season (2024/2025) the Red Devils have qualified for the Europa League. They play 19 home Premier League games each season. In addition to this they will play a minimum of 4 home UEFA Europa League – league stage games. Carabao Cup and FA Cup games depend on the draw for each round. If United are drawn as the first team, they will play at home; if drawn as the second team, they will play away.

Man Utd have over 50,000 season ticket holders in a stadium that holds 74,310. Each season ticket holder is given the option as to which cup competitions they opt in to automatically get tickets for. If enough season ticket holders opt out of cup competitions United offer a Cup season ticket to some fans. A cup season ticket guarantees you a ticket to each of the cup games that are played at Old Trafford. The remaining seats at Old Trafford are sold to members. If you are not lucky enough to be a full season ticket or cup season ticket holder but still want to go to a game at Old Trafford a membership is your best option.

Membership Types

Man Utd offer a few different types of membership. Premium, Full and Lite are the ones we will concentrate on for now. A premium membership will cost you £75, a full membership £40, and a lite membership £35. You will need to have a valid membership to purchase any tickets directly from Manchester United. Each seat will need its’ own membership.

Man Utd Tickets Website

United’s ticket website can be a nightmare to navigate. Each game will say Buy Now. Once you proceed to the next step, ticket prices can range from £150 to £995. This is because United sell hospitality tickets for all games. Regular tickets are released to members during ticket release dates. These normally take place at 10:00 on certain dates. To stay updated on ticket release dates, consider signing up for Man Utd tickets alert emails.

When Man Utd arranges a ticket drop, the website often becomes chaotic and sometimes crashes. Joining the virtual queue early doesn’t affect your position, as everyone is randomly assigned a place. Red Devil Threads writers have seen queue numbers as high as 230,000. If this happens, don’t panic. Stay patient and remain in the queue until you gain access. If tickets are sold out or unavailable, keep refreshing for over an hour. You might get lucky if tickets reappear after someone fails to complete their purchase.

For bigger games usually against Liverpool, Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal and bigger cup games Man Utd adopt a ballot system. Members have approximately 2 weeks to apply for the ballot, and if successful, payment will be immediately deducted from your chosen payment method.

Season ticket holders have the opportunity to sell their tickets back to the club and receive a complete refund. Typically, once these tickets become available on the website, they are quickly claimed by eager buyers. However, it’s worthwhile to invest some time refreshing the website in the days leading up to the game, as there’s a chance that a few tickets may become available for purchase. Unfortunately these last minute tickets tend to be single seats but it is worth checking. Make sure you are logged into the Man Utd ticket website and have a valid membership.

Man Utd Tickets Prices

Fixtures

If you are trying to organise your trip to Old Trafford in advance buying flights, hotels and trains please be careful. The majority of fixtures will be listed as Saturday 15:00 hours.

A Premier League statement said: “The Premier League has committed to giving supporters a minimum of six weeks’ notice (from the first match in the relevant month) on broadcast selections until December 2024, and five weeks’ from January 2025 until Match Round 37.”
