Champions League Final | Ticket Criteria | SOLD OUT

[Bluemanc100]

How can tickets be costing between 500-700 quid. I know there are cheaper ones but fhck me, that is just obscene

It is obscene but what can you do? Pay it or don’t go

 

[xgorton]

My window opens at 10am on Monday. I’m on 18,490 points. Seems like a long time to wait for a small drop in points. Does that mean they’re expecting it to sell out at high points?

No way will it sell out on high PTS, don't worry.

 

[RACHACE]

Am I right in saying that me and my wife are likely to get separate access codes? I ordered the 2 access codes from City so I was hoping that they'd send them both to me.

Then I even have to request to sit next to my wife once the tickets are purchased?

“Supply n Demand Rodney, Supply & Demand”

Think yourself lucky you don’t follow an NFL team playing in the Super Bowl. You wouldn’t be able to get ANY ticket for under A GRAND [emoji15]

But you are correct, it’s an obscene amount for 90 minutes of entertainment.

 

[Wayno2110]

Like your all saying though! Be a top few days regardless of getting a ticket or not! I’ve got my flight and hotel in taksim square sorted! Will try for a ticket but it’s not the end of the world if I don’t get one! Be a great atmosphere everywhere, plus the match will be shown all over the city in bars and pubs I’m presuming?

They're staggering it in part to make sure they can control in case there are any major fuck ups.

I would expect this to be selling into next week beyond the current criteria.

 

[DavidChubs]

My Mum & Dad qualify at 3pm today, but haven't had the sales info email. I don't qualify until Monday, but I've had the email. Should I worry yet? The are out of the country & need me to get them.

Yes, but you're not guaranteed to be sat together! What a shambles of a system this is. They're going backwards in technology.

Im on 16.5k points and had an email telling me my slot but no code yet??

I'm on over 12k and heard nothing since the original message that was sent out last week

 

[simmo]

I think this will be simpler than we anticipate for most, It just seems over explained for some reason with confusing wording that really doesn't help.

Only thing they haven't properly clarified is who gets emailed the access codes. As an example, I applied for 3 codes through my friends and family on my account as I'm always the one that sorts away tickets out and cup games etc. the email suggests to me all access codes will be sent individually to the account holders registered email instead of sending them all to my email as the one who "purchased" the access codes creating a massive ballache. The entire point of applying for them on my account was so I could be in control of purchasing all 3.

If you go into your account - see if under ‘welcome tab’ it has a statement of your code will appear here when your window opens. My mate has that on his account and a link to uefa.

Might help answer your question.

You've missed it on your email.

Half of the questions on here can be found in 2min.

A can't decide if its just proper panic or pure laziness.

 

[The Northern Baptist]

I hardly know anyone who is going either. Personally, I’m undecided. I don’t trust UEFA or turkey with the logistics of the thing if I’m honest. I would have to take my two lads and I’m imagining some shit seat at the front or miles away with the sun in your eyes, no atmosphere because there’s no roof and then waiting for 3 hours sobering up with a headache waiting for one of the 6 buses. Also, if we do make history, lart of me wants to be with my family and friends who were with me through the whole journey.

As someone else says above, I also believe that to have any chance of getting close to selling out City need to get these tickets available to overseas and casual fans. Yes, tourist types. I think we will need thousands of them to buy tickets and for that they’ll need to be on open sale.

The criteria announced by city suggests that this isn’t the case and it sells out to people on the Cup scheme. A marvellous effort by our supporter base in a very tricky financial climate.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Is the ticket emailed to you or on the UEFA app? If so what’s to stop people transferring it?

check spam

 

[TedofChume]

I have an email from City confirming my purchase date and time - Monday at 4pm. Seems a little hit-and-miss with the email distribution.

If they're sending several thousand emails they'll probably sxhedule them to ensure they don't get picked out by any spamming software. I've not had an email yet, but b I'm sure it will come.

 

[Oyster28catcher]

"UEFA has advised that a limited number of seats with restricted views, these are priced as follows: Category 1 (£478), Category 2 (£339), Category 3 (£121), Category 4 (£48)."

So, they chose a place with restricted views as their premier cup's top-level final venue... oh UEFA!

 

[ninjamonkey]

Did the other lads you applied for get sent their own emails this morning too? My cousin who I applied for as well hasn’t received anything

Not sure actually. I suspect everybody got that email or should have. Try checking spam. My Brighton ticket and a few other emails have been going to spam recently when that's never happened.

Am I right in saying that me and my wife are likely to get separate access codes? I ordered the 2 access codes from City so I was hoping that they'd send them both to me.

Same question I was wondering above. Email would suggest you'll get one and your wife will get another emailed to her.

In terms of sitting together you can buy upto 4 tickets on your account if you've got seperate access codes by clicking "add more tickets" once you've added your own ticket to the basket. All tickets purchased together will presumably be issued together and you won't have to do the seat with option.

 

[Georgian Maestro]

The club might well be just exercising a bit of caution with the sales process. They try to put out the criteria to the point at which they think it will sell out. Given the unpredictability of how many access codes will be taken up, they perhaps don't want to get too many hopes up by extending it beyond cup scheme members in the first instance.

I'm starting to think the club have already syphoned off thousands for corporate packages.

 

[TedofChume]

Based on previous years, some 75-80% of the allocation is cat 3 and 4.

Cat 1 and Cat 2 are the sides

Cat 3 and Cat 4 behind the goal

Cat 4 Restricted view, back corners

 

[Oyster28catcher]

"UEFA has confirmed that there will be no concessionary ticket prices for this match."

Europe, EEC/EU or otherwise have standard concessions for most things BUT not UEFA££££$$$$$

Laughable.
