Manchester City today announces Seasoncard prices and policies for the 2010/11 season.
In line with the Club’s policy and aim to be both innovative and fair, we have implemented a groundbreaking new range of ticketing products.
Having listened to feedback from our fans, we can now offer a wider choice of Stadium experiences with prices and facilities to match. Many changes will be made to certain areas of the concourses over this and subsequent summers, which will result in a range of products to suit each and every type of fan.
A brand new Value ticket will be introduced that will cost just £250, or just over £13 per game. This represents a 32% reduction on our lowest priced adult Seasoncard. There is currently only one other Premier League club offering a cheaper product.
The £95 season card for under 16s remains for those sitting in the Family Stand. This area of the North Stand will see significant improvements to facilities, with family orientated stewarding, tailored children’s entertainment and family friendly food and drink options.
The average price increase for adults next season will be just over 5%, but fans in some seats will see a decrease in what they pay. Many supporters, particularly in areas of high demand, will benefit from an enhanced matchday experience.
The popular South Stand will be expanded, with improved food offering, multi-pour drink dispensers and entertainment and atmosphere suited to this singing section.
A “premium” product package, also a response to fans’ feedback, will follow next season.
The Club will be pleased to assist with fans wishing to relocate from their current seat to benefit from any of the new products on offer.
Chief Executive Officer Garry Cook said,
“Our fans are at the heart of our Club and our absolute priority is to deliver a premium matchday experience to them, wherever they sit in the ground.
The range of options which is now on offer is as a result of both direct supporter feedback and a huge amount of effort and innovative thought by my team. We are showing a continued commitment to families and young supporters as well as offering a value product for adults and we will develop improved packages in the seasons to come.
