UEFA Announces Reduced Ticket Prices Caps For Men’s European Cup Competitions
UEFA has today announced a reduction on the maximum ticket prices that home clubs can charge visiting fans across its three men’s club competitions.
The decision is aimed at underscoring UEFA’s commitment to making European football more accessible and affordable for all supporters.
Endorsed by the UEFA Club Competitions Committee, the decision will take effect in the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League and UEFA Conference League.
Starting with the 2024/25 season, the maximum ticket prices for away fans will be €60 in the UEFA Champions League, €40 in the UEFA Europa League and €20 in the UEFA Conference League. This will be further reduced in the 2025/26 season to a maximum price of €50 in the UEFA Champions League, €35 in the UEFA Europa League and still €20 in the UEFA Conference League.
The decision comes after extensive consultation with the European Club Association (ECA) and Football Supporters Europe (FSE); and is part of wider, collective work to improve the fan experience in European football competitions and reflects a shared commitment among UEFA and stakeholders to put fans first.
Commenting on the decision, UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin, said: “Today’s decision marks another key step in reaffirming UEFA’s commitment to enhancing the matchday experience for all fans.
“By introducing more fan-friendly policies, we continue our mission to keep football as an inclusive sport where supporters who travel across Europe to follow their teams are valued and recognised.”
ECA Chairman Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, added: “Lowering the price cap of the ticket prices for visiting supporters in the new UEFA men’s club competitions is an important signal from all ECA’s member clubs in actively contributing to improving the overall match experience for fans.
“ECA’s collaboration with UEFA and the fans’ representatives through FSE is fundamental in ensuring travelling supporters can enjoy following their teams across Europe to the maximum.”
Ronan Evain, Executive Director of FSE, concluded: “The revised price caps are further recognition of how integral away fans are to the atmosphere of European club fixtures.
“Today’s decision illustrates another positive achievement in FSE’s joint work with UEFA and clubs on improving conditions for fans traveling across Europe.”
