UEFA has implemented a significant change in ticket pricing for this season’s Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League by introducing a price cap for away fans. The cap sets maximum ticket prices at €60 for the Champions League, €40 for the Europa League, and €20 for the Conference League, with plans to reduce these prices further in the next season to €50, €35, and €20 respectively.
This decision was made after consultations with the European Clubs’ Association and Football Supporters’ Europe, aiming to make following their teams more affordable for fans traveling across Europe.
For the 2024/25 season, away fans will enjoy capped ticket prices, and by the 2025/26 season, these caps will decrease, reflecting UEFA’s commitment to fan accessibility.
Premier League clubs like Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Aston Villa, who are competing in the Champions League, will benefit from this, as their fans face four away trips. Tottenham and Manchester United fans will see similar benefits in the Europa League, while Chelsea supporters will have three away games in the Conference League.
Further benefits could accrue in the knockout stages, should these teams advance from their groups. Teams finishing in the top 24 will proceed to the knockout rounds, while those in the top eight will bypass the play-off round, entering directly into the Last 16. This development is poised to be well-received by fans planning to follow their teams abroad in UEFA competitions.
