WSL 2026/27 match by match ticketing update | OneFootball

After a record number of fans signed up as Season Ticket Holders for the 2026/27 WSL season, City can now share exciting details about match-by-match ticketing.

From a new staggered ticket release process to enhanced flexibility for supporters and the introduction of Early Bird pricing, here’s everything fans need to know ahead of the new campaign...

Key dates

NOTIFY ME WHEN TICKETS GO ON SALE

A new approach to ticket sales

Instead of releasing tickets for every home fixture at once, Women’s First Team tickets will go on sale in staggered phases throughout the season.

This gives supporters more notice of upcoming fixtures while giving priority access to those who attend regularly.

Who gets priority access?

Additional sales criteria may apply for selected fixtures and will be communicated before each ticket release and before going on General Sale.

Pricing and Early Bird

Every fixture will be allocated to one of three pricing categories (A+, A or B).

The pricing category for each fixture will be displayed before tickets go on sale, alongside a full pricing table. Concessions and Under-18s pricing are available.

An Early Bird ticket window will also be introduced for WSL fixtures, allowing supporters to purchase tickets at a discounted price before standard pricing applies.

Fans will be able to save up to £5 per ticket, depending on their seating location, with every Joie Stadium ticket purchased during the Early Bird window automatically receiving one entry into a ballot for the chance to watch the team arrive before the match.

One ballot entry is awarded per order, and winners will be contacted approximately one week before the fixture.

Ticket Flexibility

We understand plans can change, so we’ve introduced greater flexibility for supporters.

Season Ticket Holders can continue to transfer or exchange their seat at the Joie Stadium in line with the Club’s existing policy.

Match-by-match purchasers will be able to transfer their ticket to someone on their Trusted Friends & Family list, helping ensure every seat is used.

Etihad Stadium fixtures

Two WSL fixtures will be played at the Etihad Stadium, with opponents confirmed once the league fixtures are released on Thursday.

Supporters can purchase a two-game Etihad Pass from the first ticket release as well as the individual tickets for the first Etihad fixture at the Early Bird price.

Fans will be able to reserve the same seat for both games and benefit from the best-value pricing offer for the two Etihad games.

Details of the ticket drop for the second Etihad Stadium fixture will be communicated well in advance of its ticket release.

Alcohol in the stands

Following the successful conclusion of the WSL alcohol-in-bowl trial, supporters will once again be able to consume alcohol in the stands at Women’s Super League fixtures during the 2026/27 season.

The Family Area at the Joie Stadium (West Stand Blocks 1–3) and Blocks 037–042 at the Etihad Stadium will remain alcohol-free.

Hospitality

Hospitality packages will be available for every home fixture at both the Joie Stadium and Etihad Stadium.

Season Ticket Holders will receive exclusive priority access from Thursday 30 July before packages go on General Sale online from Monday 3 August.
