Match Day Ticket Prices – A Step in the Right Direction!
June 26, 2025 · by Comms Sub Group
Leicester City have today announced the cost of match day tickets for the 2025/26 season in The Championship. The Foxes Trust is encouraged to see that they have listened, and acted upon, fan feedback.
We have been engaging with the club, both directly, and through the Fan Engagement Framework, since early-February to make the case for more affordable and attainable tickets to attract the next generation of supporters.
Whilst the price of matchday tickets in modern football is considered by many to be too expensive (and early indications from our end of season survey closing on 27th June indicate that almost 70% of fans feel the cost of match day tickets is unfair), many clubs across the top two divisions of English football have been increasing ticket prices in recent years.
Based on supporters views the Foxes Trust set out in an Open Letter to the Club on 27th February that, should we be relegated back to The Championship, at a bare minimum ticket prices should return to levels used in the 2023/24 season when we were last playing football at this level. We also told the Club we wanted to see more of the sensible pricing used for FA Cup games in order to get increased attendances and the next generation of supporters inside the stadium.
Thanks to your voice on ticket pricing, and the Trust taking up this issue on your behalf (in collaboration with other supporter groups) through the Fan Engagement Framework, we have today seen a step in the right direction on ticket pricing by the Club as pricing across Categories A & B will remain at 2023/24 levels and new Categories C & D is introduced for a minimum of five games (at lower cost than any home league game during our last season in The Championship).
We still have no indication on the Club’s approach to the general sale of tickets so, at the next Fans Consultative Committee Working Group meeting on 10th July, the Trust will be encouraging the club to re-introduce general sale for home league games more regularly than it has done in the past to ensure capacity crowds at the King Power Stadium.
But, today, it should be commended that Leicester City have listened to fan feedback on match day ticket prices and taken a step in the right direction to give as many fans as possible the chance to see their team live in action this upcoming season.
