<p>Atlanta United fans, brace yourselves for a change. The Five Stripes faithful will see an increase in season ticket prices for the 2025 MLS season, as reported by <a href="https://www.ajc.com/sports/atlanta-united/atlanta-united-season-ticket-prices-will-go-up-for-2025-mls-season/GI2YKUC5IFCITJCL52UBFOLW2M/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Atlanta Journal-Constitution</a>. </p>



<p>The average ticket price will rise by $10 per match, translating to a 6% overall increase. </p>



<p>This <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/atlanta-united-to-raise-transfer-budget-of-50-million/">price hike</a>, detailed in a recent announcement by club president Garth Lagerwey, comes amid significant changes within the club, both on and off the field.</p>



<p>The new season-ticket package for 2025 will include 18 matches: 17 MLS games and one Leagues Cup home match. </p>



<p>The price adjustments will vary depending on the seating category. Club seats will see the most substantial increase, with an additional $10 per ticket per match; amounting to $180 more for the season. </p>



<p>Non-club seats will rise by an average of $2.70 per ticket per match, totaling an extra $48.60 for the season. Supporters section tickets will increase by $1.89 per ticket per match, resulting in a $34.02 total increase for the season.</p>



<p>Despite these increases, the club aims to maintain a balance between price and benefit. Lagerwey acknowledged, “I understand that some ticket-holders will be displeased by the increase. </p>



<p>We’re always looking at the balance, so price versus benefit, and we believe this is the right balance for us.”</p>

<h2>What do Atlanta offer to renewing season ticket holders?</h2>



<p>VP of Sales &amp; Service Don Rovak expressed confidence in a high retention rate, expecting at least 90% of current season-ticket holders to renew. </p>



<p>Renewing season-ticket holders will continue to enjoy several benefits, including a free Apple MLS season pass. </p>



<p>The club will also cover tickets for away matches (excluding <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/inter-miami-tv-schedule/">Inter Miami</a>), a ticket transfer program, and a new buy-back program for unused tickets.</p>



<p>The buy-back program is particularly noteworthy. It allows fans to receive credits for the following season if they cannot attend specific matches. This initiative is part of the club’s broader effort to provide flexible options for their loyal supporters.</p>



<h2>On-field challenges and how it affects club</h2>



<p>Atlanta United currently sits in 10th place in the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/where-to-watch-mls-on-us-tv-and-internet/">Eastern Conference</a>, a position that has prompted significant changes within the team. </p>



<p>The club recently fired manager Gonzalo Pineda and sold key players Giorgos Giakoumakis and Thiago Almada. Another standout player, Caleb Wiley, is reportedly on the verge of being sold. Additionally, the team was eliminated from the US Open Cup by USL-side Indy Eleven.</p>



<p>Addressing these challenges, Lagerwey commented, “We have taken players away from the team, it’s not as good as it was two months ago. But this is such a cool opportunity now because now we get to do the fun stuff. Now we get to add the players that are going to be here for a long time.”</p>



<p>He reassured fans that the current phase is part of a longer-term strategy. “I get why people are nervous and are like, ‘Lagerwey has no idea,’ but I have done this before and with some decent results.</p>



<p>I would ask for folks to be patient and see how we emerge on the other side of not just this transfer window – I would say probably two to three away from the finished product of where I want to get us – but … we’ve gone through the subtracting part. And now we get to add, and adding parts I can assure you is a lot more fun than subtracting.”</p>

<h4>Biggest movers</h4>



<p>Like most things these days, the price of most Premier League season tickets have gone up. The biggest overall price hikes are in Nottingham, whose cheapest and most expensive tickets have both risen over 20% in price for next season, compared to 2022/23.  Fulham is offering the most expensive premium season ticket in the league, far higher than anyone else. The Cottagers cheap seats also have gone up, with the second highest increase in that category. The club’s entirely new <a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;source=web&amp;cd=&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjXnJvtrKz_AhXHgIQIHUf8AJ4QFnoECA0QAQ&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fulhamfc.com%2Friverside-development%2F&amp;usg=AOvVaw1mQ3IDJdO9FUO7jkPBtrga" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Riverside Stand</a> at Craven Cottage is set to fully open for the upcoming season. Owner Shahid Kahn has spent over £120 million on the redevelopment, and now some of that cost is being passed on to the fans.</p>



<p>Three clubs (Brentford, Chelsea, and Spurs) have kept prices the same for 2023/24 as they were in 2022/23. A few clubs have actually <em>decreased</em> their pricing for season tickets. Surprisingly, this includes three-time reigning champs Manchester City, who offer the cheapest ticket in the league at $279 for the season. It also includes just-promoted Sheffield, who will be charging fans 5-6% less than they paid in the Championship last season.</p>



<h4>Best bang for the supporters’ buck</h4>



<p>When you break it down to cost-per-league-game (19 EPL home games), here’s the five best values:</p>



<figure class="wp-block-table is-style-regular"><table><tbody><tr><td>Club</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">23/24 Season Ticket Price per league game</td></tr><tr><td>Manchester City</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$14.68</td></tr><tr><td>West Ham</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$20.23</td></tr><tr><td>Burnley</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$21.86</td></tr><tr><td>Sheffield United</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$24.83</td></tr><tr><td>Brentford</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$27.35</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<p>But who falls on the more dubious end of the table? Who has the most expensive least-expensive tickets? Here’s where you’d pay the most per Premier League game for a full season of sitting in the “cheap” seats:</p>



<figure class="wp-block-table is-style-regular"><table><tbody><tr><td>Club</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">23/24 Season Ticket Price per league game</td></tr><tr><td>Arsenal</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$63.53</td></tr><tr><td>Spurs</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$52.67</td></tr><tr><td>Liverpool</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$45.62</td></tr><tr><td>Aston Villa</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$39.81</td></tr><tr><td>Chelsea</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$38.83</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<p>There are some big clubs on that list, which you’d likely expect. It’s $63 for the cheapest seat at the Emirates to see Arsenal. And remember, that’s the per game price for an entire season – a single game ticket will run you more. But for fun, let’s look at that table again, but with an added column:</p>



<figure class="wp-block-table is-style-regular"><table><tbody><tr><td>Club</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Premier League titles since 2010</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">23/24 Season Ticket Price per league game</td></tr><tr><td>Arsenal</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$63.53</td></tr><tr><td>Spurs</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$52.67</td></tr><tr><td>Liverpool</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$45.62</td></tr><tr><td>Aston Villa</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$39.81</td></tr><tr><td>Chelsea</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$38.83</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<p>We’ll let you decide whether some of these clubs have earned the high price tag they charge fans for season tickets. </p>



<h4>Comparing to America</h4>



<p>If you live in the US, odds are you won’t be purchasing season tickets for a Premier League club. But you might have season tickets for your local pro sports team. How do those costs stack up to Premier League season ticket prices?<br><br>Here’s sampling of pricing (most recent published pricing used for cheapest available season ticket) and how each league compares (note: since different teams’ season ticket packages may include non-league games, this shows the cost per regular season league game):</p>



<figure class="wp-block-table is-style-regular"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Team</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Number of Regular Season Home Games</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Season Ticket Cost (Total / Per Game)</strong></td></tr><tr><td>Man City (PL)</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">19</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$225 / $14.68</td></tr><tr><td>Indianapolis Colts (NFL)</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">9</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$615 / $68.33</td></tr><tr><td>Miami Marlins (MLB)</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">81</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$517 / $6.38</td></tr><tr><td>Memphis Grizzlies (NBA)</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">41</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$645 / $15.73</td></tr><tr><td>Columbus Blue Jackets (NHL)</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">41</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$1,125 / $27.44</td></tr><tr><td>Philadelphia Union (MLS)</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$600 / $35.30</td></tr><tr><td>Orlando Pride (NWSL)</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">11</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$140 / $12.73</td></tr><tr><td>Tampa Bay Rowdies (USL)</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">$204 / $12</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<p>Of course, just like in the Premier League, season ticket prices can swing wildly on a team-by-team basis across the United States. But this gives you a rough idea of how things can compare. For the major American sports, the cheapest seats are usually the last rows of the upper deck. In soccer, you’re likely getting a spot behind the goal, possibly without a seat (in the US where safe standing is now more common). But in many US venues, supporter sections are general admission and you can often get right in the front row for the lowest price. </p>



<p>Overall, the cost for an entire season in the cheapest seats is in the same ballpark as the “Big 4” US sports leagues. A good chunk of Premier League clubs charge in that same $400-$700 range for their cheapest season ticket. Depending on the sport, you’re getting way more, or less, games for that money though.</p>



<p>Professional soccer in the US in general is a pretty decent value. That being said, the fact that you can get now get season tickets for arguably the greatest soccer club on the planet for a comparable price to an American second division team is absolutely crazy. To be fair, we’re cherry picking numbers a little, but still, it’s wild that that is a true statement.</p>
