A price for away fan tickets in the Premier League has been agreed until 2028.
A Premier League official announcement on Thursday revealing that all 20 clubs have voted unanimously on the issue.
The 2025/26 season is the tenth in a row when a price cap of £30 has been in place, when any fan buys an away ticket for a Premier League match.
At a Premier League meeting today, the 20 clubs unanimously agreed to extend the £30 cap on away ticket prices for a further two seasons.
Which means the initiative will now be extended to at least 12 seasons, to the end of the 2027/28 Premier League season.
An official Premier League statement declaring on Thursday 19 March 2026: ‘Away fans help create the incredible atmosphere Premier League matches are renowned for. Since the cap’s implementation in 2016, it has contributed to attendance at away games increasing from 82 per cent to 91 per cent. The Premier League and clubs also acknowledge the additional costs associated with travelling to follow their teams around the country.’
Whilst this is of course welcome news, a shame that the Premier League clubs can’t also collectively agree a price cap on prices that home fans have to pay for tickets.
Ticket prices seemed to stabilise in relatively recent times, but certainly the last three or four years we have seen pretty much all major Premier League clubs, including Newcastle United, once again raising ticket prices season after season.
