Chelsea tickets 2026/27

Choose a membership

Four memberships can apply for match tickets: True Blue+ (£80 a season), True Blue (£60), CFC Blue (£45) and Junior Blue (£35). True Blue and Junior Blue members apply for the first allocation, while some tickets are ring-fenced for CFC Blue members. The £15 Ticket Forwarding Membership is not one of the four: it exists so that another member can pass a ticket on to you. Our Chelsea membership guide compares the options.

Apply in the window for each match

Every men's home game has its own application window. Applying on the first day does not improve your chances; tickets are allocated one per person, with up to four on one application, and you hear whether you were successful within four working days.

Missed out? The ticket exchange

Unsuccessful applicants then get a priority period on the official exchange, where season ticket holders and True Blue+, True Blue and CFC Blue members list tickets they cannot use; after that it opens to all members. It closes three hours before kick-off, and exchange purchases are non-refundable. For Leeds, the exchange dates were still to be confirmed in late October. The Chelsea ticket exchange guide goes through it step by step.

Match categories and prices

Each game is placed in a category, from AA down to G, given in its ticket news article; Leeds and Crystal Palace are Category A. Adult member prices for 2026/27 start at £27 in Categories AA, A and B for a restricted-view seat, or at £52, £48 and £43 for the lowest unrestricted view. The lower categories go down to £14 in Category G. If a general sale does happen, every category costs £5 more than the member price.

General sale and hospitality

General sales are rare at Stamford Bridge, so membership is the realistic starting point for a men's home game. Matchday hospitality is sold by the club under the Club Chelsea name.

Three visits lead Chelsea's home season on the resale market: Arsenal in March, Liverpool in December and Manchester City in April, with Chelsea v Arsenal tickets at the very top. The two May fixtures, against Everton and Brentford, form a second group.

Most of the league programme then sits close together: Fulham, Aston Villa, Newcastle, Sunderland, Nottingham Forest, Ipswich and Leeds. Coventry and Crystal Palace are the lowest starting points on the list so far.

Within a match, listings usually start in the upper tier behind a goal ("Shortside Upper Tier" on Hellotickets), with the upper tier along the touchline close behind. Lower-tier seats come next, and named areas such as Westview and the West Stand sit near the top, alongside hospitality, which is listed separately. Home and away fans share the Shed End, so check that a Shed End listing is not in the away section if you want to sit with Chelsea supporters.

Sellers set their own prices, which are usually far above the member price, and the final price is shown before you pay.

Stamford Bridge, on Fulham Road in SW6, opened on 28 April 1877 and has been Chelsea's home since 1905; it is also the main home of Chelsea Women. It holds 40,044, all seated, in four stands:

• Matthew Harding Stand, behind the north goal: two tiers and home to many of Chelsea's most vocal supporters, with rail seating in the lower tier.
• Shed End (South Stand), behind the south goal on the Fulham Road side: two tiers with rail seating, shared by home fans and the away section.
• East Stand, along the east touchline: three tiers, the oldest part of the ground (1974), with the tunnel, dugouts and dressing rooms.
• West Stand, the largest at about 13,500 seats: lower, middle and upper tiers, executive boxes and hospitality suites.

Fulham Broadway, on the District line, is the nearest station and has lift access; if you change at Earl's Court, take a Wimbledon-bound train. West Brompton and Imperial Wharf on the London Overground are about 15 minutes' walk, buses 14, 211 and 414 stop on Fulham Road, and Fulham Road itself closes to traffic from 90 minutes before kick-off.

Home supporters enter with digital tickets on the Chelsea Official App. Turnstiles open two hours before weekend kick-offs and 90 minutes before evening games, there is no entry after the 60th minute, and the ground is cashless. Bags must be no larger than A4 (30cm x 20cm x 10cm) and there is no storage at the stadium, though an independent bag drop operates at Fulham Broadway Shopping Centre. The Stamford Bridge seating plan shows every block.

Visiting supporters sit in the Shed End, which they share with home fans; the club's access guide refers to the Shed End away seating area, with the Shed Upper lift inside it. Visiting clubs have described their allocation as the lower tier, or the lower and upper tiers. For a league game it is about 3,000, and away fans can take the whole stand for domestic cup ties.

Pubs around the ground do not admit away fans, and the club points visiting supporters to Earl's Court, about 25-30 minutes' walk away.
