Shakhtar Donetsk tickets 2026/27

Shakhtar's shop, Chelsea's checkout

Start at tickets.shakhtar.com. The sale belongs to Shakhtar, but the basket hands over to Chelsea FC's eticketing platform, eticketing.co.uk/chelseafc, to complete the purchase. Shakhtar post sale dates in the tickets section of their news pages, so check there before each release.

Packages come first

The season opened with packages. Chelsea season ticket holders, Chelsea members and Ukrainian fans had priority from 21 August, and the general sale followed from 24 August. A three-match package for Sporting CP, Fenerbahce and Real Madrid was still on sale on 15 October, priced from £164.

Single tickets, one game at a time

Single-match tickets are released later, game by game: on 17 September for AEK Athens and on 15 October for Sporting CP. They started at £42, with dynamic pricing, so the price moves with demand, and age discounts of 25% to 50%. Shakhtar publish no A, B or C match categories. For Shakhtar Donetsk v Fenerbahce tickets and the Real Madrid game, no single-match release had been announced, so the package was the only club route to those two matches at the last check.

VIP hospitality

Shakhtar sell VIP hospitality themselves, from £250 per match, through the same ticket shop.

Sitting with Shakhtar fans

The club asks its own supporters to sit in sections ML8 and ML9. If you want to be among them, look for those sections when you choose your seats. The other league-phase games, at other grounds, are on our Champions League tickets page.

On the resale market, the opponent sets the level. The visit of Real Madrid in January sits clearly above Fenerbahce in November, and both start well above the single-match prices Shakhtar charged for earlier games. When the club releases single tickets for a match, that is the price to compare first.

Within a game, listings tend to open in the upper tiers, either behind a goal ("Shortside Upper Tier" on Hellotickets, the top of the Matthew Harding Stand or the Shed End) or along the touchline ("Longside", the East or West Stand). The lower tier along the touchline, above all near halfway ("Central"), sits at the top of the range. Hospitality packages and, for some games, seats in the visitors' section are listed apart.

Sellers set their own prices, which can be above face value, and the final price is shown before you pay. Hellotickets says: "Every ticket is authenticated. If there's ever an issue, you're protected by our refund policy."

Stamford Bridge stands on Fulham Road, London SW6. Its capacity is 40,044 in the Premier League data feed, approximately 40,000 by Chelsea's own count, spread over four stands:

• Matthew Harding Stand, behind the north goal: two tiers, with rail seating in the lower tier. At Chelsea games it holds the most vocal home support.
• 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 at Chelsea games.
• East Stand, along the east touchline: three tiers, the oldest part of the ground, with the tunnel and dugouts.
• West Stand, along the west touchline: the largest, about 13,500 seats over three tiers, plus 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's Mildmay line, are each about a 15-minute walk, and buses 14, 211 and 414 stop on Fulham Road, which closes to traffic 90 minutes before kick-off.

Chelsea's rules for the ground: it is cashless, bags larger than A4 (30cm x 20cm x 10cm) are refused, there is no bag storage, and there is no re-admittance or entry after the 60th minute. Our Stamford Bridge seating plan maps every block.

Shakhtar have not published a section for visiting supporters at their Stamford Bridge games. At Chelsea's own matches the away fans are placed in the Shed End, which they share with home supporters, so a Shed End seat on its own does not prove an away-end ticket for a Shakhtar match. Fenerbahce or Real Madrid fans should wait for their own club's allocation details.

Shakhtar's supporters, for their part, are directed to sections ML8 and ML9. Whoever you support, check the block on any listing before you pay.
