Getting Tickets

[DC Gunner]

Hello,

I am not sure if this is the right forum for this question, I have a mate of mine who is going to be visiting London and he was looking to get a Tickets for the match against Chelsea [Dec 27th], what are his options/chances of actually getting one, and how ?

His option is to become a Red Member. At least 1,500 tickets go on sale to Red members each home game. It'll be a mad rush for tickets for that tie though.

Okay -

* Is there a waiting list to become a red member?
* How many tickets can a red member buy?

just sign up on the Arsenal site, under membership. You get a member card, but I think joining this late you no longer get the membership package. Someone else probably knows more.

as for the tickets, everything I've read says 1 member=1 ticket, but i've heard of ways to get multiple. I'm not sure sure though, I was wondering the same thing.

You're going to have to get lucky to get one of those tickets - even considering it's Christmas holidays, everyone I know who can't make it with a season ticket has already found 10 people to buy their seat.

Become a red member, get on the Arsenal site the second they go on sale, and set the box-office to speed dial on your phone. Oh, and keep your fingers crossed, because unless you get a ticket like this, chances are you're going to have to pay quite a lot of money to a tout if you want to go. More than you would if you paid for a red membership, and then full price for a ticket, that's for sure - it works out cheaper in the end.

How much are we looking at, for the big games?

A relative of mine from Sweden tried to get match tickets and was quoted ¢160-180.

I signed in about 3 weeks ago and I received a membership package. I didnt expect that.

Its really good value. I have managed to get tickets for Newcastle via ticket exchange and got away tickets at Everton too(I was sharp once they went on sale!). I dont think the category A matches go on sale for red members. Even the Villa away has sold out before going to red members

I want to go to the same match (going over there from australia). If I'm not a member is there no point bothering to get tickets?

It's too late to buy Chelsea tickets from Arsenal now, the best you can do is try and get one off a tout at the stadium. But that's only if you're really desperate and don't mind getting ripped off. :wink:

I got four tickets to Arsenal - Wigan in January, KingCarmelo, you ought to join the Arsenal Australia Supporters Club, that's how I got them.
