The allocation: 10,758 tickets for Villa supporters
Aston Villa have confirmed their UEFA ticket allocation for the Europa League final at Tupras Stadium in Istanbul. A total of 10,758 seats have been made available covering general admission, restricted view, disabled, easy access, and wheelchair areas. All tickets will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis through the UEFA Ticket Portal, with access controlled via unique codes distributed to eligible supporters.
Supporters requiring accessibility tickets should contact the club directly at accessibility@avfc.co.uk. All eligible disabled supporters will also receive a complimentary ticket for a personal assistant, an important and welcome provision for the club’s most loyal European travellers.
Ticket prices. Something for every budget
UEFA have set the following price structure for Villa’s allocation:
| Category | Full View | Restricted View |
|---|---|---|
| Category 1 | €240 | €190 |
| Category 2 | €160 | €125 |
| Category 3 | €65 | €50 |
| Fans First | €40 | N/A |
| Accessibility (Wheelchair & Easy Access) | €40 + companion free | N/A |
The Fans First option at €40 represents outstanding value for a European final — and will be in enormous demand. Category 3 tickets at €65 provide the most accessible general admission option for the majority of supporters planning the trip to Turkey.
