UEFA confirm ticket allocation for 2026 Super Cup between PSG and Aston Villa
  • UEFA have confirmed the launch of ticket sales for the 2026 Super Cup between PSG and Aston Villa
  • The match takes place on Wednesday 12th August at 20:00 UK time at Stadion Salzburg
  • The stadium has a capacity of 28,500

UEFA has officially launched ticket sales for the 2026 UEFA Super Cup, revealing the allocation given to PSG and Aston Villa. The stadium capacity is 28,500, with half going towards the two clubs and the rest split between the general public and UEFA partners.

Fresh off their historic Europa League triumph in Istanbul, Unai Emery’s side will face Champions League winners PSG on Wednesday, 12th August 2026. The match takes place at the Stadion Salzburg in Austria. This is Villa’s first appearance in the fixture since lifting the trophy in 1982.

Out of a reduced net stadium capacity of 28,500 in Salzburg, UEFA has allocated just 7,000 tickets directly to Aston Villa. PSG receives an identical 7,000 tickets, while 9,000 tickets are reserved for a general public lottery via the UEFA website. The remaining seats are held back for commercial partners.

For a club that easily filled its 10,758-ticket block for the Europa League final, and saw over thousands of supporters travel to Turkey, this 7,000-ticket restriction leaves many loyal Villans on the outside looking in.

Ticket pricing

The general public application window runs until 23rd June. For fans lucky enough to secure a seat, UEFA has set the following tier pricing:

  • Fans First (Club Allocations): €30
  • Category 3: €50
  • Category 2: €90
  • Category 1: €150

Accessibility tickets are also fixed at the €30 “Fans First” rate, which includes a complimentary companion seat.

Villa perspective

The minuscule allocation will spark frustration among Villa supporters. The small ticket pool is a direct result of UEFA’s tradition of using smaller, intimate venues for the Super Cup rather than 50,000+ capacity stadiums.

While this ensures a unique atmosphere inside the Red Bull Arena, it heavily restricts travelling supporters for both clubs, which should ultimately be prioritised instead.

Villa will handle its 7,000-ticket distribution directly. It will be likely that the club will heavily favour season ticket holders and fans who accumulated maximum loyalty points during the recent European campaign.
