    The labels: ✅ Open sale = ordinary league games reach general sale · 🟡 Rules vary = members go first, some games reach general sale · 💳 Members only = a club card or membership is effectively needed · 🪪 = named tickets. They describe the club's usual league games, not one particular match: derbies and big games can be much harder.

    Only buy from the club or its official partners. Unofficial resale sites charge far more and tickets can be cancelled at the gate. Prices are a guide and change by opponent; the club's site has the real price.

    Want it all sorted?

    Hospitality means a guaranteed seat with food and drink, and it's the legal way to a sure ticket for a big game.

    Charlton: official hospitality from about €139 a person, sold by the club.

    Stadium tours

    No game that weekend? Most big grounds run tours and museum visits most days, including the dressing rooms and the tunnel.
