Fan uproar over ‘elitist’ prices for GAA tickets

AN internet campaign is under way to demand the GAA drop its ticket prices amid grumbling from fans over the high price of attending inter-county matches.

Supporters attending tomorrow’s All-Ireland hurling semi-final between Cork and Kilkenny face paying out €45 for a seated ticket or €30 to stand on the terraces. However, family area tickets are just €5 for children.

The GAA has stressed that various cheaper ticket options are available for groups and those who purchase tickets through clubs.
