Ireland fans urged to join waiting list for Euro 16 tickets

The FAI are asking supporters who failed to get tickets for Euro 2016 to contact them if they want to be included on a waiting list.

The association has advised that “applicants who received notifications from Uefa that they were unsuccessful and wish to be added to the official waiting list should forward their notification email from Uefa to [e-mail] along with their FAI account number and details of the tickets that they applied for.”

The FAI has 2,000 tickets in reserve, which they say will be distributed to the “most deserving” supporters. They have also reminded fans that a resale platform, run by Uefa, will open in March.

“Supporters can still avail of the re-sale platform, which will open in March and will be run directly by Uefa,” said the FAI statement.

“Only registered members of the ticketing portal who attained tickets from the 2015 public portal (June 10 — July 10) are eligible to sell tickets.

“However, anyone can have access to the re-sale portal once the tickets become available.

“The FAI has made it a priority to free up more tickets for supporters and will remain in contact with UEFA over the coming days and weeks to secure as many tickets as possible for Ireland supporters.”
