FAI cuts Aviva ticket prices

The FAI has reduced the price of its single-match and bundled tickets in the Aviva stadium, and says it has been able to do so thanks to a decision by UEFA to centralise television rights from 2014.

Single-match ticket prices are to be reduced by 13%. Adult season tickets will provide seven matches for €189 in Category B and €270 in Category A, a 13% discount on single-match ticket prices announced earlier this year and up to 30% compared to 2010 general admission ticket prices.

FAI CEO John Delaney said: “The UEFA agreement to centralise television rights from 2014 has given us the ability to reduce ticket prices in the general admission and Vantage areas while remaining on target to repay our commitments to Aviva Stadium in full by 2020."

The FAI also announced today that it would make up to €100,000 available to clubs in Clare to mark the county’s hosting of the 2011 FAI Annual General Meeting when it is held for the first time in the West County Hotel, Ennis, on July 16.
