Season ticket prices have been announced for the forthcoming season. Below is a fairly simple summary of how it all pans out.
The cheapest adult ticket is in the Ealing Road BIAS stand terrace. Early bird tickets bought before June 30th work out at £299 for the season plus a £15 Bees United membership for each adult – that works out as £13 per match without Bees United
If you don’t want/already have a Bees United membership you can deduct this from the fee before you purchase
New Road Bill Axby adult tickets are £373 – just over £16 per match
Braemar Rd/Bees Utd stand adult tickets works out at £390 – around £17 per match
Seniors get roughly 30% discount on the adult prices pricing them at between around £8.75 and £11.50 per match depending on what stand you are in.
U18s tickets work out at between around £8.75 and £11.50 per match
Student tickets work out at between around £6.50 and £9 per match.
Juniors – around £3 per match.
Golden juniors (10 and under) and golden seniors (85 plus) pay £25 for the season – around £1 per match
Seniors and students season tickets prices include a £5 Bees United fee which can be deducted before you pay if you so request. Juniors (and we assume golden seniors) include £2 fee.
Family ticket – 2 adults and 2 U18s in the New Rd/Bill Axby will cost £750 – just over £16.25 per adult with kids going for free .. although if your kids are 10 years and under, it is cheaper to buy two Ealing Rd season tickets with golden juniors if your kids are prepared to stand (or run around the terrace in ‘crèche corner’)
Every season ticket purchaser gets a £10 voucher to spend on ONLY club shop Adidas gear
These prices rise by around 6% after June 30th
Matchday prices are up £1 on last season ranging on the day from £22 adult for on the Ealing Rd terrace to £24 for Braemar Rd – £2 cheaper if bought in advance.
There will also be a new membership scheme offering an additional £1 off the advanced price (so ranging from £19 to £21). Details to be announced soon.
Many people will be looking out for what advantages the new membership scheme offers over BIAS membership as many people currently sign up to Bees United or BIAS to get priority booking for big-game tickets. It will be interesting to see if season ticket holders still get automatic priority for tickets or whether they now also have to be a member of Bees United and/or BIAS or the new membership scheme to retain their priority.
With the membership offering in effect £3 off the gate price for non season ticket holders, we may get quite a few people making the choice between paying for one or the other unless Bees United also offers similar ‘perks’ OR the membership works out more expensive than the £15/year people pay for Bees Utd.
