United fans can look forward to major savings for next season
United’s loyal fans can look forward to major savings as they follow the Blues next season with new and existing Season Ticket holders set to be rewarded handsomely under our new pricing and incentive structure.For the 2017/18 season we are delighted to announce exciting new offers across terracing, seating, junior and family packages.
Terracing
We have introduced a new pricing structure for our terracing Season Tickets. If we reach our target of over 1,000 terracing Season Tickets sold by 26 May 2017 you could enjoy a huge saving of £228 when compared to match day prices!
Terracing Season Ticket savings will be based on a sliding scale of sales – the more fans that buy, the more YOU save! Spread the word and make Brunton Park the place to be next season.
Seating
Season Ticket holders who watch the games from the seated areas of the stadium, and who renew within the Early Renewal period, will once again benefit from a fantastic six-game saving - equivalent to a maximum saving of £182 when compared to match day prices.
And, as a new added bonus for our seated Season Ticket Holders, they will receive an extra one-game saving should our target of 1,200 Adult and Senior seated Season Tickets be reached by 26 May 2017.
Junior and Family
Catering for our fans of the future, new seating categories for Juniors include Family Junior and Family Zone Junior [Pioneer Foodservice Stand only], where 11 to 17-year-olds can secure Season Tickets for just £89 and £79 respectively. Under-11* Season Tickets for seated areas remain at £10 with under-7s gaining free entry in all areas of the ground.
Prices have also been slashed by a huge £51 for our 11 to 17-year-old Junior fans in seated areas, to just £99. For 18 to 22-year olds in our ‘Young Person’ category, they will save £125 compared to last season with their seated Season Ticket prices dropped to a fantastic price of just £149.
Wheelchair users who watch from the Pioneer Foodservice Stand have had their prices reduced by £34, to £50, with disabled prices standardised across all areas of the stadium.
“Get Brunton Park buzzing!”
Chief Executive Nigel Clibbens said: “We’re determined to listen to our fans and, where possible, respond positively to what they say. We don’t take loyalty for granted – and we want to get Brunton Park buzzing. There have been a number of games this season with a fantastic atmosphere – we want that every week.
“We’ve taken feedback on board and we think we now have a Season Ticket pricing structure to benefit everyone. Fans in the seated areas are catered for with a saving of at least equivalent to last season, and those adults who prefer to stand on the terraces can potentially attend all 23 league games for only £209.
“This is something the club has never done before but we’re confident that the fans will respond and come out in numbers to support their team. The sliding scale of savings aims to encourage supporters to get behind the scheme, and the reduced prices across other categories, particularly Juniors and Young Persons, show our commitment to helping to build a solid base of fans of the future.”
Ticket office manager Tarn Simmons said: “We feel this new pricing structure will attract new fans and younger supporters to games. Our Season Ticket Holders in the seated areas will once again benefit from a six-game saving at the very least, which I know they appreciated last season, and the potential savings for Season Ticket holders in the terraced areas are unlike anything we have ever done before.
“We are very excited about this and we hope those fans who haven’t had Season Tickets before will respond by taking advantage of these fantastic offers. The more people who purchase Season Tickets for the terraced areas, the cheaper it gets, so we’re hoping people spread the word and get behind the Blues next season.”
Please note – Flexi-Card holders can upgrade to a Season Ticket during the Renewal and Early Buy period [12 April to 26 May] as a reward for your support through the current campaign.
