Town have announced an increase in season ticket prices for the 2016/17 campaign, the third rise in three years.
If purchased before the early bird deadline of midday on April 11th, a lower tier seat going up from this year’s price of £411 to £417. Last year most prices rose by three per cent.
Overall, 97 per cent of season ticket holders will pay around 1.5 per cent more for their seats with fans in X Block, Y Block and D Block facing a larger increase.
As previously, any supporter purchasing a season ticket before the early bird deadline won’t pay any more for their seat if Town are promoted to the Premier League for the 2016/17 campaign, while season ticket holders will get a free Premier League season ticket for 2017/18 if the Blues have gone up by then and they are an Academy Friend - £10 per month - for both 2016/17 and 2017/18.
The Blues are again running their 12-month zero per cent interest direct debit payment scheme.
Meanwhile, Town have scrapped the grading of matchday tickets with adult prices set at £27.50 for lower tiers for all home league matches if tickets are purchased in advance.
The club are continuing with their under-11 season ticket priced at £10 for a ninth season, while season ticket holders are set benefit from a new link-up with local and national companies providing discounts on goods and services.
"Attracting youngsters to come to Portman Road and watch Ipswich Town play remains one of our priorities and we have seen an increase in both our Junior Blues membership and those under-11s and under-16s attending games,” Blues managing director Ian Milne told the club site.
"We are continually looking to increase our matchday activities for families in the Co-op Stand and the feedback from supporters for this initiative has been very positive.
"We have retained the £10 season ticket for under-11s and while there is a small increase for adult season tickets, in line with the retail price index, we feel at just over £18 a game, it represents a competitive price.
"We have listened to supporters who wanted us to simplify our matchday pricing and acted on that. We have been trialing one price this season and it will be implemented for 2016/17 with the price falling in line with what supporters have being paying this year.”
