Town Cut Matchday Ticket Prices - Ipswich Town News
Town have announced a cut in matchday prices ahead of the 2017/18 campaign with the cheapest adult seat down to £25 from last season’s £27.50.
As previously reported, the club has also scrapped the surcharge for those paying on the gate on the day, which was £2.50 for adults and £1 for juniors last season.
The cost of senior citizens’ tickets is down to £18, while there is an under-23s matchday price for the first time, as is the case with season tickets for next season.
An under-23 ticket will cost £15 and an under-19 seat will be £8. Last season an under-20s ticket was priced at £18 and an under-16s seat £11.50.
A ticket for an under-12 supporter in the family area will cost £3, compared with £8.50 in 2016/17.
TWTD revealed in April that Town’s season ticket sales had dipped below 10,000 for the first time since the late 1990s - which equates to a reduction in income of around £1 million - down from last year’s final total of around 12,200 and a 15 per cent drop on the same point last summer.
Speaking to Life’s a Pitch in April, MD Ian Milne said the club were planning to introduce more flexible ticketing arrangements along the lines of the the Pick6 and Pick12 bundles launched last season and we understand Town will be releasing further details in due course.
