Arsenal pre-season tour: How to get tickets

It may only seem like a couple of weeks ago that the Premier League season finished, but all 20 Premier League teams are now in the midst of their pre-season preparations, including last season's runners-up, Arsenal.

The Gunners are currently in Asia, where they are building up fitness and familiarity ahead of the new campaign in front of some of their overseas supporters. Mikel Arteta's men have completed the Singapore leg of their tour and are now en route to Hong Kong to play their final match in Asia before heading back home.

If you want to buy Arsenal pre-season tour tickets, then our guide below has you covered.

Arsenal pre-season tour tickets: Buy guide

Arsenal tickets in Singapore

Arenal's first two matches of pre-season took place in Singapore. They faced AC Milan on 23 July and Newcastle on 27 July, with both matches played at the Singapore National Stadium.

The Gunners went two from two across these matches, recording a 1-0 win over AC Milan before beating Newcastle 3-2 in an all-Premier League clash. Neither of the two matches were played in front of a sell-out crowd, with the match against AC Milan only drawing in 22,000 supporters.

One possible explanation for these low attendances was the ticket prices. Fans were being charged the following prices to attend either of the two games:

  • Diamond – $298
  • Platinum – $254
  • Gold- $204
  • Silver – $152
  • Bronze – $112

Arsenal tickets in Hong Kong

Arsenal's third and final match on their pre-season tour of Asia is against Tottenham in Hong Kong. The match marks the first time that a North London Derby has been played outside of the United Kingdom, and it will take place on 31 July at the Kai Tak Stadium.

Both Arsenal and Tottenham have large overseas fanbases, and the magnitude of the fixture has already drawn in the crowds. At the time of writing, the match is fully sold out, and no tickets have been re-released on resale.

Third-party resale platforms

If you are desperate to attend the match against Tottenham in Hong Kong, then all hope isn't lost. Fans should check reputable third-party ticket resale platforms to see if any tickets have been listed.

As some of these websites pose a risk in terms of scamming, we would always urge fans to exercise caution and do research before purchasing. There should also be an acceptance that you will be paying more than face value for tickets.
