Everton have announced full details of their Seat Move process for the 2026-27 campaign, giving renewed season ticket holders the opportunity to explore alternative locations inside the Hill Dickinson Stadium ahead of the new season.
The process will officially begin at 10am on Monday 1 June and will operate through a series of phased priority windows based on when supporters renewed their season tickets.
The club confirmed that all eligible supporters will receive direct communication explaining when their individual window opens and how to access the online system.
The move comes after Everton completed their first full season at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, a campaign that provided fans with their first opportunity to experience regular Premier League football at the club's new waterfront home.
How does Everton's Seat Move process work?
Everton have divided the process into three separate priority windows. Supporters who renewed their season tickets between 10 April and 22 April will receive first access from 1 June, while those who renewed between 23 April and 6 May will gain access from 8 June.
Fans who renewed between 7 May and the final renewal deadline of 20 May will enter the process from 15 June.
The Seat Move window will remain open until 4pm on Friday 19 June, after which no further relocations will be permitted.
Importantly, supporters satisfied with their current location do not need to take any action, with their seats already secured for the 2026-27 season.
For those considering a change, the system will allow fans to browse available seats throughout the stadium and complete a move online.
Everton have also confirmed supporters can move seats multiple times during their allocated window if they wish to compare different options.
However, once a move is completed, the previous seat is immediately released back into the available inventory for other supporters to select.

Why are Everton offering supporters the chance to move?
The club say feedback from supporters during the first season at Hill Dickinson Stadium has been largely positive, with the overwhelming majority of fans choosing to renew for next season.
Recent figures showed more than 97% of Everton's 32,347 season ticket holders renewed their seats for the 2026-27 campaign, highlighting strong demand despite ticket price increases and ongoing concerns surrounding transport links and scheduling.
Nevertheless, Everton recognise that some supporters may wish to relocate based on personal preferences.
Factors such as atmosphere, accessibility requirements, concourse facilities and the desire to sit closer to family and friends have all been cited by the club as potential reasons for requesting a move.
The process could prove particularly popular among supporters who spent the opening season assessing different sections of the stadium before committing to a long-term location.
FGG says: Everton are learning from year one
Moving from Goodison Park to a brand-new stadium was always going to be a learning experience for both Everton and their supporters. While the remarkably high renewal rate suggests most fans are happy with their matchday experience, offering a structured Seat Move process is a sensible step.
Rather than locking supporters into seats chosen before they had experienced the stadium properly, Everton are giving fans flexibility. In a stadium expected to remain in huge demand, that feels like a practical and supporter-friendly decision.
