The 2025 FA Cup final between Crystal Palace and Man City is set to take place on Saturday, 17 May, and with the kick-off time now confirmed, the race for tickets is on among the supporters of both clubs.
The match is perhaps seen as a bigger occasion for Crystal Palace, who are playing in just their third FA Cup final in history, making it a potentially once-in-a-lifetime occasion for Eagles fans.
For Man City, it's their third FA Cup final in as many years, with the club looking for retribution after losing last year's final to Manchester United at Wembley Stadium.
If you are looking for FA Cup final tickets, then you're in the right place. Our guide below has all the information you need.

I can’t remember the price in 1990 Final or Replay
Or 2016 Final. 🤷♂️

Hospitality
For fans with deep pockets who want to enjoy the FA Cup final in style, Wembley hospitality is an option. Hospitality at Wembley does work a little differently from most stadiums as the purchase of a hospitality ticket for the final also grants supporters a Club Wembley Membership.
A Club Wembley Membership automatically provides holders with access to hospitality lounges for other big events at Wembley, such as concerts and the EFL playoffs.
Wembley hospitality prices:
- Inner Circle – £2,640
- Centre Circle – £5,046
- Number Nine – £6,342
- Bobby Moore – £9,030
- One Twenty – £13,002
- Private box – Enquire on Wembley website
FA Cup final tickets: Alternative options
If you don't have a Man City or Crystal Palace season ticket, then the chances of you getting tickets directly through either club are slim.
If this is the case, then your only other option is to turn to third-party resale websites, but these don't come without risk. For starters, scammers are always active on some of these sites, particularly for big matches, so be vigilant at all times.
Secondly, you are going to have to pay over the odds for a ticket through these kinds of websites due to the demand. We recently reviewed two of the biggest to see if they are as legit as they make out:
