Manchester City's dominance on the field, with their Treble-winning season in 2023 and their fourth consecutive Premier League title in 2024, has seen increasing demand for tickets at the Etihad to see star names like Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne.
Pep Guardiola's side is the team that everyone wants to watch these days, and for good reason. They rarely disappoint, scoring plenty of goals and entertaining. As a result, it seems harder to get a ticket for a game, whether that be for a Premier League match, a Champions League match, or one of the Cup competitions that the Citizens take part in.
Here is how to get Man City tickets at the Etihad Stadium.

How to get Man City tickets
If it is your first time booking Man City tickets, note that the Citizens have a unique pricing strategy that allows booking tickets for both home and away matches. Most importantly, you can book Man City tickets in three ways, as outlined below.
General tickets
General tickets – for a standard seat at the Etihad for any matchday – regularly sell out at the Etihad, and from the 2023/24 season, Manchester City have begun selling these for the full season well in advance.
Ahead of the 2024/25 campaign, the Sky Blues released tickets to their members for Premier League games for the entire season, many of which have already been purchased.
This leaves fans looking to buy tickets less far in advance in a bit of a pickle.
First of all, matches like the Manchester Derby or against Liverpool and Arsenal will be particularly hard to acquire. You're likely to pay a premium on resale sites like SeatPick.
Second, you'll be much more likely to acquire tickets for games in the Carabao Cup, the FA Cup and even the UEFA Champions League. The Etihad does not always sell out, and for later-notice, mid-week games, you could well find an easy route for a ticket on the official club website.
Still, get on to the website as soon as fixtures are announced for your best chance.

Becoming a Manchester City member gives you the best chance of getting tickets. You'll receive a text or email alert when tickets go on general sale.
‘Bar' ticket
These tickets are a little easier to get but more expensive. The exact price depends on who Manchester City is playing. For example, for the game against Aston Villa on April 26, 2025, the fee will start from £280. whereas, against Tottenham in November, Bar tickets start from £300.
But what do you get when paying the premium for a ‘Bar' ticket?
- Match ticket
- Access to premium food and drinks
- Relaxed atmosphere
- Padded seats
It's up to you if that's worth it or not.
Hospitality
For fans who want to have a unique and memorable experience at Etihad Stadium, hospitality tickets are for you. However, these offers are often pricey, so be ready to spend even ten times more than the regular tickets. The fact that Etihad hospitality tickets cater for all the packages you will enjoy from the VIP area also means the prices differ.
With that, always go through the available packages at Etihad before setting on the most ideal offer. These could range from watching Man City matches at the premier sports bar to fine dining at the club restaurant to enjoying an executive treat in VIP lounges.
Note that on the Manchester City official website, hospitality reservations at the Etihad Stadium can be made match-by-match. Moreover, prices may vary depending on the competition for which you are booking a VIP treatment. For example, European competitions such as the UEFA Champions would set you back more than VIP tickets for Premier League matches.
One key benefit is that these tickets are available for nearly every game, so if you wish to watch the game in style, you can. Here is exactly what you get for a ‘Hospitality' ticket.
- Match Ticket
- Premium padded & heated seats
- Fine dining
- Luxury surroundings

Manchester City Women's Tickets
The increasingly popular Women's Super League has more readily available tickets at a cheaper price than the men's games.
Manchester City Women's games are played at the Academy Stadium, a smaller venue in the shadow of the Etihad. It's still a great place to watch football.
There are mainly two types of Manchester City Women's tickets. You can buy Manchester Women's tickets on a match-by-match basis and from as low as £10. Matchgoers are allowed to purchase up to six tickets, but it is recommended that you assign each to the attending fan to help them build a ticketing history with the club. This is because some Manchester City Women's tickets will be sold based on a loyalty point system, so the more you have purchased, the better.
However, if you wish to spend a little more and get some luxury treatment, go for the Manchester City Women's hospitality tickets. Fill in the form on the hospitality booking page to send an email requesting a pricing quote. Some notable benefits that come with watching Manchester City Women's matches as a hospitality ticket holder include:
- Pre-match hospitality in the City Football Academy
- Three-course meal
- Selective drinks package (beer, wine, soft drinks)
- Padded seat on the halfway line
