Regardless of whether you are a lifelong West Ham supporter or a first-time visitor, securing tickets to see the Hammers can sometimes be challenging.

That being said , the London Stadium has been littered with empty seats in recent times due to the struggles of the Hammers struggles, especially in the 2025-26 season under Nuno Espirito Santo, with the club relegated to the Championship.

The East London side last competed in the second tier back in the 2011-12 campaign, and it is easy to imagine that the London Stadium might not be at capacity for the majority of next season.

Ahead of 2026-27, this guide provides essential information on prices, memberships and tips for finding affordable West Ham Tickets. Read on for more details about watching matches live at the London Stadium.

West Ham tickets & prices at the London Stadium

West Ham season tickets: Pricing, availability

West Ham have confirmed that season tickets for the 2026-27 can be renewed but the deadline to do so is July 3.

Season ticket prices vary, with some seats significantly more expensive than others.

Prices in Band 6 start at £99 (only for those under the age of 18), but that category can set a customer an extra £310.

Supporters will be charged higher prices for more exclusive options, with the highest Band 1 season ticket priced at £1,200.

Note that you need Claret membership to be on the waiting list for Season tickets.

2026/27 West Ham season ticket prices lowered

West Ham have actually lowered their season ticket prices following their demotion back to the Championship, which follows a season in which prices were frozen.

Across all six bands, adult prices are down by between 10% to 30%, and all renewal prices have been reduced.

Concessionary prices are available in all general admission bands, with those over-66s able to purchase season tickets from £160, which is the lowest price in this category in the Championship.

West Ham season ticket new policy on the cards

While the news of a season ticket freeze is undoubtedly a positive one, the club revealed in talks with the Fan Advisory Board in February that they are now actively monitoring season ticket holders who don't attend matches regularly.

The club have set up a ticket forwarding scheme where season ticket holders can pass their ticket on to friends and family, but frustration is growing with supporters who just leave their seat empty when they don't attend.

Other clubs, such as Man Utd, have a policy in place where if a season ticket holder doesn't either attend a match or forward their ticket to someone else on three separate occasions throughout the season, they become ineligible to renew the following season.

West Ham are said to be considering such a policy themselves ahead of next season.

West Ham matchday tickets and single-match tickets: Pricing, availability

The good news for fans not wanting to spend a fortune is that you can get single-match tickets for West Ham.

For single tickets which are available on ‘General Sale', all that you need to do is create a basic West Ham Account on the ticketing website, which will only take a couple of minutes to complete.

However, single-match tickets for the upcoming Championship season are not yet available, but be sure to keep an eye out.

Do I need a membership to buy West Ham tickets?

As stated above, no membership is required to buy West Ham tickets on general sale, but how often matches go to general sale is another matter altogether. Despite having a stadium with a capacity of more than 60,000, the club do frequently sell out, so logic would tell you that a membership is required for certain matches.  

Anyone can join, and memberships are available for the 2026/27 season.

How to get a West Ham membership

The club Membership scheme is available online.

The full adult price is £45.00 with benefits such as ticketing priority, ticket discounts, a welcome pack and a £10 voucher to use in the club store or online.

Further exclusive perks and member competitions are ongoing throughout the season in what is a similar initiative to that operated by most elite clubs at home and abroad.

West Ham ticket prices at the London Stadium

For Premier League games in the 2025/26 season, the pricing was set according to the category of the fixture.

Single game briefs were available for adults for Category A matches from £45-100, whilst Category C games were purchased for £30-55 with further concessions set for Over-65s, Under-21s and Under-18s as well as fans with accessibility requirements.

Prices for single games for Championship matches are not yet known, but make sure to keep an eye on the club's website for the latest information.

West Ham hospitality tickets 

West Ham offers an extensive range of hospitality options for those who like to enjoy their football in a more refined, comfortable manner.

From private boxes to fine dining, restaurants and sports bars, there will be something for everyone who wants more than a standard seat in the stadium.

Club legends are honoured and celebrated in the themes and decor of the hospitality areas, at prices that you would expect.

The Club London executive box started at around £200-250 per person for a Premier League game in 2025-26, with most of the hospitality offerings sold out on a membership package basis.

West Ham tickets FAQs

How can I get West Ham away tickets?

West Ham away tickets, as with all clubs, are difficult to obtain and are not freely available. Like many clubs, West Ham operates a loyalty points system for away matches, and supporters who have accrued the most points are given priority access.

Generally speaking, a season ticket is also required to buy West Ham away tickets, but some matches are also made available for members.

The number of tickets available depends on the size of the opposition stadium, with Championship regulations stating that away clubs should receive a minimum of 2,000 tickets unless the capacity is less than 20,000, in which case the home club must allocate at least 10% of that figure.

An alternative exists, with ‘touts' on the streets at the stadium in what is effectively a black market, as well as resale sites online. Some of these are more reputable than others; you will often pay well over face value, and you should always be alert for scammers.

How can I get cheap West Ham tickets?

One way to get cheap West Ham tickets is to buy matches for unglamorous Carabao Cup and FA Cup ties against lower-league opposition.

How much will I pay for a London Stadium tour?

How to watch West Ham at home

For those who are unable to obtain West Ham tickets or to travel to East London to see the team live, you can settle for watching West Ham on television at home.

To watch Championship games, you will need a Sky Sports subscription for those Hammers fixtures that are televised. Sky also show Carabao Cup fixtures, while the FA Cup fixtures are always live on BBC and ITV.
