Can I buy match tickets from other websites?
Edited 10 month(s) ago
If you are looking to buy tickets for matches you should buy them directly through Man City at mancity.com/tickets
If you buy tickets from an unauthorised source, whether that be an unauthorised website, an online marketplace or a ticket tout outside the ground, you risk not being given entry to the match and losing the money you paid.
A "ticket tout" (also known as a "scalper") sells match tickets without authorisation, often at vastly inflated prices.
Touts no longer just sell tickets outside the stadium, they also sell them (and aid unauthorised sales by others) on websites and online marketplaces.
Tickets sold by touts are likely to become void and do not give you the right to enter the stadium to watch the match, or can you lead to you being removed from the stadium.
Warning signs
- Heavily-inflated match ticket prices
- Match tickets on sale many months before the date of the match
- Exact location of the seats not confirmed (no stand, row or seat number)
- Large volumes of tickets being on offer for the most high-profile matches
- Being required to collect the tickets from a hotel, or a location that is not the stadium
- Being required to return the tickets after the match
- Statements that the website selling the tickets is not affiliated to the Club, or is unofficial
