Crystal Palace Membership: Everything You Need to Know in 2026

Written by Liran Froind

With one of the league’s best atmospheres, a fanbase that keeps Selhurst Park bouncing, and demand for tickets as high as ever, there are plenty of reasons to look closely at Crystal Palace Membership. 

Palace’s membership offer is split between standard memberships, Gold tiers and International Membership, each offering slightly different access to matches at Selhurst Park.

Season tickets sell out every year, so for most non-holders, membership is the main way in if you want to buy directly from the club. 

So read on and we’ll explain the club’s membership system, and what you can do if you can’t find a seat on the primary market.

Our Guide to Crystal Palace Membership

Despite some recent ups and downs, has there ever been a better time to be a Palace fan? SE25 still feels like the place to be, and while Selhurst Park is not one of the largest grounds in the Premier League, it remains one of the loudest. 

With a Crystal Palace Membership you can keep up to date with the Eagles, and you will stand a better chance of buying CPFC tickets through official channels. 

In this article we’ll cover Palace Membership from every angle, and we’ll also talk you through the alternatives, including Ticket Resale and the secondary market.

Crystal Palace Membership Levels

CPFC still offers a variety of membership packages depending on your age, where you live, and how much priority access you want. 

The biggest divide is between standard memberships, which mainly unlock regular home-ticket access, and Gold-style products, which are the meaningful upgrade if you want the 72-hour priority window and away-ballot access.

Crystal Palace Gold Membership

Costing $81, Gold Membership remains the top adult membership tier and is still the most useful Palace product if your priority is ticket access. 

The headline benefit is a 72-hour priority window for home Premier League tickets, and the club also includes away-ticket ballot access, Palace TV+, a 10% Club Shop discount, digital matchday programmes, competitions, and a welcome pack. 

Gold Members receive 250 Loyalty Points, while the welcome pack includes a premium box, A5 notebook, pen and keyring.

So let’s break it down with a summary of what you get with a CPFC Gold Membership:

  • 72-hour priority access to home Premier League tickets
  • Access to the ballot for Crystal Palace away tickets
  • A Palace TV+ subscription
  • 10% off in the Crystal Palace Club Shop
  • Digital matchday programmes
  • Entry into competitions and member offers
  • 250 CPFC Loyalty Points
  • A welcome pack

Crystal Palace Adult Membership

At $34, the basic domestic membership is still the no-frills way to back Palace through official channels. 

This is an entry-level membership for standard home-ticket access rather than a priority product, with access to buy listed seats through the official Crystal Palace Ticket Exchange platform.

The main benefits are:

  • Standard access to Premier League home tickets, subject to availability
  • Access to buy listed seats through Ticket Resale (Ticket Exchange)
  • 100 CPFC Loyalty Points
  • Access to member events and selected club offers

Crystal Palace International Membership

International Membership now comes in two versions: $47 for a digital membership or $61 with a welcome pack. It includes Palace TV+, digital matchday programmes, competitions, and free international shipping on Club Shop orders over $135. 

The special ticketing perk is an exclusive reservation window for up to two tickets for one home match of your choice before wider on-sale. 

International Members receive a handy 200 Loyalty Points

Here’s a summary of what a Crystal Palace International Membership gives you:

  • A Palace TV+ subscription
  • Digital matchday programmes
  • Entry into competitions
  • Free international shipping on Club Shop orders over $135
  • Access to the International reservation scheme for one chosen match, although the quota is limited
  • 200 Crystal Palace Loyalty Points

Junior Eagles Gold Membership

Junior Gold now costs $81 and the main features are:

  • 72-hour priority ticket access for home Premier League games
  • Access to the away-ticket ballot
  • A Palace TV+ subscription
  • A 25/26 junior shirt voucher
  • Invites to private member events
  • A welcome pack
  • 250 Loyalty Points
  • 10% off in the Club Shop

As with all junior products, the exact contents of the welcome pack can vary from season to season.

Junior Eagles Membership

Priced at $34 a season, Junior Membership is the equivalent of the basic Adult Membership, but with youth-focused extras. 

It includes standard access to Premier League home tickets, invites to member-only events, and 10% off in the Club Shop or on Stadium Tours. Junior Members receive 100 Loyalty Points. 

The welcome pack is age-banded: 

For ages 10 and over it includes a cross-body bag, phone stand, lanyard, posters and stickers, while under-10s receive a boot bag, mini football, wristbands, posters and stickers.

The main thing to notice is that the standard memberships are useful for access, but Gold, Junior Gold and Season Ticket+ are the products that materially improve your chances when demand is high.

Palace TV+ Membership

As mentioned, subscriptions to Palace TV+ are included in Gold, Junior Gold, International Membership and Season Ticket+. 

You can also buy it as a standalone subscription. Current pricing is $51 annually, $7 monthly, or $5 weekly, and all three are recurring unless cancelled.

A few Palace TV+ benefits include:

  • Live broadcasts of selected pre-season games
  • Selected Academy match coverage
  • Live audio commentary of first-team competitive matches
  • The manager’s pre-match press conference
  • Extended highlights and 90-minute replays of Premier League matches
  • Documentary and behind-the-scenes content, including When Eagles Dare

What it does not include is live Premier League video coverage, so it is best thought of as a club streaming product rather than a substitute for full live-match TV rights.

Crystal Palace Season Ticket

Crystal Palace Season Tickets sell out every year. The waiting list is still the formal route if you want to join the queue, and it costs $14 to sign up. That fee is deducted from the price of your season ticket if you later secure one through the list.

Of course, the main benefit of a Crystal Palace Season Ticket is a guaranteed seat at every home league game. 

You also receive 500 Loyalty Points, and Palace continues to run a 10-month direct-debit option for season-ticket payments, with two payment-date choices: the 1st or the 15th of each month.

Crystal Palace Season Tickets are still fairly competitive by London Premier League standards, but prices continue to creep up. 

For 2025/26, early-bird adult season tickets started from $811 in the Holmesdale Lower and Whitehorse Lane, $906 in the Arthur Wait, $940 in the Holmesdale Upper, and $1,048 in the Main Stand. 

Concessions started from $547, juniors from $419, and under-10 season tickets from $149.

Crystal Palace Season Ticket+

Pay an additional $68 on top of the price of a standard Palace Season Ticket, and you get a package that is surely the strongest add-on in Palace’s ticket access ladder. 

Season Ticket+ includes:

  • A priority seat-move window
  • 72-hour exclusive access to buy additional home tickets
  • The right to transfer your season ticket to any supporter, 
  • A Palace TV+ subscription
  • 10% off the Club Shop
  • 250 extra Loyalty Points on top of the 500 that come with a season ticket
  • No transaction fees on ticket orders
  • A welcome pack
  • A special digital season-ticket design. 

(Junior Season Ticket+ holders also get a shirt voucher.)

For existing season-ticket holders, this is probably the single most useful upgrade Palace offers because it improves flexibility as well as access.

Buying Crystal Palace Tickets with a Membership

If you’re using the official Crystal Palace Ticket Hub, tickets for most home matches are only available to supporters with a Season Ticket, Season Ticket+, or Membership. 

As shown above, it is much easier to get into the early phases if you have Gold Membership, Junior Gold Membership, or Season Ticket+, because those are the products that come with the 72-hour priority window.

One important change is that Ticket Resale (Ticket Exchange) now plays a much bigger role. 

Members and season-ticket holders can buy resale seats through the normal purchase journey, which gives standard members another route into high-demand fixtures when original allocations disappear quickly.

Palace also now uses zone-based 2025/26 home-pricing rather than the simpler old stand-based framing. Current single-match prices are:

  • Category A: Adults $85 to $108, concessions $61 to $81, juniors $47 to $57
  • Category B: Adults $76 to $92, concessions $51 to $70, under-18s $41 to $51
  • Category C: Adults $62 to $74, concessions $43 to $59, under-18s $30 to $38

As per the Premier League’s pricing caps, away fans at Selhurst Park are listed separately on the same pricing sheet at $41 adult , $30 concession, and $24 junior.

What is the Crystal Palace Ticket Sharing Scheme?

Palace now treats Ticket Sharing and Ticket Resale as two separate mechanisms.

Standard season-ticket holders can share their ticket, match by match, only with another member or season-ticket holder, and they can do this online or in the app free of charge. 

If a physical or box-office-issued digital ticket is needed, the club says there is a $14 admin fee per ticket unless the holder has Season Ticket+.

As mentioned above, Season Ticket+ holders have broader rights. They can transfer their ticket to any supporter, and the club’s current guidance says they only need the recipient’s name and email address.

What Are Crystal Palace Loyalty Points?

Because away allocations are often tiny and Palace’s travelling support is so strong, Loyalty Points remain the main way the club rations high-demand away and some cup tickets. Palace still uses the scheme to reward repeat attendance and spending.

As we’ve seen, you can earn points through memberships and season tickets:

  • Season Ticket: 500 points
  • Season Ticket+: 500 points and 250 extra points
  • Gold Membership: 250 points
  • Junior Gold Membership: 250 points
  • International Membership: 200 points
  • Adult Membership: 100 points
  • Junior Membership: 100 points

The main ongoing earning rates currently are:

  • Home-game tickets: 20 points
  • One point per $1 spent in the Club Shop, kiosks, or online, excluding tickets and memberships
  • Away-ticket points vary by fixture, with certain high-demand away games currently worth 20 points and other away or cup fixtures confirmed after the match is played

Palace now varies cut-offs heavily by fixture. 

A recent official notice for Liverpool and Bournemouth away showed phases ranging from 13,000+, 11,000+, 9,000+, 7,000+, 5,000+, and 3,000+ Loyalty Points for Bournemouth, while Liverpool had a shorter ladder and then separate later phases for Season Ticket+ holders and for members or season-ticket holders with no Loyalty Point requirement.

So yes, it is still difficult to get hold of Crystal Palace away tickets if you are a newer fan, but Season Ticket+, Gold and Junior Gold can improve your position in different ways.

What is the Palace Away Ticket Ballot?

To give some members a better chance of seeing Palace away from home, the club still reserves a small number of away tickets for a ballot. 

This is available to Gold Members and Junior Gold Members, with successful applicants chosen at random regardless of Loyalty Points. 

Will a Crystal Palace Membership Guarantee Me a Ticket?

The answer is still no, not exactly.

Palace’s own FAQs make clear that tickets are in high demand and that memberships do not guarantee success. Membership is best understood as an access product rather than a guarantee: it gets you into the sales process, but demand, sales phases, and availability still decide the outcome. Gold and Junior Gold simply give you a better chance because they come with that 72-hour priority window.

A lot of Palace supporters see it the same way in practice:

So to sum up, Standard membership helps, Gold helps more, but neither removes the scramble entirely for the biggest fixtures.

How Many Tickets Can I Buy with a Crystal Palace Membership?

Rather than sticking to a fixed rule by match category, the number of tickets you can buy varies by fixture and sales phase.

Supporters will initially be able to purchase one ticket per client reference number for home matches, with guest tickets available in a later phase subject to availability. The home on-sale page also notes that all guest tickets must be allocated to supporters with a client reference number.

That is exactly what Palace was doing for several remaining 2025/26 home fixtures in April, including Newcastle, West Ham, Everton and Arsenal, where members were initially limited to one primary ticket before guest phases opened later.

So the safer way to answer this in 2026 is: usually one at first for high-demand home sales, with guest access potentially added later, depending on the match.

Is There a Waiting List to Become a Crystal Palace Member?

No. You can still sign up for a Palace membership during the season if they remain on sale. Memberships expire on 31 May of each season which matters not only for access but also for things like shirt vouchers attached to eligible products.

Crystal Palace Seasonal Hospitality

As a relatively small ground by Premier League standards, Selhurst Park still has a limited premium footprint. 

Palace currently markets four seasonal lounges plus Executive Boxes: Malcolm Allison, Speroni’s Restaurant, The 2010 Club, Legends Restaurant, and Executive Boxes.

Current seasonal pricing starts from:

  • Malcolm Allison: from $3,920 + VAT
  • Speroni’s Restaurant: from $7,435 + VAT
  • The 2010 Club: from $9,395 + VAT
  • Legends Restaurant: from $8,314 + VAT
  • Executive Boxes: from $72,997 + VAT

The official descriptions now focus on premium seating, seasonal menus, inclusive drinks in some lounges, and season-long interaction with Palace legends.

Another important update is that hospitality is no longer just a seasonal waiting-list proposition. Palace also actively sells match-by-match premium tickets, with current examples listed from $426 + VAT in Legends Restaurant, $487 + VAT in Speroni’s Restaurant, $527 + VAT in The 2010 Club, and Executive Boxes sold separately by fixture and availability.

Can I Get Access to Crystal Palace Hospitality with a Membership?

A Palace Membership still does not function as a hospitality pass, but it can come with selected offers and discounts tied to club products. In practical terms, hospitality is now better thought of as a separate access route, whether you are looking at seasonal packages or match-by-match premium tickets.

Conclusion: Everything You Need to Know About Crystal Palace Membership

If you just want a route into home-ticket sales and Ticket Resale, the standard Adult or Junior Membership can do that. 

If you want a more meaningful upgrade in access, Gold and Junior Gold are the stronger options because the 72-hour priority window and away-ballot access are the real dividing line. 

The biggest shift in Palace ticketing is that the club’s Ticket Resale platform is more important than ever, and that home-ticket limits, away thresholds and sales phases are handled more dynamically than ever. 

Beyond that, the secondary market is a handy way to get to sold-out matches, or to get Selhurst Park tickets in areas that are unavailable on the primary market. 

If you want a quicker way to compare availability across multiple resale sites and official hospitality partners, Ticket-Compare.com lists a wide range of tickets for every Crystal Palace match. 

As you read this there are thousands of Crystal Palace tickets on sale through Ticket-Compare.com, with prices starting from $88.
