For the most dedicated Foxes, a season ticket is the Holy Grail. With it you get a seat for all of Leicester City’s Premier League home games.
Not only that, but you will also be on the ladder, working your way towards the right to buy Leicester City away tickets, which are like gold dust—as rare as Jamie Vardy missing an open goal.
So, maybe you’re wondering how long is the Leicester City Season Ticket Waiting List? The short answer is that there is no waiting list for a Leicester City Season Ticket.
LCFC uses another, more complicated loyalty points system, and we’ll explain it in this article. So read on and we’ll tell you just what you’ve got to do to buy a Leicester City Season Ticket.
How Do I Apply for a Leicester City Season Ticket?
First you have to be a Fox Member. Signing up for £35 a year will automatically put you in the running for a Leicester City Season ticket.
Next you have to be a regular at the King Power Stadium across multiple years. It’s not enough to buy a Leicester City membership one season and attend every game; by the current criteria you need to show up to at least half of LCFC home matches over three seasons.
Every time you renew your Leicester City membership, and every time you attend a home game, you earn something called Home Priority Points.
Your tally of Home Priority Points at the end of the season will determine whether you can apply for a Leicester City Season Ticket or have to wait another year.
How Do Leicester City Home Priority Points Work?
With this loyalty points system, your Leicester City online account will automatically calculate the number of points you’ve earned. Here’s how you can increase that total:
- 10 Home Priority Points: Renew Your Leicester City Membership
- 1 Home Priority Point: Attend a Leicester City home fixture
Your total will gradually build and roll over from one season to the next.
Every Home Leicester Match Gives You the Same Priority Points
A big upside is that you don’t have to pick and choose the matches you attend to earn more LCFC Home Priority Points.
Some Premier League clubs put a fixture weighting on their loyalty points schemes, penalising fans who only attend the big games.
With Leicester, all you have to do is make sure you keep showing up, and eventually you’ll reach the necessary total Home Priority Points to buy a Leicester City Season Ticket. And what is that total? We’ll explain next!
How Many Leicester City Home Priority Points Are Needed for a Season Ticket?
In spring 2024, to be able to buy 2024/25 LCFC Season Tickets you needed:
- 55 Home Priority Points.
This was the highest required total for several years, which makes sense as the Foxes achieved promotion in 2024.
500 lucky fans qualified for the chance to buy a season ticket, and were maybe dreaming of a repeat of that Premier League win under Ranieri in 2015/16.
To explain that total, there were more games available to attend in the Championship, in a 24-team league.
How Has the LCFC Season Ticket Threshold Changed?
The threshold varies from season to season. The biggest factor is the number of fans with Leicester City Season Tickets who renew each season.
If there’s a high renewal rate the Home Priority Points threshold will be higher. Something that will markedly affect the renewal rate is the club performance.
Leicester City have been on a rocky road since 2021, and it is reflected in the number of Home Priority Points needed for a season ticket.
Here are some recent Home Priority Points Thresholds for Leicester Season Tickets:
- 2023/24: 34
- 2022/23: 36
- 2021/22: 38
How Many Matches Do I Have to Attend to Buy a Leicester City Season Ticket?
Going by the 2024/25 Home Priority Points threshold, you need to be a regular at the King Power Stadium for much more than a season.
55 points equates to three seasons of renewals, and attending 10 matches a season, which is an achievable number for an average fan. You’ll know all the words to “Keep on Smiling” by then!
If you’re a truly dedicated Foxes fan, you could just about pull that off in two seasons, by showing up to almost every home match.
Will it Get Easier to Buy a Leicester City Season Ticket?
Perhaps. The biggest factor driving the LCFC Season Tickets renewal rate is the club’s performance on the pitch.
For some time, the Home Priority Point threshold sank year on year, as the Foxes lost their way during their last stint in the Premier League.
Leicester City have come up to the top tier again, but they face an uncertain season. If relegation is on the cards, then you won’t need as many Home Priority Points to get a Leicester Season Ticket come spring 2025.
How Much Do Leicester City Season Tickets Cost?
The average is about £577 a year for adults.
If you manage to accrue enough Home Priority Points you’ll be eligible to buy one of the cheaper season tickets in the Premier League, even with a 5% rise for 2024/25 (10% for the high-end First Floor tickets).
So here’s a breakdown of the prices, from cheapest to most expensive:
| Age Band | Cheapest LCFC Season Ticket | Most Expensive LCFC Season Ticket |
| Adult | £404 | £1,029 |
| Senior (65+) | £320 | £847 |
| Under 22 | £320 | £1,029 |
| Under 18 | £158 | £514 |
| Under 16 | £110 | £514 |
| Under 12 | £63 | £514 |
| Under 8 | £32 | £514 |
As a rule the cheapest tickets at the King Power Stadium are always in the corners. This is down to the awkward sightlines here in blocks A1 and C2 (West Stand) and G1 and G2 (East Stand..
Prices rise the closer you are to the halfway line in the West Stand and East Stand, culminating with premium First Floor LCFC Season Tickets high in the West Stand.
Leicester Season Ticket prices were frozen for eight years from 2014 to 2022. There was a 5% price for 2022/23 followed by a real-terms freeze during the Championship season.
How Many Season Ticket Holders Are There at Leicester City?
The club keeps a lot of the information about LCFC season tickets close to its chest, and this is one fact kept under wraps.
By most estimates there are about 25,000 season ticket holders at the King Power Stadium in 2024/25. As a percentage, that comes to about 77.5%.
