Tips for Buying AVFC Tickets for the First Time
Following on from that last point, let’s go into more depth about the price of tickets for Villa games on both the secondary and primary markets.
Secondary Market Ticket Prices for Aston Villa Tickets
As we mentioned earlier, the price of Villa tickets on resale ticket websites has a lot to do with supply and demand. This is why Aston Villa ticket prices can differ a lot from match to match, as the opponent is often a key pricing factor.
So, it may be tough to track down cheap Aston Villa vs Liverpool tickets. Still, you may find lower prices if the game is taking place on Tuesday evening against lower-table opposition.
Here are a few strategies to save money on secondary market Villa tickets:
We have published a handy guide to secondary ticket marketplaces. For now let’s see how tickets for villa games are priced on official channels.
Primary Market Aston Villa Ticket Prices
Going through the Aston Villa box office, adult tickets for Aston Villa games will cost between £44.50, in the corners and behind the goals, and £92 on the halfway line in the Doug Ellis Stand.
The Match Category (A or B) plays a big role, and we’ll talk about it further down this page. For reference on these locations, we have a complete guide to the Villa Park seating plan.
There are significant discounts on tickets for AVFC games if you’re over the age of 65 or under 21. These concession tickets are £39 to £92 in the same sections mentioned just now.
The cheapest Aston Villa ticket for a child aged 15-18 is £22, and this drops to £13.50 for children under the age of 14.
We should point out that primary market Villa tickets are like gold dust, and most matches sell out.
Why are Aston Villa Tickets Hard to Get?
First off, the club is riding the crest of a wave. Aston Villa finished 4th in the 2023-24 season, qualifying for Champions League football. While we’re on that topic, why not browse our choice of Champions League tickets.
Domestically, Aston Villa have at least 30,000 Season Ticket holders. In a stadium holding just over 42,000 this puts a squeeze on the number of tickets available for any Aston Villa home game.
Read on for more insight into the process of buying general admission Villa tickets through official channels.
If you’re wondering how to get tickets for Aston Villa games through the club’s box office, home matches go on sale about four weeks before a fixture.
This is a little later than at many Premier League clubs where the average sales window opens 6-8 weeks before a game.
Another thing to remember is that AVFC fixtures are divided between Match Categories, as we’ll show next.
What are AVFC Match Categories?
The price and availability of an Aston Villa home ticket is affected by the opponent, broken down between Category A and Category B:
These include local derby opponents and top Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United, Wolves, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United.
Keep in mind that it may not be possible for AVFC Members to buy tickets for some Category A games unless they have a history of attending matches at Villa Park with their membership.
This is everyone else, and as a rule of thumb includes mid-table, lower-table and newly promoted Premier League teams.
Now we’ll show how and when these tickets are sold.
AVFC Home Ticket Order of Sale
So, roughly a month before the fixture there will be three main sales windows if you want to get AVFC tickets on the primary market. Villa match tickets are sold on a first come, first served basis in this schedule:
We should restate that the biggest matches at Villa Park will never go on general sale. And now we’ll look into the process of getting tickets for AVFC away games.
Buying Aston Villa Away Tickets
Going through official channels, getting football tickets for Villa away matches is a different process and becomes much more difficult.
It’s all down to the small allocation, which will never be more than 15% of an opponent’s stadium capacity or 3,000 for stadiums seating more than 30,000. Due to this, AVFC Season Ticket holders are the only ones with a chance of buying tickets. Starting four weeks before the fixture, we’ll explore the normal order of sale:
Now we’ve looked at general admission tickets, in the next section we’ll assess your options if you want a more luxurious, VIP experience at Villa Park.

So now we’ve looked into the process of buying all kinds of tickets for Villa matches, it’s time to delve into matchdays at historic Villa Park.
Despite dating back to 1897, Villa Park is a stadium that is constantly changing. Some things will always stay the same like the beautiful facade of the majestic 13,000-seat Holte End, but the club makes improvements from season to season.
For instance, in summer 2024 they installed safe standing and additional seats in the stadium bowl to bump up the capacity for supporters. As we mentioned earlier, the club also introduced new hospitality options. This is all against the backdrop of a long-term redevelopment that will raise the capacity from 42,640 to 50,000+.
Now let’s dive into some facts and tips for matchdays at Villa Park, and tackle some questions that come up.
How to Get to Villa Park

How Many Away Fans are Allowed at Aston Villa?
Villa Park’s away allocation was about 2,900 for the 2024-25 season. This can vary according to the opponent, and can be reduced for derbies when the club anticipates rowdier supporters. We cover this topic in more depth in our guide to Premier League away allocations.
Where Do Away Fans Sit at Aston Villa?
As we’ll show below, the away section at Villa Park is in the north-east corner of the longside Doug Ellis Stand. In Blocks Q and P, the allocation is spread across the lower and upper tier respectively. You can enter via the turnstiles Q91-Q96 for the lower tier and P87-P89 for the upper tier.

Aston Villa Junior Memberships
Younger Aston Villa fans are able to get in on the action with two age-specific membership packages. These are Villans, for kids aged 12-17, and Cubs (3-11). The packages are essentially identical, except Villans receive a bag, keyring and bucket hat in their welcome pack, while Cubs get a backpack, a set of badges and an AVFC football. Now we’ll run through the other benefits of a Junior Membership:
So now we’ve covered membership in a little more detail, let’s move on to Aston Villa Season Tickets, perfect for those who want tickets for every Villa home game.

Unlike many Premier League clubs, Aston Villa doesn’t offer a Ticket Exchange service, but there is a function on the ticketing page, under Personal Details.
Here you can request to resell a ticket, which will be made available at face value, calculated at 1/19 of the price of the seller’s season ticket. If the resale goes through, the seller receives 80% of this ticket price. Here’s a typical transaction:
Next we’ll address some general questions that often come up about the Villans.
Why is the club called Aston Villa?
The name comes from the part of the Lozells area where the club was founded. “Aston Villa” was the name of a Georgian house that once stood at the corner of Lozells Road and Heathfield Road. In 1850 the Aston Villa Wesleyan Chapel was founded near the house. A cricket club was founded here in 1872, and the football club followed in 1876.
Have Aston Villa always played at Villa Park?
No, Villa Park was not Aston Villa’s first home. The club’s first official ground was Wellington Road in Birmingham’s Percy Barr area. The club played there from 1876 to 1897 when they moved to Villa Park.
Who are Aston Villa’s rivals?
Birmingham City are Aston Villa’s main rivals, and the two clubs face off in the Second City Derby. This game has become less frequent in recent years, with Birmingham City stuck in the lower divisions. The other big rival for Villa is West Bromwich Albion, and the two teams face off in the West Midlands Derby. A little less contentious are Villa’s match-ups against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Coventry City.
What do fans call Aston Villa?
The Villans, and this comes from the “Villa’ part of the club’s name. A less common Villa nickname is The Lions, which comes from the lion on the club badge, chosen by two early Aston Villa administrators and players, William McGregor and George Ramsay.
What was Aston Villa’s golden age?
The Villans’ successful period in the late Victorian and early Edwardian era. From 1886 to 1914 Villa were the top football team in England and maybe the world, winning the top division (Old First Division) 6 times and the FA Cup 5 times. Villa last won the cup in 1957, but this could be their year, and you can follow their progress with FA Cup tickets.
