"When we embarked on this journey 4 years ago we quickly found out that the Greater Philadelphia region had a robust and passionate soccer fan base," said Nick Sakiewicz, Philadelphia Union CEO and Operating Partner. "The fact that we've sold out of season tickets to all Philadelphia Union games so far in advance of our first game at PPL Park is a testament to that fact and we continue to work hard to serve our fans."
A very limited amount of partial plan tickets will also be available, consisting of seven matches, including the PPL Park opener. Those who purchase a partial ticket plan will have the opportunity to buy a ticket to the Celtic F.C. match at the full individual ticket price before tickets go on sale to the general public.
"We would like to thank the fans for the great support that they have shown us over our two games at Lincoln Financial Field," said Philadelphia Union President Tom Veit. "We averaged nearly 30,000 fans between our two home games, which is simply amazing, and we look forward to sell out crowds at PPL Park."
A special single game ticket pre-sale for Founding Members will be held on Friday, June 4 from 10:00 a.m. through 5:00 p.m. Season ticket holders will only be able to add a maximum of two tickets per account for the June 27th opener at PPL Park and four tickets per account for all other matches. Due to a limited amount of tickets available, not all season ticket account holders will be able to purchase tickets in the pre-sale.
Individual tickets range from $25 for the Supporters section through $40 for Sideline seats, while partial plans range from $175 for the Supporters section to $280 for Sideline Seats. For full pricing information, please visit Philadelphia Union.com, or call 877-21-UNION.
