A 10 per cent price rise will hit Leeds United season tickets next year with that hike refunded if the club is relegated to the Championship. The Whites have stressed this is only the second rise in 12 years, but it was not a decision taken lightly.
Season ticket holders will have from 3pm on March 6 until April 7 to renew their pass before it is offered to the 21,850 supporters on the club’s waiting list. The 22/23 price was the second cheapest in the Premier League, according to United, and next year’s fee will start the average match adult price from £22.21, with under-16s at £7.63 and under-11s £4.42 per game.
A club statement said: “We appreciate any increase in the current economic climate is unwelcome, particularly when it coincides with poor performance on the pitch.

“The decision has not been taken lightly, but we believe the new pricing is consistent with both our principle of running the club’s finances responsibly and maintaining our commitment to affordable football at Elland Road. Our prices will remain among the cheapest in the Premier League.”
United also said: "This rise will only partially offset the significant increase we have seen in matchday operational costs over the same period, which is below the prevailing rate of inflation."
Season tickets will be sold exclusively online via the club’s SeatGeek platform from 3pm. To access the SeatGeek platform and renew your season ticket for the 2023/24 campaign, click here.
