The National Football League has announced plans for ticket sales for a potential neutral-site AFC Championship Game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills at Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The league has advised both teams to begin selling tickets from their allotment in preparation.
The announcement answers a big question that centered on season-ticket holders. The league’s answer is to hold an exclusive presale for season-ticket holders for both teams:
“Season Ticket Members for both teams who previously opted-in to purchase AFC Championship Game tickets will have an exclusive presale opportunity to buy tickets to the potential AFC title game in Atlanta at a preferred rate beginning at 10 a.m. ET/9 a.m. CT on Wednesday, January 18. Season Ticket Members will be provided unique passcodes tied to their season ticket account. Season Ticket Members will be contacted via email by each club with additional information on how to participate.”
As for other fans, they too can sign up for an exclusive presale online:
“All other fans interested in purchasing tickets can sign up to receive a passcode to participate in a presale, subject to availability, beginning at 10 a.m. ET/9 am CT on Friday, January 20. Fans who wish to participate in the Friday presale can visit https://www.NFL.com/AFC to register for the presale. “
Tickets will go on sale to the general public beginning Monday, January 23 at 10 a.m. ET. There will be a six-ticket limit on all purchases.
Keep in mind that any tickets purchased as part of the presale opportunities are only for a potential neutral-site game in Atlanta, which was brought about because of the cancellation of the Bills-Bengals game in Week 17. If the Chiefs were to host the Bengals at Arrowhead Stadium for the AFC title, all presale purchases would automatically be refunded in full to the original method of payment.
The AFC title game will take place on Sunday, January 29 at 6:30 p.m. ET regardless of location.
