EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

Category 2 ticket - back row upper tier and 11am entry - how is this okay?

I’ve just had my ticket through on the uefa app.

Category 2 - block 505 row 31. I’ve paid 125 euros for a ticket on my own and I’ve been placed in the upper tier almost at the back of the stadium.

My time slot entry is 11-1130am. That means I will have to be in the stadium 150 minutes before kick off and I’ve been made aware there’s going to be no beer. If it’s anything like previous games at Wembley, bags and/or battery packs won’t be allowed in which means a phone with no charge probably half way into that waiting period before kick off.

To make things worse I’m going to the game on my own so can’t even sit next to a mate and let the time pass by. I know everyone’s said no ones ever really on their own at an England match but it still is a grim overlook.

Other gripes;

Category 3 ticket holders I know have paid half the price of a category 2 ticket and their seated 10 rows back behind the goal in the lower tier. Additionally, their time slots are 1300-1330.

Maybe the old age saying of you get what you pay for, really isn’t that accurate in these circumstances.

    In reply to Paddy Buckley:

    Fully agree about the resale platform Paddy. Uefa have already got the money for the ticket, so they dont lose out. In fact they can add a 'handling charge ' to cover any costs of running it if they wanted more millions. Even more so for the knockout games, where fans of 1 country gamble on buying a ticket then dont want to go if their team doesnt qualify , but thousands of the team that does get though who would love to buy the ticket ,cant.
