EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

UEFA Portal Question

My son (who is under 18) has a profile on the UEFA app. When I’ve tried to buy general tickets for him on there it says you can’t as he is U18

Therefore not tried to use any access codes as of yet for fear of them being rejected

However the ESTC age rules differ so if I do use an access code will this override the UEFA U18 rule?

Cheers in advance

    How have you tried to buy his tickets ? He can't buy a ticket through his own UEFA ticketing account because that would make him the lead booker for that order. The lead booker cannot be under 18 because such a person cannot enter a legally binding contract.

    What you need to do is, when you buy your own ticket through your UEFA account, buy one for him too as your guest. Note also that this is the only way you can ensure that you are sat together.

    For every match, the FA announcements include a link to their Sales Guide. If you read that carefully, especially steps 5 and 6, you will see how to secure your own ticket then loop back to secure your son's ticket before going to the next step.

    Do read the Sales Guide before tickets go on sale and make sure you know what to do as the sale has to be completed within a time limit.

    Thanks DL to be honest I haven’t read the sales guide on previous ballots as he’s been tied up with work apart from 2 games where his mate had bought in the general uefa sale anyway

    I knew there must’ve been a way but couldn’t think where to look

    News: Pop-up party a great success!

    Jon Widdows from Chingford in Essex won a pop-up party at his house for the England v Costa Rica game on Tuesday, and said it was “one of the best Tuesdays ever!” He was able to invite 10 friends to his house for a party thrown by us, and...

    blogs: Natalie Sawyer: Let’s hope England can bounce back like Brentford

    As a Brentford fan I’m used to suffering disappointments and England need to summon the spirit of the Bees to bounce back stronger than ever. The season before last we missed out twice on promotion from League One – on the last day of the season and in the play-off final – and I know all the players said they didn’t want to go through that again. This time round we came second to go up automatically...

    blogs: John Hemmingham: No shortage of memories despite the disappointment

    There we were at the stadium in Sao Paulo, instruments in hand with 10 minutes to go until England kicked off against Uruguay – it was do-or-die time for the team and we’d been waiting for an hour to hear if they were going to let us play inside. Suddenly stadium officials came to us and told us we couldn’t take the instruments in – that’s when the panic set in. We couldn’t miss the...

    blogs: Natalie Sawyer: Costa Rica will be a platform for performance

    I was actually live on air the moment England’s exit from the World Cup was confirmed and it was a very odd few minutes. As a reporter you usually thrive on breaking news but this was so disappointing, so deflating for the nation that I almost...

    blogs: Mark Wright: Fresh blood for three points?

    As an England fan I’m trying to stay as positive as I can, but it’s difficult in this situation! I was at the Uruguay game and the atmosphere was incredible, even though the result wasn’t good at all. Roy Hodgson has made changes for the Costa Rica game and it’s time for some of the squad players to come in and show us what they can do. There’s no point playing the same guys who lost the...
