Season/Members Cards: These Chelsea tickets are reserved seats that are available at Stamford Bridge for every match of the season. Football Ticket Pad customers will then receive their Chelsea ticket before the match, before returning their season/members card in a pre-paid envelope after the game.

Chelsea Season/Members cards are available in various parts of the stadium, and fans can see the available ticket types when browsing their intended Chelsea ticket page. Once customers get their tickets, they scan their season/members card at the turnstile when gaining entry to the stadium.

E-tickets: Chelsea tickets always come in the form of either paper tickets or season cards; unfortunately, there are no ticket options available at Stamford Bridge.

Paper tickets: This is the more traditional way to receive your official Chelsea FC matchday tickets. Once your payment has been confirmed on Football Ticket Pad, your match tickets are then sent out by post to the address provided in your payment details.

Customers then receive their tickets 3–4 days before the match, and they will be notified by email once their tickets have been dispatched. Chelsea ticket holders can then gain entry to Stamford Bridge with their paper ticket at the turnstile.

Stamford Bridge Seating

Matthew Harding Stand/North Stand: This is a two-tiered stand located behind the goal in the North End of Stamford Bridge. This is where the majority of Chelsea season ticket holders are seated and where Chelsea season and member cards are hosted.

The Matthew Harding Stand was named after the former club director, whose investment transformed the club in the early 1900s. This is one of the most lively areas in the stadium to sit in, especially in the lower tier.

Fans can buy both Shortside Upper and Shortside Lower tickets for this section of the ground. The club museum and Chelsea Health Club and Spa can be found adjacent to the stand.

East Stand: This is the Main Stand at Stamford Bridge and is made up of three tiers. The players’ tunnel, dugout, and Press Box are all housed in this part of the stadium, with the middle tier providing Executive Boxes and Club Suites for Chelsea ticket holders. A family section can also be found in the lower tier of the East Stand.

When the stand was built in 1905, it was the only stand that was built with a roof. The East Stand was then demolished and rebuilt in 1973, and it now holds around 11,000 Chelsea supporters.

Shed End/South Stand: This is the smallest stand in the stadium, holding just over 6,000 fans. Despite its size, it is one of the loudest parts of the stadium and houses around 3,000 fans in the away section in the corner towards the East Stand. Shortside Upper tickets are widely regarded as some of the best seats in Stamford Bridge in terms of both noise and view.

West Stand: This is the largest and most recent stand at Stamford Bridge after it was fully refurbished in 2001 to hold over 13,000 fans over three tiers. The middle tier of the West Stand is designated entirely to Executive Boxes, known as the Millennium Suites, all of which are named after former Chelsea players. There are six suites in this stand, which also include the Clarke Suite, Drakes Suite, and Tambling Suite.

On matchday, ticket holders can visit the Peter Osgood statue outside the East Stand in memory of the former striker, who was known as ‘The King of Stamford Bridge.## Chelsea Tickets Frequently Asked Questions:

How much are Chelsea tickets?

The price of Chelsea tickets is dependent on multiple factors. One of the main reasons is the competition that you are interested in. For instance, if you opt for early-stage Carabao Cup fixtures, you can expect to pay far less than if you were interested in attending a hotly contested derby against Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League.

Another consideration to factor in is where you wish to be seated during the game. You should expect to pay more if you wish to be closer to the action for example.

Where is Stamford Bridge Stadium?

Situated on Fulham Road, Stamford Bridge, home of Chelsea Football Club, can be found facing Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, past the Brompton Cemetery.
