For the fifth year in a row, GAA season ticket prices are set to be frozen at \u20ac150 for Division 1 and 2 football and \u20ac140 for Division 1 hurling.<\/p>\n
In 2026, the code and county-specific loyalty scheme entitles the purchaser to all of their county\u2019s National League round games, seven in football and six in hurling.<\/p>\n
Tickets to games thereafter can be bought via the season ticket account with those whose county team reach an All-Ireland final entitled to buy a ticket for the decider providing they have purchase tickets to five previous matches in that championship.<\/p>\n
That is one less game than was what required for football season ticket holders this past season. A juvenile season ticket remains priced at \u20ac30 and the same criteria is applicable for the U16 scheme.<\/p>\n
In 2023, the GAA removed entry to the first championship game as part of the season ticket and that remains the case for 2026, although admission to the All-Ireland senior final double-header in Croke Park is also included.<\/p>\n
The football season ticket has been \u20ac150 since 2021 when it was increased by 25% from \u20ac120. In 2020, a season ticket holder was able to attend all National League games in their designated code. The previous increase occurred in 2018 when the price jumped from \u20ac99. Between 2008 and ’14, it was as low as \u20ac75 and included the county’s opening championship game.<\/p>\n
After a rise in 2024, it is not expected that the GAA will add anything more to the price of an adult league ticket, which was \u20ac20 for Division 1 and 2 in football and Division 1 in hurling.<\/p>\n
A discounted bundle package was unveiled by the GAA for the leagues last December and that could be repeated in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Ballyhale Shamrocks will not be contesting Adrian Mullen\u2019s one match ban arising from last Sunday week\u2019s Leinster quarter-final win over Kilcormac-Killoughey.<\/p>\n
Although the Kilkenny star appeared to be hard done by and the club were disappointed with the proposed sanction, Mullen suffered a hand injury arising from an incident at the end of the game and was already going to miss Sunday\u2019s semi-final against Clough-Ballacolla.<\/p>\n
Mullen was cited for contributing to a melee by referee P\u00e1draig Dunne and Kilcormac-Killoughey\u2019s Cillian Kiely and Charlie Mitchell were also hit with recommended suspensions.<\/p>\n
The Kilcormac-Killoughey supporter who attempted to strike Mullen following the final whistle and was later arrested is expected to be handed a considerable ban from GAA activities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For the fifth year in a row, GAA season ticket prices are set to be frozen at \u20ac150…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":149697,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[1965,1128,61,60,850,112],"class_list":["post-149696","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-hurling","tag-football","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-sport","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149696","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=149696"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149696\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/149697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
