So you want to get to Anfield but you have no idea how! Well, be prepared to read a bit, everything you need to know about buying tickets is in this thread.

Season Tickets

Unless you have one or have a family member with one already, Season ticket is off the table for around about another 30 years. The waiting list is closed, so you can't even get on that! Give up, it's not happening.


Away Tickets

Same story as Season Tickets, if you aren't already on board, you have a 0% chance of getting an away ticket from the club. Maybe look into supporters clubs? Your best chance would be looking into getting a ticket in the home stand. Sorry!


Members Sale

What is it?

People with LFC Membership will be able to buy tickets to premier league games taking place in the second half of the season.

When is it?

The second (and final) member sale starts from 14th November 2017

To be eligible to purchase tickets during this sale, Official LFC Memberships must be purchased before midnight on Sunday November 12.

(Sales for disabled members starts 9th-10th)

The sale will probably be around 9:00BST but keep checking as this has not been announced.

How much will it cost?

Membership will cost between £26.99 - £43.99 for the year. See full membership prices

Between £37.00 - £59.00. Ticket prices will vary depending on where in the stadium and what match you are attending. See price list here

Requirements:

Credits?

Members with 13 games can purchase guaranteed tickets on Tuesday 14th November from 8:15am for the following games:

  • Manchester City
  • Tottenham Hotspur
  • West Ham United
  • Newcastle United
  • Watford
  • AFC Bournemouth
  • Stoke City
  • Brighton & Hove Albion

Members with 4 games can purchase first-come, first-served tickets on Wednesday 15th November from 8:15am for the following games:

  • Manchester City
  • Tottenham Hotspur
  • Brighton & Hove Albion

All members can purchase first-come, first-served tickets on Thursday 16th November from 8:15am for the following games:

  • West Ham United
  • Newcastle United
  • Watford
  • AFC Bournemouth
  • Stoke City

All tickets will sell out. so be prepared with your login details and membership!

Realistically, will I get a ticket?

You should be able to get a ticket or two if you are organised and on time. If it's your first season, you will likely not get tickets to the 'big' games but you should be able to get some lower/mid table games.

It will be a stressful experience, wait times long and slow moving but it should be possible to get the odd ticket.

Who is this sale best suited for?

Mostly UK residents who plan on going to go a couple of matches throughout the season. Also, if you want to build up your credits to go to more matches in the future.

It's my first time, tell me everything I need to know

This is the best way to get legit tickets at face value. You'll need to know what games you want to get to, a long time in advance and take part in the most stressful 2 days of the year when the tickets drop but you should be able to get to a couple of games this way. Remember, that if you're buying a new membership that has no games attended credits, you won't qualify for the 'biggest' games of the season. If you want to go to a match like the Derby etc and don't want to build up your games attended, I recommend skipping to the Hospitality section.

Remember it is a membership per ticket, so if you want to buy another ticket for your friend they'll need a membership which you can then link together so you can buy in one transaction. (Scroll down a bit for more information)

Once you've got your membership sorted, you can look at getting a ticket. There are 2 members sales over the course of the season. One in July (first half of the season) and the second around November time (second half).

The final member sale is from 14th November 2017

Keep an eye out for when the general member sale is (no credits required) as this is when you'll be able to buy.

You'll need these links. The first is the official guide on how to use their buying system, the second is the ticket availability page and the third is the ticket buying website. The Tickets availability site will be the most useful as it will give you specific information on when they go on sale and what requirements are.

Good luck!


Local Members Sale

What is it?

A face value sale for members who have an L postcode.

When is it?

Roughly 1/2 weeks before each home match.

Requirements:

How much will it cost?

Face value, so approx £49, depending on where you get a ticket and for what opposition. See price list here

Realistically, will I get a ticket?

If you qualify and are in the queue nice and early, you should be fine getting a ticket.

Who is this sale best suited for?

Locals Only!

It's my first time, tell me everything I need to know

Once you have your membership sorted and your account is registered to an L postcode, you'll need to keep an eye out on the ticket availability page. This will tell you when your sale will take place. It is constantly being updated so, during the season, check it every few days. The ticket sale will likely happen a week or two before the match. You will have to collect this ticket no more than 3 days before the match and provide ID to show your postcode.

Tickets in this sale are £9.

Realistically, will I get a ticket?

Load the page nice and early to get in the queue and you should be ok. It can be tough but there is still plenty of opportunities. And if it says 'Sold Out' before 8:30, keep refreshing the page as tickets pop back up. If there's nothing popping up by 9:30, you can give up!

Who is this sale best suited for?

Locals only!

It's my first time, tell me everything I need to know

Check your account is registered to an L postcode. Now you'll need to keep an eye out on the ticket availability page. This will tell you when your sale will take place.

You can buy Hospitality for all Premier League games now

Anywhere from £229 - £725. There are lots of different types of Hospitality, all of which are pretty expensive but provide a full match day experience. Have a look here for more information on prices

If you have the money, you will get a ticket. Buy soon as the 'big' games usually sell out a bit closer to the match but there are currently not matches sold out.

It's my first time, tell me everything I need to know

You're on your own with this one! All I can day is, head over here and buy your ticket. This one doesn't really require a lot of information! Bear in mind, as this is hospitality, you may be required to conform to a dress code, this includes not wearing any LFC jerseys.


Match Breaks (Thomas Cook)

Auto-cup scheme [CLOSED]

What is it?

The Auto Cup Scheme allows Season Ticket holders and Members the opportunity to secure home tickets for Liverpool's season-wide cup campaigns. Once you've registered in the Auto Cup Scheme, you'll remain in it for as long as the team is involved in the competitions you've enlisted for. This includes domestic and European cup games. The auto-cup sells out pretty fast so you may be too late for this.

When is it?

This scheme happens at the start of each season so you've missed it. Tune in next time for this!

Requirements:

How much will it cost?

Face value. Cup prices vary on opponent and stage of the competition.

Who is this sale best suited for?

If you want to attend every cup match that we qualify for.

Realistically, will I get a ticket?

If you sign up in time and your bank details are kept up to date, you are guaranteed a ticket for each cup match.


Cup Matches (Non-Autocup)

What is it?

Standard sales for cup games throughout the season.

When is it?

These sales will be on a per-game basis and happen closer to the time. Keep an eye on the Ticket Availability page.

Requirements:

There will be various stages of ticket sale ranging from lots of requirements to possibly even a general sale. Again, keep an eye on the Ticket Availability page for information once it's available.

How much will it cost?

Depends on the match / where you are sat.

Who is this sale best suited for?

If you want to attend a Cup game in the coming weeks.

Realistically, will I get a ticket?

Be on the ball and you should be in with a shout. Best advice is to check the Ticket Availability page every few days.


Adding Family Members

You are able to buy two or more tickets through the site (and even if you want, have them right next to each other).

However, please keep in mind it is one ticket per one membership!

In order to buy a ticket for you and your friend for example, they have to be linked to you as "friends & family".

To link a user to friends and family, log-in HERE. After you have done this, you should see a page which looks like THIS. Then, fill in what it asks for (Membership Number and Surname). It will look something like THIS. Then simply select "Add me to their friends and family", then have your friend do the exact same, but your details instead.

If this is correctly done, you should see there name when selecting the owner of each ticket. SEEN HERE


Touts

Do not buy from Touts.

If you are viewing this before 14th November, you have plenty of time to buy a Legit ticket at a reasonable price. Buying from touts just enables them to continue operating and inflating prices.

Buying from touts / twitter / third party sites is dangerous and leaves you open to getting scammed. It does happen, a friend of mine was scammed out of x2 @ £90 per ticket last season.


International Fans

'I'm an International fan, how do I get to Anfield?'

I would recommend 2 ways to get there.

  1. Hospitality. Expensive but will guarantee you a match ticket to any game of your choosing. You usually get a meal and a whole experience so it'll make the day even more special.

  2. Look into local supporter groups, they may be able to help you out in terms of tickets. Some may even get an allocation from the club for certain matches.


If you have any more questions, please ask them in this thread, all other threads will be deleted and directed here.

Check the last thread and see if you questions have already been asked/answered.

Thanks to /u/Pummpy1 for his guide (which in places I have shamelessly ripped). See his guide here
