FC Nantes fans angry over season ticket price at Beaujoire stadium

A first (bad) news for the fans. With a league ranging from 20 to 18 clubs for the 2023-2024 season, season ticket prices for Ligue 1 could have been brought down. This sesame allows you to attend all meetings at home. And, at first glance, FC Nantes has followed logic: the Nantes ultras will thus pay six euros less than last season to sit in the stands at all matches.

Apparently, the price of the canary subscription then drops. For the most accessible category, you pay between 165 and 190 euros, depending on whether you are a new season ticket holder or a new season ticket holder (reductions for several categories, including children and students).

“Multiplied by two”

Except that, if we relate the price of the season ticket to the number of matches, the price of the match actually increases… by 8%. “Logically, we expected the price to drop as there are fewer matchessays Camille, a five-year subscriber. On the overall price we realized that it had dropped slightly but when we watch the game we got screwed“, regrets the fan.

“There are stands where it increases enormouslysays Thierry, president of a supporters club. Typically, one child under 12 in the Océane stand [tribune latérale de la Beaujoire]doubled the price of his subscription!”report first remember that this increase does not only concern FC Nantes. “As a percentage, for example, of Amazon’s Ligue 1 pass [diffuseur officiel du championnat]seats have increased much less: the TV subscription now costs two euros more with two games less“.

Contacted, FC Nantes welcomes the enthusiasm for next season. Note that Montpellier is the only Ligue 1 club to lower prices for all new season ticket holders.
