Chelsea FC team up with Ticketmaster

Chelsea Football Club have signed a multi-year partnership agreement with ticketing platform Ticketmaster.

The deal will see Ticketmaster become the West London club’s Official Ticketing Partner, bringing its technology to Chelsea’s home ground, Stamford Bridge, to help them move towards a “digital-first experience”.

Starting with the 2025/26 season, digital tickets will be issued to provide spectators with a seamless, more secure experience, which will also be in line with Chelsea’s aim of curbing ticket touting. 

On the deal, Casper Stylsvig, Chief Revenue Officer for Chelsea Football Club, said:

“We are delighted to welcome Ticketmaster to the club at a crucial time, as we move towards digital ticketing for the 2025/26 season. Partnering with a leading force in the industry brings significant value to our operations, ensuring we offer our fans a smoother, safer experience with best-in-class products, while continuing to address the issue of ticket touts. We are excited to begin working together and look forward to getting started.“

Chris Gratton, Managing Director at Ticketmaster Sport, added:

“Chelsea FC is one of the biggest clubs in football, and we’re excited to be part of their journey. Our goal is to make ticketing as simple as possible for fans. We can’t wait to kick off this partnership and ensure every supporter gets a ticketing experience worthy of the Blues.“
