Newcastle United's away support is set for a crucial late-season trip, with ticket applications now open for the clash against Nottingham Forest. The Magpies will make the journey to the City Ground on Sunday, 10th May (2pm BST) for their penultimate away fixture of the 2025/26 Premier League campaign, a match that could have significant implications in the final league standings.
The club has introduced a revised ticket process for away games this season, developed following direct consultation with season ticket holders. The application window is currently open, allowing all season ticket holders to register their interest for this fixture.
After the application window closes, the club will process all submissions. Tickets will be allocated primarily in loyalty point order, ensuring the most dedicated travelers are rewarded. In a positive move for fans, the club will also ballot a small number of tickets for those who do not meet the initial loyalty point threshold, offering a chance for more supporters to experience this important away day.
Successful applicants will receive an email with a dedicated purchase window. This is where the new, fan-friendly system comes into play: tickets will be sold using a 'select your own seat' model. This gives supporters the flexibility to choose their exact seats and sit alongside friends or family, removing the previous need for organized travel groups and making planning a trip to Nottingham much simpler.
Once the initial purchase window closes, any remaining tickets will be offered to the next tier of applicants based on loyalty points, ensuring a fair and cascading distribution.
Fans should note several important ground regulations for the City Ground: children must be at least four years old to attend, and upgrades on concessionary tickets are not permitted. Supporters should carry appropriate ID, as there may be age checks on concession tickets.
A key feature for the vocal away support is that each block of Newcastle's allocation contains rail seating tickets. Supporters in these sections have the option to stand throughout the match, so choose your preference carefully during the purchase process, subject to availability. Please note, children under 14 are not permitted in these rail seating areas unless accompanied by an adult.
