Daddymac1888 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Hi all joined the Scotland supporters club a couple of years only been to home games (me and my wee boy both members of the supporters club have 5 loyal points each) Does anyone have any idea (good guess) do we have any chance of getting any tickets for Germany (any of the Scotland group games) through official channels or is it no chance. I appreciate any help. been quoted 7300 for hotels and tickets and transport to games (no flights) from a 3rd party (world of discovery) crazy money I think or is this the going rate. Has anyone ever used this company before ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParisInAKilt Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 You can pre register for tickets now https://www.uefa.com/euro2024/ticketing/ Never used a 3rd party ticket company, wouldn’t be paying that amount. At the moment I’m just happy to be in Germany when it’s on, don’t expect to get any tickets but would love to even take in a non Scotland game if possible.

rOsCo2 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Out of curiosity I had a look at world of discovery website. Reading what you get for your money, I would be careful to ensure that it includes tickets to the game if you decided to go down this route. When you actually read what is included it only talks about hotels and transport and the closest I can see to mention of tickets is: Quote Tickets Our manager will assist you with all details to ensure you can get to the games. Much cheaper/better to organise your own hotels and go into the public ballot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddymac1888 Posted June 28, 2023 Author Share Posted June 28, 2023 Thanks guys they have gtd tickets at a cost of 1150-1800 per person depending on category of games so it’s 2470 per person (hotels and transfers) plus 1150 (cheapest) for tickets so £3620 per head all in but I think I just go there and enjoy the atmosphere and if I get tickets it’s a bonus as this seems like greed to me. p.s already in ballot 👍🏴 thanks for your help 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rOsCo2 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Those are the hospitality ticket prices, which are legitimately available via UEFA direct. You can actually book them now and get your money back if Scotland don't qualify. 1,250 Euro a ticket.

scottincarlisle Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 The best bet is to register on uefa.com. I did for 2016, applied for loads & got none though. I did select the cheapest tickets for games which were massively oversubscribed. Best bet to go for the next price level up & above. Did that for 2020 & got czech rep tickets.

Daddymac1888 Posted June 28, 2023 Author Share Posted June 28, 2023 They are for the 3 tickets all group games for 1150-1800 Hospitality is 1250 per ticket so it be 1250 x 3. thanks 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Pete Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Around 32% of tickets should be available to the football associations of qualified countries based on 2016 and 2020 so if we qualify we should get around 16% of the overall capacity for each match. This is not exact and there could be differences depending on the stadium (I’m sure we got 16% for our games at Hampden and slightly less than that for the game at Wembley in 2021). If we assume we would get 16% for each game this would range from 6720 tickets for games in Leipzig (you would currently need 12 points to guarantee a ticket) to 11200 tickets for Berlin (11 points would be required to guarantee a ticket) so it’s fairly safe to say 5 points o would not be be enough. A lot of 12 and 11 pointers will likely only go to home games so I suspect people with fewer points will manage to get tickets via the Supporters Club but there are currently over 26000 members with 5 points or more so there’s pretty much no chance of it going down that low.

adamntg Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I’d be applying for UEFA tickets in the ballot before I started throwing money like that around. I got tickets for the Stade de France in 2016 and Hampden in 2020, probably for about 1 in 8 I applied for. If Scotland end up in Berlin or Dortmund there could be 10,000+ tickets for SSC so just try and get your points as high as you can between now and end of campaign and you never know.

Judith Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Each to their own, but I wouldnt be encouraging these websites. They cant guarantee tickets at this stage and are obviously charging over the odds. If you are in the UEFA ballot and a SSC member you have a decent chance of tickets and there will be fanzones with big screens to enjoy the games should be unlucky enough not to get a ticket from official sources. Nice quandry to have though for a change! Exciting times to be a Scotland fan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I paid €125 for at least one of our games at Hampden. 5 match package for our qualifiers and England game was cheaper than that I think. Crazy stuff.

I'm currently on 10 but don't think it will go up much cause the older games will drop off etc and I never went to the Poland game... so it is gonna be borderline for me. Can't imagine many of the 38k aren't going to be trying for tickets. Although there will be 3 games I suppose so not like everyone will try for all 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s madness not to book hotels imo when you get free cancellation I booked a hotel In Düsseldorf for £2800 for 14 days now for same hotel it’s over £4000 I can only imagine what the price is going to be like if you wait to the draw done as for flights you can get it’s the same deal the early the cheaper but you do take a risk with the draw I have not booked my flight yet but I defo will be soon and if I get tickets (which I probably won’t I travel when I over there) that’s the advantages of booking hotels and flights just now would defo not call it madness 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Düsseldorf is about as far away from Berlin, Leipzig and Munich as London is from Glasgow. Fair play to you though, we are all different. We’ll probably stay in the cities where we are playing on the night of the games and stay in places a good bit away from the host cities in between our games. Takes a bit of planning but that’s half the fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
