Premiership Final Tickets for Leicester Tigers Snapped Up in Hours
For anyone hoping to catch Leicester Tigers battle for the Premiership title at Twickenham next June, the window has already slammed shut—every last ticket from the club's allocation disappeared in a matter of hours. It kicked off at 10am on Sunday, June 8, when 2024/25 Leicester Tigers Season Ticket Holders—undoubtedly the early birds in this race—got priority access. Predictably, demand spiked, and by the time the general sale opened late Monday, June 9, the scramble reached fever pitch, gobbling up the final handful in record time.
This ticket frenzy underscores just how much this final means to Tigers fans. Adult tickets started at £45, and for families there was a break—junior pricing (covering the 15-and-under group) dropped as low as £15. Little ones aged 2 and under skipped the need for tickets altogether, so long as they stayed on a parent or guardian's lap—a small mercy for parents watching the budget. Fans could lock in up to five tickets per transaction, a smart move to help groups stay together in the roaring Twickenham crowd.
Not everyone can leap up the stadium steps or stay on their feet, especially at a high-octane match like this. England Rugby served up accessible seating, including wheelchair and easy-access spots, with tickets starting at £59. Better yet, these came bundled with a free ticket for a companion and on-site parking, removing several barriers that often deter disabled fans from live events.
If you don’t live down the street from Twickenham, travel becomes part of matchday planning. To keep loyal supporters rolling into the capital, the club organized matchday buses for £35 a seat, taking care of some serious transport headaches. That's a tenner or two more than your average intercity bus ride—but for a direct drop-off among fellow Tigers fans, most would call it money well spent.
Here’s one detail that tripped up a few folks: ticket orders for this final couldn’t go through the usual Tigers Ticket Office. Instead, everything funneled through the Premiership Rugby platform, so fans needed an account to get their hands on seats. It’s a departure from the familiar routine, yet necessary for managing the colossal demand and streamlining the process, especially for such a massive event.
Tigers' Twickenham Dream: Anticipation Builds
Circle the date: June 14, 2025. That's when the Tigers will run out under the arch at Twickenham Stadium, gunning for Premiership glory. With every ticket claimed, it's clear that anticipation is sky-high among the Tigers faithful. The event isn't just about the rugby—it’s a day-long pilgrimage for many, a whirlwind of early travel, stadium fireworks, and, hopefully, celebrations that roll deep into the London night.
There’s also the added excitement of seeing the stands packed with a sea of green, white, and red, knowing that every supporter there moved quickly to be part of this moment. Not everyone expected tickets to get snapped up so fast, but that's the risk with big fixtures—and no one expects the atmosphere to be anything less than electric. Those left empty-handed will be watching closely, no doubt, hoping for a miracle on the secondary market or planning for next season’s chase.
With the final less than a year away, the club’s focus (and its fans') now shifts from ticket hunting to match-day dreams, lineup debates, and that nervy countdown until June. For more than a few die-hards, the next piece of magic is already penciled in: chasing silverware at rugby’s greatest stage, and sharing the moment with the people who matter most.
