Liverpool have confirmed plans to increase ticket prices at Anfield over the next three seasons, beginning with a modest rise for the 2026/27 campaign.
The club announced that general admission ticket prices will increase by three percent next season, with further adjustments in the following two years tied to inflation.
Those future increases will be linked to the Consumer Price Index, with a 5% cap per season to limit the overall rise for supporters.
For the 2026–27 season, adult match tickets will increase by between £1.25 and £1.75, while season tickets will rise by between £21.50 and £27.00, equating to a maximum increase of £1.42 per game.
Liverpool stated that the decision reflects significant increases in operating costs, with matchday expenses at Anfield rising by 85% since the 2016–17 season.
The club also highlighted a 107% rise in utility costs over the past four years, alongside a 286% increase in business rates and a 73% rise in staff wages excluding player salaries.
Despite the increases, Liverpool have maintained that certain ticket categories will remain unchanged to protect accessibility for supporters.
Junior tickets and local general admission tickets will stay frozen at £9.00, while the age range for young adult tickets will be expanded from 21 to 24 to allow more fans access to discounted prices.
The age bracket for senior concessions will remain unchanged, while away ticket prices will not be affected following a wider Premier League agreement.
Liverpool said the pricing structure follows a period of relative stability, with ticket prices having been frozen in eight of the last 10 seasons.
The club also noted that prices in the Kop stand have not increased since Fenway Sports Group took ownership in 2010, despite wider economic inflation during that period.
The decision comes after consultations with the club’s Supporters’ Board, who had pushed for a continued price freeze.
In a statement, the board said they were ‘extremely disappointed’ with the move and had urged the club to avoid passing additional costs onto supporters.
They argued that the club had an opportunity to lead by example and support fan loyalty during a period of financial uncertainty.
Liverpool maintain that the increases are necessary to balance rising operational costs with ongoing investment in the club.
The new pricing model will take effect next season, with further adjustments expected annually in line with inflation over the agreed three-year period.
