EnglishHow Do Arsenal Canada Members Apply for Arsenal Home Match Tickets?
Updated
Arsenal Canada members apply for Emirates home match tickets through the club's ticket ballots, which open and close on fixture-specific dates. You must hold a valid membership that includes ticket ballot access — either the 26/27 Full Membership ($65.00) or the 26/27 Ticketing Membership ($35.00) — and you apply before the published deadline for the match you want. Applications are not first-come, first-served: the site describes them as ballots, so submitting within the window is what matters.
Who Can Apply
| Membership | Price | Ticket ballot access | Other benefits |
|---|---|---|---|
| 26/27 Full Membership | $65.00 one time (valid 2026-06-01 to 2027-05-31) | Yes | Arsenal Canada branded merchandise, 10% off Arsenal merchandise at Soccer World, 10% off at Arsenal Direct, FPL League and Pick 'Em competitions |
| 26/27 Ticketing Membership | $35.00 one time | Yes | Ticket ballots only |
If tickets are your only goal, the Ticketing Membership covers it. The Full Membership adds merchandise discounts and supporter competitions on top of the same ballot access.
Step-by-Step Application Process
- Choose and purchase a membership. Both tiers are one-time payments for the 26/27 season. Ballot access only works while your membership is valid.
- Find the fixture you want on the Upcoming applications list. Each entry shows the match, the application opening date, and the application closing date or deadline.
- Note the deadline in your own time zone. Deadlines are published in EST — for example, the Arsenal v Hull City application closes August 29th at 5PM EST.
- Submit your application within the window. The site's "Secure Tickets" section directs members to the ticket request process; follow the linked process page for the current steps.
- Wait for the ballot result. Because tickets are allocated by ballot rather than instant purchase, applying early in the window does not improve your position.
Upcoming Fixtures and Application Dates
The following dates come directly from the site's Upcoming applications list. Treat them as the planning baseline and re-check the fixture page before applying, since closing dates marked TBD may be updated.
| Match | Competition | Applications open | Applications close / deadline | Match date |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arsenal v Hull City | — | — | August 29, 5PM EST | November 7, 2026 |
| Arsenal v Manchester City | — | August 1 | — | November 28, 2026 |
| Arsenal v Bournemouth | — | August 1 | — | December 12, 2026 |
| Arsenal v Manchester United | — | September 1 | — | December 19, 2026 |
| Arsenal vs Sabah | Champions League | September 14, 2026 | November 21, 2026 | January 27, 2027, 20:00 BST, Emirates Stadium |
| Arsenal vs Ipswich Town | Premier League | September 1, 2026 | TBD | January 2, 2027, 15:00 BST, Emirates Stadium |
| Arsenal vs Brentford | Premier League | September 1, 2026 | TBD | January 6, 2027, 15:00 BST, Emirates Stadium |
| Arsenal vs Newcastle | Premier League | October 8, 2026 | TBD | January 23, 2027, 15:00 BST, Emirates Stadium |
A pattern worth noting: opening dates cluster at the start of a month (August 1, September 1, October 8), while closing dates can fall months later. The Sabah fixture, for instance, opens September 14 but does not close until November 21 — a two-month window for a January match.
Common Pitfalls
- Missing the EST deadline. A 5PM EST close is late evening in the UK and mid-afternoon on the west coast of Canada. Convert before the final day rather than assuming you have until midnight.
- Applying without an active membership. Ballot access is a membership benefit; an expired or unpurchased membership means no application.
- Assuming a TBD close date is open-ended. Where the site lists TBD, check back — the window can be set later without a separate announcement reaching you.
- Confusing application close with match date. The Hull City application closes in August for a November match; the Sabah window closes in November for a January match. Plan around the application date, not the fixture date.
After You Apply
The site points members to a dedicated "Learn about the process" page under Secure Tickets for what happens once a request is submitted, and to an FAQs section for general questions. If your plans depend on a specific fixture, the safest approach is to apply as soon as the window opens and keep the confirmation, then treat the ballot outcome as the deciding factor rather than booking travel in advance.
