All the information on our 2024/25 Season Cards can be found below.
PRICES
Season Cards are available to purchase from £200 – which equals just £8.70 per game.
Prices have risen for the first time in four years, but still offer fantastic value for a 23-match season.
Throughout the years, the Club have endeavoured to keep Season Card prices as low as possible to the benefit of our fantastic, loyal fanbase. Despite this year’s rise, our prices are still amongst the cheapest in the National League and local area.
The increase in this year’s prices will see an increase in revenue which will help us as we strive to become sustainable.
This income is vital to the running of the Club. However, we are keen to still provide superb value for our supporters, which we believe our Season Cards offer.
Prices are as follows:
| Adults (22+) | Senior (65+over) | Young Persons (21 & under) | Junior (Under-14s) | Exiles Season Card | |
| Sandy Lane Standing Terrace | £200 | £170 | £90 | £30 | £120 |
| Smith Metals Family Stand | £275 | £230 | £90 | £30 | £150 |
| David Kilpatrick Main Stand | £350 | £300 | £100 | £40 | £180 |
DIGITAL SEASON CARDS
For the 2024/25 campaign, supporters will be able to use the Rochdale AFC Mobile Digital Ticketing App.
This will allow supporters to scan their phones at the turnstiles to gain entry to the stadium.
This includes Season Card holders, with their Digital Season Card being held in the app.
We are encouraging all supporters to use this feature, saving on printing costs, reducing purchase time, and avoiding the loss of tickets/cards.
Further information, including how to download and use the app, can be found HERE.
Physical Season Cards will still be available to supporters, but a £5 administration charge will be applied at the time of purchase.
ON SALE DATES
Season Cards will go on sale at 9am on Monday 20th May.
Existing Season Card holders will have a priority window to renew their current seat, which will be lifted at 9am on Monday 10th June.
After this time, Season Cards will go on general sale, and all existing reserved seats will be lifted.
HOW TO BUY
Season Cards are available to purchase online, in-person at the Crown Oil Arena, or over the phone on 01706644648 (option one).
When purchasing online, existing Season Card holders will require the barcode from their 2023/24 card to log-in to the ticketing system. This will pull through your details and existing seat to renew.
FINANCE
Supporters can spread the cost of their Season Card with a finance package from Premium Credit.
Payments will be taken in four monthly instalments. Further information on how to apply will be available in due course.
Please note, Premium Credit Finance is only available to persons aged 18-and-over and is subject to credit approval.
COLLECTION/POSTAGE
If you have purchased a physical Season Card and require this to be posted to your chosen address, this will cost £7.25, plus the £5 charge for a physical card detailed above.
Details on how and when to collect your Season Cards will be confirmed in due course.
EXECUTIVE SEASON CARD
Existing supporters who hold an Executive Season Card will be contacted separately regarding their renewal.
Further details on how these can be purchased, along with seasonal hospitality packages, will be confirmed in due course.
JUNIOR SEASON CARDS
To qualify for a Junior Season Card, youngsters must be aged 13 on 1st September 2024 (i.e., in Year 9 or below of secondary school). Proof of age may be required at the time of purchase.
They are only available when purchasing an Adult/Senior Season Card. Sales in the Main Stand are restricted to 100, so please purchase early to avoid disappointment. A maximum of six Junior Season Cards can be purchased with every Adult Season Card.
These can be purchased online, over the phone and in-person at the Dale Ticket Office.
SEATS FOR SCHOOLS
We’re pleased to confirm that our successful Seats For Schools initiative will continue for the 2024/25 season.
Full details will be confirmed in due course.
EXILES SEASON CARD
An Exiles Season Card allows access to ten home league matches of their choice, starting from just £120.
Supporters can choose their allotted seat for the 2023/24 campaign.
They are available to those living beyond 50 miles of the Crown Oil Arena.
Supporters will be required to provide proof of address on purchase. Please note, Exiles Season Cards are only available to purchase in-person or over the phone.
Existing Exile Season Card holders can renew in the priority window detailed above.
DISABLED SUPPORTERS
Disabled supporters pay the relevant price band with their carer free of charge.
Disabled pricing applies to supporters who are in receipt of the higher rate of Disability Living Allowance or enhanced rate of PIP. Documented evidence will be required at the time of purchase.
Carers of supporters with a higher rate of DLA or enhanced rate of PIP will be issued with a free carer card.
Please contact the Ticket Office, either in-person or over the phone, to purchase. These are not available online.
AWAY GAME / CUP PRIORITY
Where possible and when required, Season Card holders will have priority on purchasing tickets for away matches and cup ties.
Some National League clubs only offer away tickets via their online platforms, in which case we cannot offer priority.
However, in cases we identify as requiring a priority window, we will endeavour to offer this. This will be communicated on a game-by-game basis.
YOUR CARD
Your Card will once again offer a perfect alternative to a Season Card, for supporters who can’t make it all home league matches.
Purchased at £25, it continues to offer £5 off matchday admission prices. These will be available to buy online, as well as in-person or over the phone.
MATCHDAY PRICES
Matchday ticket prices for the 2024/25 campaign will also remain the same as last season.
Click HERE for full details on prices.
LOST TICKETS
In recent seasons, we have seen an increase in the number of Season Card holders who have lost or forgotten their card on a matchday, requiring a replacement ticket to be printed.
From the 2024/25 season onwards, supporters who have lost or forgotten their physical Season Card will be charged the price of a match ticket for their relevant stand/age band. This will then be refunded in the days following a match, once analysis has been undertaken to ensure the Season Card has not been scanned.
Supporters who lose their Season Card and require a new one will be charged £15, and their previous card will be cancelled. However, this will not be actioned on a matchday.
STAND SWAPPING
Season Card holders do have the option of swapping stands for most matchdays at the Crown Oil Arena.
From the 2024/25 season, there will be a blanket £10 fee per match to do so, regardless of which stands you are swapping between.
