Jump the queue for European 2019 finals tickets

Wednesday 09 May 2018 Written by: Adam


Taking place over the weekend of 10-11 May 2019, Newcastle will be the host city for European Rugby’s biggest weekend, with three matches at two stadiums across the two days.

St James’ Park, the 52,000-capacity home of Newcastle United, will be the focus of the weekend when the ground, which has hosted both Rugby World Cup and Aviva Premiership Rugby matches, stages the European Challenge Cup final on the evening of Friday 10 May, followed by the Champions Cup climax on Saturday 11 May.

In between those two fixtures Newcastle Falcons’ Kingston Park Stadium will play host to the European Rugby Continental Shield on Saturday lunchtime, which will be contested by the two teams chasing qualification for the following season’s European Challenge Cup.

Falcons 2018/19 season ticket members will join season ticket holders at Newcastle United and European Professional Club Rugby (EPCR) members in being the first to be able to access tickets for the 2018/19 finals.

Ticket prices will be confirmed later this week and members of the three priority groups will be able to get to the front of the queue by way of an exclusive Golden Ticket.

Offering priority access to all price categories Golden Tickets will give fans the opportunity to see both St James’ Park finals from the same seat. As well as access to the best seats the Golden Ticket gives an overall discount of £10 off the total cost of the two tickets.

An exclusive benefit to early purchasers, Golden tickets will only be available to members of the three priority groups from Wednesday 9 May through to 10.00am on Tuesday 15 May. Individual tickets to either final are not available during this period.
