Season Ticket Holders can now secure their seats for next season’s European and domestic cup matches at St. James’ Park through our popular Cup Schemes.

The UEFA Champions League returns to St. James’ Park with four guaranteed home matches in the League Phase. We’ll also defend our Carabao Cup title and compete in the FA Cup.

THREE SEPARATE SCHEMES

Season Ticket Holders can choose to join up to three separate schemes, guaranteeing their seat at every special cup moment at St. James’ Park:

  • UEFA Champions League, League Phase (former group stage) 

  • FA Cup  

  • Carabao Cup (EFL Cup) 

2025/26 Season Ticket Holders can choose to enrol in one, two, or all three schemes, depending on their preferences and which competitions they wish to follow closely.

Each Cup Scheme must be enrolled into separately.

Season Ticket Holders will need to store card details against each of the Cup Schemes.
