The Premier League clubs have come to a decision on digital ticketing.
They have voted to make it mandatory for all PL clubs as from the 2026/27 season.
Promoted clubs will be allowed two years to bring in digital ticketing.
The Premier League announcement (see below) means that all Newcastle United fans will have to use digital ticketing apart from, as is already the case, certain exceptions – ‘Clubs will retain some discretion to make some tickets available in other formats to supporters who have reasonable grounds to request them. This may include supporters who have a disability that makes the purchase or use of digital tickets challenging.’
