The opening tranche of season tickets went on sale on Monday morning as excitement grows for summer of transition
Season tickets for Everton’s iconic new stadium are now on sale, marking the latest milestone in the countdown to the club’s move.
The sales process was launched at 10am on Monday, with the first tranche of tickets being made available to supporters who have held season tickets for 23 years or more.
The next window, for those with at least 19 years’ tenure, will open on Wednesday, January 22, in a staggered scheme set to continue into March.

Details of how the sales would unfold were revealed in October after extensive work to plan for the migration from Goodison Park to the Liverpool waterfront.
With Everton Stadium set to hold 52,888 spectators, and host no obstructed views, there is confidence supporters will be able to find season tickets that suit them, whichever sales window they fall into.
The first sales are the latest major event as the club builds towards a move that could help to change the Blues’ fortunes on and off the pitch. The keys to the state-of-the-art ground were given to Everton in a ceremonial handover days before Christmas – and days after another pivotal moment in the club’s history, the takeover by The Friedkin Group (TFG).
Following the completion of the construction phase by Laing O’Rourke, the club is now working to fit out the ground, while TFG are exploring commercial opportunities surrounding the move, including a stadium naming rights deal.
Next Monday, work is set to begin on the Everton Way, a pathway outside the South Stand that will be lined with commemorative stones displaying messages from supporters. Next month, the first test event will be held at the stadium with Everton Under-18s set to play before 10,000 fans on Monday, February 17.
Season ticket sales details, including an FAQ over the process, are available on the club’s website, here.
