Hi everyone, I would love to get some advice from you guys. I live in Quebec, Canada, and my dream is to go to Anfield to attend a game. I thought about going to Liverpool anytime between January and May 2016, I don't really care which game to attend, just a home game in that period. I have found everything I need to know about the flight and the accommodation (would cost around 1000 pounds for both), the only problem is getting tickets for a game. I looked on the official LFC website, and if you pay for a membership, it seems you have an advantage in obtaining tickets. For non-members, tickets are put on sale 6 weeks before the fixture. So, is it worth paying for a membership to get a ticket or is it possible to get a ticket in the 6 weeks before a fixture and still be able to book a flight and a room in time? Would really love to get some advice on this!
Have a good one

The Member option would be my route, mate. If the team is doing well you'll never get the non-member sale. Looking at the time you want to come. You might be looking at a lot of Monday nights if you pick a big game.The last home game of the season,vs Watford would be my choice, as it Will be rocking if we're playing for something. The players do the lap at the end with their children, so the occasion will last longer. Anyway good luck. Come on you Reds.

Hi

I am from South Africa. I buy tickets from Thomas Cook. They specifically cater for international visitors wanting tickets for BPL games

Hope this helps

members still struggle to get tickets,your best bet is going for a hospitality package,that way at least you know you have guaranteed tickets in advance.

Don't quote me on this as I may be wrong, my dad sorts our tickets with our memberships so I'm not completely up to date. I think they work on a points kind of basis, so you gain 'points' from the tickets purchased from the previous season. Different games require different amounts of 'points' i.e United and Everton would be top bracket games so you'd need more points to apply for tickets for them. So I'm not sure if a membership would benefit you just for one game. Like I say I might be completely wrong, so you'd be best checking with the club.

I also have no idea how easy it would be to get tickets through general admission 6 weeks before as we use our memberships.

Failing these you could look at tickets through tour operators such as Thomas Cook, although you'll end up paying more.

Hope this helps! Good luck.

Hospitality tickets probably your best bet. Pricey but if you're prepared to pay flights etc anyway .

Unless you can get tickets for a cup game, it will be very difficult to get general sale, hardly ever happens. Hospitality is your best bet, though the Thomas Cook option sounds like it could be worth a shot

Buying a ticket face value is near impossible. Thomas cook is hugely over priced.
If you go on the lfc ticketing site and search for hospitality, you can buy the lower end hospitality tickets that include a match ticket and lunch or something for ~ 80 for cat c games.
