Brighton’s push for a first-ever appearance in continental group football moves into its final stage this week. The club has refreshed its ticket guidance for the second leg of the UEFA Conference League play-off. This update is current as of 17 September 2026 and sets out exactly who can buy what, and when, ahead of kick-off at the Amex.
## Play-Off Ticket Update: Current Amex Selling Criteria
Sales remain restricted to specific supporter groups rather than being open to the general public at this stage. Season ticket holders, 1901 Club members and MyAlbion+ members are being given priority access. That mirrors the club’s usual approach for high-demand European fixtures.
There have been conflicting reports over exactly when a wider general sale might follow. Read Brighton is not stating a fixed date for that stage. Supporters should check the club’s official channels directly before assuming any particular sale window has opened. For the background to this fixture, our original European ticket report covers how the pricing and priority windows were first announced.
## Play-off Fixture and Opponents Confirmed
Brighton will host the second leg of their Conference League play-off at the Amex on Thursday 27 August, with kick-off at 7.30pm. The opponent will be either Cluj of Romania or Tromso of Norway, with the tie decided across two legs.
Read Brighton is not confirming which of the two sides Albion will actually face until the outcome is officially settled. Supporters planning to attend should treat both possibilities as live until the club and UEFA confirm the final opponent.
## South Stand Changes and Ticket Pricing Details
Prices for the second leg have been set at £18 for adults, £14 for over-66s and under-21s, and £8 for under-18s. Those figures apply across the ground for this fixture, keeping the game accessible for younger and older supporters alike.
A reduced allocation for the visiting club’s fans means the Amex will operate a second home section for this match. That section is based in the South Stand. Inside it, the usual under-21 concession is being extended to under-24s, giving more young adult supporters access to the cheaper rate.
The club has explained the thinking behind the change to seating and pricing in an official statement: “We want to start laying the foundations for when the South Stand becomes mainly home fans from the start of the 2027-28 season, and part of this vision is to give a young, passionate generation of Albion fans a platform in a new area of the stadium, like never before.”
## Brighton Conference League Tickets: Purchase Rules and Guest Limits
The rules on who can buy Brighton Conference League tickets for this fixture are straightforward for eligible members. According to The Argus, season ticket holders, 1901 Club members and MyAlbion+ members can each buy a ticket. That covers themselves plus two registered friends or family.
That guest allowance applies per eligible member rather than per household. A family with more than one qualifying member could combine allowances between them. Guests still need to be registered against the member’s account in the usual way before tickets can be added to a basket. That is worth doing early, given the demand expected for a European night at the Amex.
The two-guest limit is designed to reward loyal members. It still gives them the flexibility to bring friends or family who do not hold a season ticket or membership themselves. It mirrors the approach Brighton have used for previous cup and European fixtures at the ground.
## What Happens Next for Albion European Supporters
The opponent is still to be finalised between Cluj and Tromso. The next confirmed step is the priority sale window for season ticket holders, 1901 Club and MyAlbion+ members. Supporters in those groups should keep an eye on official club communications for the exact timings. That reflects the uncertainty already noted around a broader general sale.
The South Stand changes for this fixture also point to a longer-term shift at the Amex. The club frames the new under-24 section as an early step towards the ground becoming a predominantly home stadium from 2027-28. That gives context to why this particular match carries changes beyond a standard one-off pricing adjustment.
