[Sports Today] Bucheon FC 1995, under the ownership of Mayor Jo Yong-ik, has unveiled a new ticketing strategy for their historic debut season in K League 1 in 2026. The club announced on February 10 that the changes aim to enhance fan experience and foster a more vibrant atmosphere in the stands.
For their inaugural K League 1 campaign, Bucheon has reimagined their stadium seating layout. The most notable change is the transformation of the 1995-seat section, previously split between general and supporter areas, into an all-standing terrace. This move is designed to cater to fans who want to maintain high energy throughout the match, creating a more electric and dynamic environment.
In a bid to diversify viewing options, Bucheon has introduced premium seating. The club has expanded its table seating, previously limited to two-person setups in the dynamic section, by adding new premium table options for two and four people in the W section. These upgraded seats come equipped with wireless chargers and cup holders, offering a more comfortable experience for families and groups of friends.
For the 2026 season, online ticket prices for general seating (dynamic and W sections) are set at 15,000 KRW (about 11 USD) for adults, 9,000 KRW (about 7 USD) for youth, and 5,000 KRW (about 4 USD) for children. The new all-standing “1995 section” will cost 16,000 KRW (about 12 USD) for adults, 10,000 KRW (about 8 USD) for youth, and 6,000 KRW (about 5 USD) for children. Away fans can purchase tickets at the same price as general seating. The newly introduced premium table seats are priced at 70,000 KRW (about 53 USD) for two people and 120,000 KRW (about 90 USD) for four, while the existing dynamic table seats remain at 50,000 KRW (about 38 USD) for two. All ticket types will incur a 1,000 KRW (about 1 USD) surcharge for on-site purchases.
The club will maintain its free admission policy from previous seasons. Seniors aged 65 and over and veterans are eligible for free entry, while individuals with severe disabilities (grades 1-3) and active military personnel can bring one guest at no cost. Free admission is limited to general home seating and requires proof of eligibility at the ticket booth. A 1,000 KRW (about 1 USD) booking fee applies to each free ticket.
Fans can take advantage of various discount offers through partner cards. The Chukdeok card provides discounts up to 5,000 KRW (about 4 USD) depending on the payment method, while Cultural Nuri cardholders can enjoy up to 40% off regular prices. Game iPlus cardholders and club shareholders also receive discounts on game-day purchases. Additionally, individuals with mild disabilities and their companions, as well as those accompanying spectators over 70, can purchase tickets for just 1,000 KRW (about 1 USD) each (plus the 1,000 KRW (about 1 USD) booking fee).
Group discounts are also available, with 30% off for groups of 20 or more and 40% off for groups of 30 plus. These can be arranged by contacting the club office up to three days before the match. As a bonus, group bookings will receive a special welcome message on the stadium’s big screen before kickoff or during halftime.
Ticket sales for the 2026 home games will begin with a pre-sale at 2 PM, five days before each match, followed by general sales at 2 PM, four days prior. For more details on the new ticketing policy, fans can visit the official Bucheon FC 1995 website.
