FINAL tickets have always been gold dust for gaelic football fans, especially if you’re from Armagh and haven’t gotten to a final in 19 years.

This year’s final is no different, with the process of securing tickets for the biggest day in the gaelic football calendar a tricky one with a few avenues to try.

Armagh will face Galway in this year’s final after beating Kerry and Donegal respectively in dramatic fashion to set up a thrilling encounter between two sides well known to each other.

Croke Park is expected to sell out for the game, with thousands set to make the trip south of the border from the Orchard County to cheer on the boys in orange and white.

Armagh clubs are set to receive 240 tickets each for the All-Ireland final.

The first port of call for fans across the country should be their local club to see how they intend to distribute their allocated tickets.

Failing that, if you are a GAA season ticket holder and purchased for at least six of your county’s championship games, then you will have All-Ireland final tickets waiting in your basket and must pay for them to secure them.

Tickets for the final have increased this season with Stand tickets now costing £85 (€100), an increase of €10 from 2023 and Hill 16 tickets are £46 (€55), an increase of five euros from last year.
