As AFC Bournemouth’s official higher education partner, we’re running a ballot throughout the 2023-24 season to give BU students the opportunity to buy two tickets for each of the AFCB home games.
Enter the ballot to be in with the chance to buy one of eight pairs of tickets for the AFCB home game against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday 21 October.
The student rate for tickets will apply, with tickets ranging from £18 - £26 each (depending on the team playing). Ticket prices for each match can be found on the AFC Bournemouth website.
How to enter the ballots
You can apply for all games but will need to enter each of the ballots individually. If you think you're eligible, apply for by emailing [email protected]. Please include the full name, phone number, course name and the student ID number of both students claiming the pair of tickets.
Only current BU students can apply and will need to produce their BU student ID card to collect the tickets after purchase. If you are successful, you will be notified by email at least a week before the match, when you will be provided with details on how to pay for and collect your tickets on the day of the match.
Successful applicants are reminded that you are representing both yourself and BU while attending the match, so behaviour must be appropriate while you help cheer on the Cherries! Please be aware that supporters of the opposite team won’t be eligible to apply and match checks will be carried out to ensure there is no misuse of the tickets.
Fixture information
The ballot for each match opens at 9am on the opening date and closes at 2pm on the closing date. Entries received after 2pm on the ballot closing date will not be valid.
