Are tickets for Ireland v Portugal sold out?

The upshot

Tickets are still available, but the window is narrowing. Anyone waiting risks paying significantly more on the secondary market.

Current ticket availability status

  • Tickets are on general sale via Ticketmaster.ie, the official ticketing partner (Aviva Stadium directs buyers to Ticketmaster).
  • The Football Association of Ireland has indicated supply is limited, though exact remaining numbers are not published.
  • No registration or membership is required to purchase from the general allocation.

Official statement from FAI

  • Ireland Football posted on social media that tickets are on general sale with “a very limited number of tickets” remaining (Ireland Football Facebook page).

The implication: if you want face-value seats, act quickly. The secondary market will fill the gap, and prices will rise.

How to get Ireland vs Portugal tickets?

Buying from official sources

  • Official tickets are sold exclusively through Ticketmaster.ie and the FAI website (Aviva Stadium’s official guidance).
  • For Portugal fans, the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) offers a free fan club, Portugal+, that gives priority access to tickets for Portugal matches – including away fixtures (FPF official store).
  • Portugal+ members receive a promo code by email after registering, which can be used to buy up to 4 tickets with a 50% discount (FPF Portugal+ benefits page).

Secondary market options (Viagogo, SeatPick)

  • If official tickets are exhausted, resale marketplaces such as SeatPick and Viagogo offer tickets, but at a premium – typically €150 to €400 or more (SeatPick pricing overview).
  • Prices on SeatPick for this fixture range from €150 to over €400 (based on current listings).

Ticket limits and registration

  • General sale does not require advance registration; you can buy directly through Ticketmaster.ie without an account (though creating one speeds checkout).
  • Portugal+ members are limited to 4 discounted tickets per promo code (FPF Portugal+ terms).

The trade-off: official channels offer lower prices but limited availability; secondary markets guarantee a seat but at a steep markup. For Portuguese supporters, joining Portugal+ is the clear value move.

  1. Check official availability on Ticketmaster.ie.
  2. For Portuguese supporters, register for Portugal+ at the FPF store.
  3. If official tickets are sold out, compare secondary market prices on SeatPick or Viagogo.
  4. Purchase tickets early to avoid price increases.
TL;DR: For Irish fans, buy from Ticketmaster now. For Portugal fans, join Portugal+ for a 50% discount. If sold out, resale market is available but costly.

How much are Portugal football tickets?

Official ticket price ranges

  • The FAI has not published exact price bands for this match, but standard pricing for World Cup qualifiers at Aviva Stadium typically ranges from €30 to €80 for adults (using comparable fixtures as reference).
  • Hospitality packages, including premium seating and catering, are available at higher rates through Ticketmaster or the FAI.

Resale market price ranges

  • On SeatPick, current resale listings for Republic of Ireland vs Portugal start around €150 for standard seats and exceed €400 for prime locations (SeatPick live listings).
  • Viagogo prices are similar, with no tickets below €120 as of late March 2025 (Viagogo marketplace).
  • Portugal+ members can secure up to 4 tickets at 50% off the face value – a substantial saving compared to resale (FPF Portugal+ discount policy).

The pattern: official prices are opaque but likely fair; resale doubles or triples that. Registering for Portugal+ is the only known way to get a guaranteed discount.

Warning: Secondary market tickets are significantly more expensive. Buy from official sources if possible.

How & Where to Watch Ireland vs Portugal?

Live streaming options

  • If broadcast rights are secured by RTÉ, the match will be available to stream on the RTÉ Player.
  • UEFA.tv is a potential alternative if no Irish broadcaster picks up the match (no confirmation as of writing).

TV broadcast channels

  • RTÉ has not yet officially confirmed it will air the Republic of Ireland vs Portugal qualifier. The broadcaster typically secures rights for Ireland home matches, but this remains tentative.
  • For Portugal viewers, Sport TV (Portugal) usually carries national team away fixtures; check local listings closer to the date.

What this means: fans without tickets should monitor RTÉ and the FAI website for broadcast announcements. A confirmed streaming option may not emerge until weeks before the match.

Is Portugal vs Ireland on RTÉ?

Broadcast rights status

  • As of now, RTÉ has not announced a deal to televise this World Cup qualifier. The broadcaster’s contract with UEFA for Irish home qualifiers typically covers most matches, but official word is pending (RTÉ Sport).

Alternative streaming services

  • UEFA.tv may offer the match in select markets (check availability in Ireland).
  • For Irish fans abroad, streaming via the FAI’s own platform or UEFA’s service has been used in the past.

The catch: if RTÉ doesn’t broadcast, Irish viewers may have limited free-to-air options. A paid streaming service or a pub with satellite access might be the fallback.

Portugal+ is a free online platform that offers exclusive benefits to anyone who registers, including priority ticket access and discounts.

— Portuguese Football Federation (FPF official store)

For fans of both sides, the path to a seat is clear but time‑sensitive. Irish supporters should buy from Ticketmaster while the official allocation lasts. Portugal supporters should register for Portugal+ immediately to secure a 50% discount and priority access before the match sells out. Waiting means paying a steep premium on the secondary market – or missing the chance to see a historic World Cup qualifier live.
