Are tickets for Ireland vs Portugal sold out?
How to check ticket availability
- The Football Association of Ireland (FAI) confirmed on its official Facebook page that tickets for the home match at Aviva Stadium are on general sale.
- As of now, tickets remain available through Ticketmaster and the FAI portal.
Official ticket outlet updates
- The official ticket seller list is maintained on the Aviva Stadium event page.
- Away match tickets for Portugal vs Ireland are available through the Portuguese federation or via resellers like Biletwise.
The pattern: official channels still have inventory for the Dublin game, but away tickets require more legwork. The implication: act quickly for the home leg, especially as match day approaches.
How to get Ireland vs Portugal tickets?
Official FAI ticket portal
- Direct tickets can be purchased from FAI.ie/tickets (official federation portal).
Ticketmaster
- Republic of Ireland football tickets are listed on Ticketmaster.ie, the authorised primary seller.
Authorized resellers like SeatPick
- Comparison platform SeatPick aggregates inventory from multiple resellers, letting you compare prices. Average Portugal tickets on SeatPick run $682, with entry-level prices from $27. (Note: these are resale figures, not face value.)
Away match tickets
- Away tickets are sold via the Portuguese federation or through Biletwise, a European ticket marketplace.
- Reseller FootballTicketNet guarantees delivery 1-2 days before the match.
The trade-off: official channels give you face-price certainty; resellers offer backup if sold out but at a premium. For the away leg, plan ahead and expect higher prices.
Away match tickets are not yet available through the FAI. Irish fans will need to buy directly from Portuguese sources or trusted resellers — and prices will likely exceed the home face value. Budget accordingly.
Where can I watch Portugal vs Ireland?
TV broadcasters in Ireland (RTÉ)
- RTÉ holds the broadcast rights in Ireland for the match, though an official confirmation with kick-off has not yet been published.
International streaming options
- For viewers outside Ireland, Sports Illustrated provides streaming and TV information tailored to US audiences. Other international channels will carry the game; local listings will be updated closer to match week.
Why this matters: if you can’t get a ticket, TV and streaming still get you the action. For US-based fans, Sports Illustrated’s guide is a reliable starting point.
When is the Portugal vs Ireland match?
Home match date and time
- The Republic of Ireland vs Portugal match is on 13 November 2025 at Aviva Stadium, kick-off 19:45 local time (Aviva Stadium).
Away match date and time
- The away fixture in Lisbon takes place on 11 October 2025 at José Alvalade Stadium, kick-off 19:45 local time (Biletwise).
One pattern, two venues: both legs kick off at the same evening slot, making travel planning easier. The implication: fans booking flights for Lisbon can aim for a weekend stay around 11 October.
How much do Portugal vs Ireland tickets cost?
Official ticket prices
- Official face-value prices set by the FAI have not yet been announced. Historically, World Cup qualifier tickets at the Aviva range from €30–€80 for adults, but exact pricing for this fixture is pending.
Resale market prices
- On resale platforms, prices vary. SeatPick lists Portugal national team tickets from $27 up to an average of $682 (SeatPick). For the home leg, reseller listings on FootballTicketNet and similar sites are already appearing.
Price ranges on SeatPick
- SeatPick currently shows 33,561 Portugal national team tickets available across all upcoming events, giving a sense of the secondary market scale (SeatPick).
The pattern: official prices will be a fraction of resale. The catch: if the home match sells out, you’ll be paying a premium on the secondary market. Buy early from official channels to avoid the mark-up.
How to Secure Your Tickets: Step-by-Step
- Check official sources first — Go to FAI.ie/tickets or Ticketmaster.ie for the home match. For the away leg, monitor the Portuguese federation’s ticket portal.
- Compare resale platforms — Use price aggregators like SeatPick or FootballTicketNet if official tickets are sold out.
- Verify authenticity — Stick to platforms that guarantee delivery, such as those offering buyer protection (KarloBag advises checking verified seller badges).
- Download your mobile ticket — Electronic tickets for the Aviva Stadium are delivered via email or the venue’s app (KarloBag).
- Plan your match-day arrival — Aviva Stadium is cashless and bans bags larger than a small handbag (Aviva Stadium).
The takeaway: official channels remain the surest path, but resale platforms offer a backup when sold out.

What remains unclear
- Exact official ticket prices (still unconfirmed)

The balance: confirmed facts give a solid foundation, but uncertainties around pricing and broadcasters require fans to stay updated.
Irish fans have a clear path to the home match via official channels, but away tickets require navigating foreign portals or paying resale prices. For anyone planning travel, the 11 October date in Lisbon means making decisions soon.

Frequently asked questions
Can I buy tickets on the day of the match?

Official tickets from FAI/Ticketmaster are generally non-refundable unless the match is rescheduled or cancelled. Resale platforms have their own policies — review carefully before buying.
Can I resell my ticket if I cannot attend?
Official tickets are usually non-transferable or only transferable via the official app. Reselling on secondary marketplaces may be possible but violates FAI terms. Check the original ticket terms.
