Viking FK Sound Alarm Over Illegal Europa Pass Ticket Resales
Viking FK have put supporters on notice over the unauthorised resale of Europa Pass tickets ahead of European matches at Lyse Arena. The club warns that passes are being broken up and sold as individual tickets at heavily inflated prices, and is urging fans to use only official channels.
A Warning From the Club
Viking FK has issued an urgent public notice regarding the illegal resale of Europa Pass tickets ahead of forthcoming European fixtures at Lyse Arena. The club has been made aware that a number of Europa Pass holders are selling their passes on to third parties as individual match tickets — at prices significantly above both the regular face value for the match and the original cost of the full pass itself.
The club is taking the matter seriously, and supporters are strongly advised to purchase tickets exclusively through Viking FK's official channels to guarantee entry and avoid being caught out by inflated resale prices.
What Is the Europa Pass?
The Europa Pass is a season-long ticket product offered by Viking FK that grants holders access to the club's home European fixtures at Lyse Arena. With Viking competing in the UEFA Champions League in 2026–27, demand for European nights in Stavanger has soared — and so, unfortunately, has the temptation for some pass holders to profit from that demand illegally.
Viking FK has made clear that this practice violates the terms and conditions attached to the pass and urged the supporter community to act with integrity. The club is monitoring the situation and has not ruled out further action against those found to be in breach.
Title Run-In Adds to the Excitement
The ticketing warning comes at a moment when interest in Viking FK is at a peak. The club sits second in the Eliteserien and hosts Lillestrøm in what promises to be a title showdown at Lyse Arena on September 20. The combination of a domestic title race and a maiden Champions League campaign has created extraordinary demand for seats — making vigilance around ticket purchases more important than ever for genuine supporters.
