Aviva Stadium, UEFA Nations League 2026. The Irish Times (11 Nov 2026) says adult tickets for Ireland v Kosovo (17 Nov) start from EUR 60 (U16 EUR 30). An earlier note gave EUR 50 for Austria in October, and a Dublin tourism listing says EUR 30; neither is trusted. FAI sale page is on Ticketmaster; no category table found. Top price not found.
Buy on the official Republic of Ireland siteThe labels: ✅ Open sale = ordinary league games reach general sale · 🟡 Rules vary = members go first, some games reach general sale · 💳 Members only = a club card or membership is effectively needed · 🪪 = named tickets. They describe the club's usual league games, not one particular match: derbies and big games can be much harder.
Only buy from the club or its official partners. Unofficial resale sites charge far more and tickets can be cancelled at the gate. Prices are a guide and change by opponent; the club's site has the real price.
