Lyon
€10–€60rough guide from fan sites, not official: check the club's site
✅ Open sale
When: Season-ticket holders and members get a presale, then general sale on billetterie.ol.fr; prices depend on opponent and seat.
Guide range for regular games; big games (PSG, OM) start around €40-65.
Buy on the official Lyon site🏆 European games ✅ Public sale
How: Per the club's 2026-27 subscription article (via search extract; page itself loaded empty), European games are sold as single tickets 'subject to availability' to all supporters once the subscription window closed (no Europe pack this year), with purchase priority and reduced prices for 'Integral' subscribers; numbers are described as limited. The ticket shop is behind a Queue-it waiting room so I could not read match pages or find a public opening date. Remaining league-phase home games per the club calendar include Lillestrom 26 Nov, Union Saint-Gilloise 10 Dec and Leverkusen 28 Jan (note: your list gives 26 Nov, 10 Dec, 28 Jan).
No current price found; Queue-it blocked billetterie.ol.fr. Older seasons' listings started around EUR 13 but not used.
European tickets on the official Lyon siteEuropean tickets are sold game by game, often early, in packages or only to registered fans, and many are sold out by now.
📅 Add Lyon's games and sale reminders to your calendar (a feed that updates itself).
The 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.
Want it all sorted?
Hospitality means a guaranteed seat with food and drink, and it's the legal way to a sure ticket for a big game.
Lyon: official hospitality from about €215 a person, sold by the club or its authorised agents.
