🏆 European games: dates and times are UEFA's (read from Wikipedia); the knockout rounds appear once the draws are made. European tickets are sold differently from league ones.
This club's league fixtures are not in our free data, so only its European games are listed.

When: League tickets are sold online only (AEK's Ticketmaster.gr shop), usually a few days before each match. Buying or holding the AEK fan card ('AEK Passport' 2026-27) is mandatory. Entry requires activating the ticket in the Gov.gr Wallet app.
No 2026-27 league per-gate prices could be read: AEK's announcements were blocked and the Ticketmaster page queued. For reference only: the Mar 2025 derby v Olympiacos was from €25, and the Apr 2025 play-off v Olympiacos was €20-€185. The stadium is now branded Allwyn Arena (formerly OPAP Arena).
Buy on the official AEK Athens site🏆 European games 🟡 Rules vary
How: aekfc.gr returned 403, so this comes only from search results of AEK's own news pages. Season-ticket holders could buy a League Phase Pass for all four home games; after its deadline the rest went into free (open) sale (announced 7 Oct for the Real Madrid game on 4 Nov, which sold out). Greek rules apply: a fan card and entry via the Gov.gr Wallet app (passport route for foreigners in the national system), so a visitor needs to be set up before the release. Remaining home games: 8 Dec Galatasaray, 19 Jan.

European tickets on the official AEK Athens siteEuropean tickets are sold game by game, often early, in packages or only to registered fans, and many are sold out by now.
📅 Add AEK Athens'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.
