Players come and go, times change, managers and coaches come and go, but if there’s one sector that hasn’t changed over the years at Paris Saint-Germain, it’s the ticket. This season, like all the others, the sale of tickets for the club’s home games, at the Parc des Princes, should be one of the biggest satisfactions for the club.

However, there is a reason to fear a slight decrease in enthusiasm with the departure of Kylian Mbappé, the last “hero” of the team following those, last season, of Neymar, Lionel Messi or Sergio Ramos. Although ticket and box sales at the Park may have changed in recent times after the arrivals of certain stars, especially Neymar and Mbappé and then Messi, their departure does not seem to have had the opposite effect. None more so than Kylian Mbappé.

98% of subscribers renew their subscription

On the side, we stated that at the general ticket level, 98% of the 36,000 subscribers have renewed their subscription for this season. That’s like 2022, the year of… Mbappé’s extension.

They filled almost 75% of the stadium’s total capacity (48,500), where only 7,000 tickets were released to the public for the match. Since 2017, PSG has played 140 consecutive matches at home and even if there are still a few tickets on sale on the club’s official website, the managers are sure that the match against Montpellier will still be sold out.

The same trust about 40 boxes and VIP spaces that are rented every year by the club. An important source of income for the football club, which each season causes a comfortable financial collapse from the attendance at its stadium. Here again, the lights are green, we have confirmation from PSG: the change of “guest” registrations is “increased” on the eve of the first game of the season, so it is higher than the last time in the same period.

In 2022-2023, PSG’s revenue for match days is estimated at 153 million euros, an increase of about twenty million compared to the previous season. If the figures from last season have not been made clear, it is clear that the desire of the football club to continue this effort, within the limit imposed on them by the power of the Parc des Princes… a completely different subject.
