Tickets for West Ham matches are often in high demand, but there are a number of online resources that give you a good chance of landing a seat at London Stadium.

While West Ham have been a well-established Premier League club for a number of years, they have never made a sustained challenge for the title, though in recent years have made significant progress and started qualifying for European competitions. This means that anyone looking to attend a West Ham game will often have the choice of domestic league and cup, as well as often-glamorous European fixtures, to pick from.
If you’re planning a visit to the UK, and want to know if West Ham are playing at London Stadium during your dates of travel, you can view fixture lists for the season online. While general sale tickets can be bought directly through the website, if these are sold out there are also a number of online options for securing yourself a seat for a West Ham home game. We’ve looked into them and listed our two favourites below.
Live Football Tickets
Serving football fans for over 13 years, Live Football Tickets have gained an exceptional reputation for their service and are our number one pick for buying West Ham tickets online. While their add-on fees such as shipping can be a fair bit higher than their competitors, our research suggests they offer a substantially bigger selection of tickets for many games. One major advantage for families or groups of friends is that the website often provides the option of buying four tickets in one go, with the seats all next to each other. During our search for West Ham games for the remainder of the current season, tickets were available for all home fixtures, with prices beginning at around £30 for less prestigious games. The site also offers a “150%” money-back guarantee if you don’t receive your tickets in time, can’t access the stadium, or if a game is cancelled and not rescheduled.
Ticketgum
Our other recommendation is Ticketgum, who buy tickets from club members before reselling them online. While prices can sometimes be very high, it’s a reliable option, as Ticketgum officially own the tickets meaning any liability of fakes falls on them. Based on our searches, there also seems to be availability for almost every West Ham home game. Prices do tend to fluctuate, and the closer to a game the steeper they are likely to be – although last-minute tickets often reverse that trend. For upcoming games against Wolves and Newcastle, we found tickets starting at around £60. After purchasing your tickets, they’re sent by express delivery to your preferred address. Other benefits are a 100% money-back guarantee in the event of a cancelled game.
