Birmingham City are gearing up for life back in the Championship following their promotion from League One last campaign.

There is a lot of excitement around St. Andrews ahead of the 2025/26 Championship campaign, as many experts have tipped the Blues to be among the clubs fighting for promotion, due to their record-breaking League One season.

As witnessed at Birmingham last season under Chris Davies, they are building towards something, and fans will hope it is a return to the Premier League after their relegation in 2011.

Clubs expect a lot from fans for them to thrive; they ask for unwavering support, for people to go out and buy merchandise and kits regularly to help fund them—less so at the highest level with sponsorship deals—but fans can sometimes feel they are being asked to hand over their hard-earned cash to clubs just to feel connected to the club in a small part.

This has seen the price of many things from the club increase rapidly; however, Birmingham City may be bucking the trend, at least in one element.

Birmingham City have among the cheapest season tickets in the Championship

The Blues have among the cheapest season tickets in the Championship for the upcoming 2025/26 season, only being beaten in price by QPR.

Birmingham City are charging their fans £320, which is the cheapest the club are offering; however, it is only for fans renewing their ticket.

A fan in the same area of the stadium who is buying a new season ticket will need to spend £365 to get the same seat, so the Blues are rewarding loyal fans who have stuck by them.

The club may hope low prices like this help attract fans ahead of their promotion push to fill out the stadium and create an atmosphere similar to those experienced on the greatest European nights.

The full breakdown of Championship season tickets

Middlesbrough top the list for the most expensive season ticket, asking fans to pay £620 to be able to watch new manager Rob Edwards attempt to guide them towards the play-offs.

While the second most expensive season ticket is Sheffield Wednesday, who are asking fans to pay £575, which may seem like a tall order following the summer the club have had.

Meanwhile, the cheapest season ticket in the Championship came from QPR, who offered fans the chance to renew their tickets at the low price of £262, rewarding their loyal fans.
