FA Cup Semi Finals 2027: Tickets, Dates and Wembley Coach Travel

The Emirates FA Cup semi-finals are played at Wembley Stadium on Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 April 2027. Each club receives roughly 30,000 tickets, so tens of thousands of fans head to north west London in a single weekend. For supporters' clubs, FA Cup semi final coach hire is the most reliable way to get a whole branch to Wembley and home again. The weekend also clashes with the two day London Marathon, so central London roads will be busier than usual. Planning your travel early matters more than ever.

How Much are FA Cup Semi Final Tickets?

Wembley uses four price categories for semi finals. In 2025, adult prices ran from £30 (Category 4) to £90 (Category 1), with concessions for juniors and seniors. Reports for the 2026/27 season put semi final adult prices between £30 and £120 (Goal). Exact 2027 semi final prices are announced once the semi finalists are known.

How to Get FA Cup Semi Final Tickets

1. Through your club only. Tickets are sold by each semi-finalist from its allocation, not by Wembley.
2. Priority goes to loyalty. Season ticket holders and members with the most away or cup loyalty points buy first.
3. Watch your club's website. Sales phases move fast, often within days of the quarter-final.
4. Avoid unofficial resale. Clubs cancel tickets sold on unauthorised sites.

Why Supporters' Clubs Choose Private Coach Hire

National Express runs official Wembley Express services, but a private coach gives your branch far more control:

• Your pick-up points. Leave from your local pub, club shop or several towns along the route.
• Official coach parking. Coaches use Wembley's dedicated coach parks, such as Green Coach Park (HA9 0TQ) and Pink Coach Park (HA9 0HX), a short walk from the stadium (Wembley Park).
• Your timings. Stop for food on the way, or arrive early to soak up the atmosphere on Wembley Way.
• Everyone home together. The coach waits for you after the match, including extra time and penalties.
• Cheaper than rail. Peak time trains to London for a weekend fixture are expensive; split the cost with 57 fans in one coach.

BusRoute books coach park access for your vehicle and plans routes around marathon weekend closures.

Coach and Minibus Sizes for Wembley

• 16 seat minibus hire for small groups and families.
• 33 seat midi coaches for smaller supporters' branches.
• 49–57 seat coach hire for big branches and fan groups.
• Multiple coaches for large supporters' clubs, with a single coordinator on the day.

Wembley Matchday Tips

• Wembley is a cashless venue and has a restricted bag policy; check Wembley Stadium before you travel.
• Alcohol is not permitted into Wembley; check your operator's on board policy.
• Note your coach park colour and coach number before you walk to the ground.
• Plan to leave 45–60 minutes after full time, when the coach park clears.
