Wanderers have sold more than 15,000 season tickets for 2024/25 during the Early Bird window, the club has confirmed.

The total is nearly 1,000 higher than at this stage last year, including more than 1,500 brand new holders.

An official statement read: “The 2024/25 Early Bird season ticket window closed earlier this week with the final number of sales reaching a phenomenal 15,337. 

“Launched in early February, the Early Bird window offered Wanderers’ supporters the chance to secure a seat for the upcoming season at great value prices.

“The final total has exceeded last season’s Early Bird sales by 979. There were 13,829 renewals and 1,508 brand new season ticket holders brought on board. 

“The club are also incredibly proud that of that number, 4,040 are 2024/25 season ticket holders aged just 18 and under.”

Chief executive Neil Hart hailed the support and is delighted to see more fans signing up for season tickets.

He said: “Once again, we have been blown away by the outstanding show of support from Wanderers’ fans during this latest Early Bird window. 

“Our thanks go every supporter who has chosen to once get behind the efforts of the club and we also welcome the 1,500 fans who are new or returning Bolton Wanderers season ticket holders. 

“As ever, our thanks also go to Bolton Wanderers Supporters’ Trust for their valued collaboration during the pricing process and to the club staff, particularly those in the ticket office, who have worked so hard these past few months to deliver another very successful Early Bird campaign.”
