The story · English

Beitar Jerusalem said on Thursday that season tickets for its Golden Gate stand will cost NIS 3,750 after a meeting between owner Barak Abramov, CEO Kfir Adri and fan representatives who sit in the stand.

Holders of a Beitar fan card will receive a 5% discount, since the card is tied to club membership. The club said supporters who join will also receive a parking permit and organized access to their designated area.

The price agreement is meant to support a better, respectful, and orderly matchday experience. Beitar added that the pricing issue will be reviewed again before next season, depending on the process and framework that are built together.
