Adults £30, U16's £20, 16-21 (proof of age required £20, Senior Citizen £20, Ambulant Disabled £20 (carer free). Two wheelchair disabled tickets £15 each carer free.

Due to the police considering Coventry City supporters to be a risk and QPR's Italian bosses trying to induce every penny they can out of anyone entering their stadium, City supporters will not be given the cheaper lower tier.

According to City's website, QPR have advised that "All away fans are advised to arrive inside the ground at least 30 minutes prior to kick-off in order to guarantee entry."
