It’s confirmed! The 2026 Women’s League Cup Final between Chelsea and Manchester United will kick off at Bristol City’s Ashton Gate Stadium. The WSL champions will play in a record seventh consecutive final, while United are in the final for the first time in their history.
Chelsea confirmed their place in the final with a 1-0 win over Manchester City at the Joie Stadium on Wednesday, January 22. That very same night, Manchester United beat Arsenal at Meadow Park that same night. They’ll now face each other on Sunday, March 15, for what will be an exciting Mother’s Day.
How do I get tickets?
Chelsea fans have been allocated the South Stand at Ashton Gate, with Manchester United fans in the Atyeo Stand. But fans of both clubs and neutrals are welcome in the Dolman Stand, with tickets already available for this section—starting from just £15 for adults and £5 for under-18s.
Tickets for Chelsea Women season ticket holders go on sale on Tuesday, January, 27 at 2pm, with a general sale on Wednesday, January 28 at 2pm. A ballot is now open to Manchester United Women Season Ticket holders, until 8am on Thursday, January 29.
What about drinking alcohol?
Part of the WSL Football’s Fan Choice pilot, for the first time, fans will be able to consume alcohol in the stands for the Final, with Block E32 in the Dolman Stand being designated as an alcohol-free area. So far, after 100 games, the pilot has recorded no reported incidents or ejections.
The Women’s League Cup Final will kick off at 2.15pm and will be broadcast live on BBC One and Sky Sports, with tickets available here.
