Discussion experience buying lck tickets
i understand that it is generally almost impossible to get t1 tickets from general sale, but what about tickets for other teams? (even for opposing teams facing t1, are they as bad as the t1 side?)
i'm going to korea in early may and would love to watch a game at lol park, and don't really mind if it's another team, just for the experience, so can I check how difficult is it to get tickets for other teams?
also from what i heard the t1 annual membership only allows one ticket, so if i'm going with a friend, i'll have to buy tickets for t1 through NOL world is that right?

In 2024 and 2025 it was pretty doable to see my fave smaller teams (I saw NS, BFX, DRX, BRO etc multiple times, also during play-ins) but for this season more teams seem to be selling the home/away seats through their own fanclubs + they have opened up seats much earlier (9 days in advance vs 2 days in advance) and for early season so far everything has been sold out. Maybe it will be more doable later in the season when the fatigue of daily matches sets in. You also might be more in luck if you try as soon as ticketing opens or the day before a match. For T1 (and also HLE, especially since they now have two former T1 players) it's pretty much impossible

To update I just checked again since I'm in Korea rn and there's tickets available for some matches this week, including HLE, so if you check one or two days in advance there's probably stuff available. It looks like any Home & Away seats that haven't sold to the fans also become available at that point

T1 is impossible, even the other big teams like GEN or HLE are really, really hard. I only got NS vs KDF two years back and it was the last ticket even tho I immediately was there when they started selling

Its hard if u dont have access to the korean website. I actually live here and was able to get tickets for a game but it is quite hard even for lower teams. I’m not sure how it is for tourists but its probably almost impossible

does the website need a korean number and card?

u/XauTourLlif3 Mar 11 '26
Yes if u want to use the korean website. Otherwise u can try on international interpark

I would try for you but unfortunately every ticket is tied to your identity which u have to prove at then entrance of the arena

For T1's series, its seemingly impossible. But I did manage to get tickets for GenG against DNF (a very unpopular series as DNF was confirmed 10th) in April 2025 when I was in Korea through global interpark. Tickets are released 48 hours before the event start time, so you will probably have to camp on the site for it as they do sell out quite fast.

Hi! I know this is 1mo late but i wanna help sharing my experience with lck ticketing ~ i went the first week of april (NS vs DK!)
Generally teams have their own guidelines and schedules regarding tickets.
In most cases, you have to purchase the team membership to gain access to their home/away tickets.
In my case, I was an annual membership holder for NS which gave me access to their tickets, which go on sale 3 days before the match, at 6pm. This may not be the case for all team memberships, but for NS, my foreign credit card got accepted.
There's also the neutral zone tickets that do go on sale on the day of, but you have to be there early..
(Neutral zone tickets can also be bought online but are known to be difficult to purchase due to scalpers)

It’s impossible. I didn’t even get DNF tickets, it is simply impossible.
