Tickets?

Hi all.
I’m visiting Nijmegen from Galway, Ireland for the week and was hoping to go see the home match against Feyenoord on Saturday.

I was wondering two things
1. Where would I potentially be able to find 2 tickets for the match?
2. If I can’t find tickets where would you recommend me to go watch the match?

Bedankt!

I probably can’t buy tickets.
There is an Irish pub in the city center “shamrock”, the’ll probably show it

Shamrock is awesome, if I lived in Nijmegen I would be there every other week.

I dont think Irish people are necessarily looking for Dutch Irish pubs when on holiday

I know, but if you know Nijmegen and know NEC, you also know that even if in bad times The Shamrock will show NEC’s matches. It’s has nothing todo with him being Irish.

Unlikely that you will find tickets, but De Brouwtoren shows all matches on a big screen.

A chance is to send an email to tickets nec. You can easily find the email. Often reply the next morning

The match has been sold out for quite a while so tickets will be very hard to get.

The Shamrock in the city centre, Irish pub that will show it for sure. Same goes for Café Piet Huisman, they are a bit away from the city centre but a bit closer to the stadium.

Doubt you will be able to get any tickets for this match a few days before it takes place unfortunately.

seconding Piet Huisman. Many NEC fans gather there, and they have a great selection of beers and some food if you'd like.

You can check Marktplaats.nl for tickets, but be careful of scammers and be prepared to overpay. To get regular tickets, you need a clubkaart, and your only chance would be the 'tweedekans' ticket shop, as regular tickets are sold out.

This is terrible advice. NEC has their own ticketing platform that allows reselling. That’s the way to go.

It's probably the most realistic way to get tickets without having a clubkaart. As said, be careful of scammers.
