Tickets for the Premier League Summer Series are selling fast - and the match between Brighton & Hove Albion and Newcastle United on Friday 28 July at Red Bull Arena, New Jersey, is the first to sell out.
The tournament offers US fans an opportunity to watch a world-class line-up of Premier League players from Aston Villa, Brentford, Brighton, Chelsea, Fulham and Newcastle in action across five major East Coast cities this July.
There are limited tickets still available for the remaining matches from just US$30* at premierleague.com/summerseries.
The six teams will compete in a total of nine matches between Saturday 22 July and Sunday 30 July at stadiums in Atlanta, GA, Harrison, NJ, Orlando, FL, Philadelphia, PA and Landover, MD.
Fans who attend the double-headers in Philadelphia, Atlanta and Maryland will be able to watch both matches with one ticket, with prices starting from only US$40*.
"We have seen a terrific response from US-based fans"
“With just over a month to go until the Premier League Summer Series," said Premier League Chief Executive, Richard Masters. "I have no doubt this is going to be a memorable tournament for them, the League and the clubs taking part.
“We have a range of family-friendly activity lined up in each of the host cities alongside the matches and can’t wait to come out there in July to bring an exciting Premier League experience to as many fans as possible.”
Paul Barber, deputy chair and chief executive at Brighton, added, "It’s more than five weeks before we play Newcastle and to hear that the game is already sold out is brilliant news.
"We’re really looking forward to showcasing our club and the League to such passionate and engaged supporters next month."
This announcement comes shortly after the Premier League fixtures for the 2023/24 season were revealed. The opening weekend of the new campaign sees Newcastle face Aston Villa, in a repeat of their Premier League Summer Series fixture in Philadelphia on Sunday 23 July.

As well as high-profile matches and pre-season training camps, activity is planned in each host city to create a programme of community and youth soccer initiatives.
