    I'm thinking of heading to Manchester this March to go watch a United match. This would be my first time at Old Trafford and I want to do everything. See the Museum, do the stadium tour, go to the megastore, and now get my picture with Dennis, Bobby and George :). Anyways I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on the easiest ways to get tickets (4 people) I heard something about a hotel package?. As well as any other related suggestions.

    Really appreciate the help!

    I am hoping to take the tour in June and I'll probaly have to buy the tickets over the United site which is what you should do!

    you should save your money and go during the season. it's just not the same going in the off season (June).

    I know you can get tickets on manutd.com for pre-season matches but will it be hard to get PL tickets on there. I'm not a OU member...

    I was thinking of going in March. The only home game in march is Liverpool, would it be impossible to get tickets to this match at face value. And if they are higher than face value how much more would I likely have to pay?

    I bought tickets thru manutd.com tickets & travel. Everything worked out fine; the tickets were waiting for me when I got to Old Trafford. They're rather expensive (alright! horribly expensive!) and you sit in the 2nd tier over the goal opposite where the players come in. I went in early August (Reading game last year) so I didn't have time to try OneUnited.

    I just checked. It doesn't look like tickets for the season are on sale yet. I think they went on sale mid-July last year, and the spring tickets didn't go on sale for a while after that.

    Also -- did you try Man Utd USA? They did a tour that had games in it and I think last year they went to the Liverpool game.

    leafdolfan just sent you a private message. I'm with ManUtdUSA and we're carving out details for a trip to the liverpool match (march 14th) which should work perfectly for you. also, looks as if you're from canada and don't worry, we've taken both americans and canadians on these trips before.

    Hey I got tickets for the Liverpool match - so pumped!!! I'm sitting in one of the new quadrants on the north side (they haven't confirmed west or east yet). Anyways what is the atmosphere like in these sections? the view?

    I have taken two stadium tours of Old Trafford hoping for a third next April literally took my breath away, it is everything as advertised. Not a bad seat in the house.
    The megastore is a bit disappointing.
