Buy Hull City vs Tottenham Hotspur tickets for the 2026/27 Season, with the Premier League fixture set for Saturday 12 December 2026 and kick-off currently listed at 16:00. The venue is the MKM Stadium in West Park, a modern all-seater of around 25,500 that opened in 2002 and is shared with the city's rugby league club. This is Hull's first meeting with Spurs in the top flight since 2017.

The history at this ground makes the fixture an easy sell for the home crowd. Hull have never beaten Tottenham here in the Premier League and the last meeting ended in a 7-1 defeat on the final day of the 2016/17 season. Anyone following Hull City this season will want that record rewritten.
Supply is tight for a match of this profile. A capacity of 25,500 is modest by Premier League standards, season ticket holders take a large share and Spurs bring one of the bigger travelling followings in the division. Broadcast picks and kick-off times are confirmed a few weeks ahead, so the listed time can still move.
Hull have waited nine years for afternoons like this. The club returned to the Premier League in 2026 after winning the Championship play-off final and the fixtures against the established names are the ones supporters marked first. A visit from Tottenham sits near the top of that list.
The visitors bring numbers and profile. Tottenham Hotspur fill their allocation at grounds across the country and their section at the MKM sits in a corner where rail seating was installed in 2025 for safe standing. A full away end changes the feel of a ground this size.
Scarcity does the rest. With 25,500 seats and a season ticket base built through years in the Championship, Hull have far less to sell than most Premier League clubs. Sections close one at a time rather than the ground filling evenly and the better-placed seats go first.
December timing adds to it. A Saturday afternoon before Christmas suits families and groups travelling in from across East Yorkshire and a newly promoted club chasing points before the busy period gives the match genuine stakes.
For buyers, the conclusion is straightforward. Leave this until the final week and the choice narrows to whatever is left at the top of the range, if anything remains at all. Groups in particular should buy early.
The rugby league connection matters in Hull too. The MKM is shared with the city's rugby league club, so the stadium is busy across the year and locals are used to filling it. That habit carries into football season and keeps the atmosphere strong even when results are hard to come by.
Through the club it is difficult for a fixture of this size. Hull sell to season ticket holders first, then to members in priority order and general sale for the bigger visitors can open with very little left. Promotion has pushed membership demand higher than it was in the Championship.
Membership alone does not guarantee a seat either. Priority usually reflects purchase history, so supporters who joined recently sit behind those with longer records. Occasional attenders often find the club route closed well before matchday.
A verified resale marketplace is the practical alternative. You can pick the area you want, see the price up front and buy without holding a membership or building up points. For overseas fans and visitors from outside the region, it is usually the only realistic route.
Groups benefit most. Club sales cap how many tickets each account can buy, which makes it hard to keep four or six people together in a ground this size. Marketplace listings show how many seats sit side by side, so a group can plan properly.
Tottenham supporters have their own route through their club, which receives the away allocation. Visiting fans who miss out should buy only listings that confirm places inside the away section, as the MKM is too compact to hide away colours in a home area.
Timing on the resale route matters as well. Listings tend to arrive in waves, first when the fixture is confirmed and again once season ticket holders know they cannot attend. Watching the market over a few weeks usually beats buying in a rush on the final weekend.
Five things shape the price for this match. Seat location comes first, with the central blocks of the two-tier West Stand at the top of the range. Demand follows and a visit from Tottenham sits among the strongest draws on Hull's home calendar.
Timing matters as well: prices move as the 2026/27 season unfolds and the kick-off time is confirmed. Competition context counts, because a Premier League fixture against a club of this profile prices above a quieter league date, though in a similar bracket to Hull City vs Liverpool. Finally, the hospitality tier you choose sets its own bracket.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Behind the goal | £60 – £110 | Fans who want atmosphere | The Chris Chilton Stand end, where the home singing section gathers |
| East Stand | £70 – £125 | Buyers who want a side-on view at a lower-priced level | Faces the main stand across the pitch |
| West Stand, lower tier | £95 – £170 | Buyers who want to be close to the pitch | Held largely by season ticket holders, so supply is thin |
| West Stand, central | £130 – £250+ | Buyers who want the clearest view | Two-tier main stand near the halfway line |
| Hospitality / VIP | £250 – £550+ | Corporate guests and special occasions | Dining, lounge access and a padded seat; packages vary |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
Resale here sits above face value for a simple reason. A newly promoted club with 25,500 seats and a loyal membership base releases very little to the open market, so the price reflects scarcity rather than the size of the occasion alone.
The MKM is a modern all-seater bowl with four stands, the largest being the two-tier West Stand along one side. Every area sits reasonably close to the pitch, which is one of the advantages of a ground built this size. The MKM Stadium seating plan shows how the stands and corners fit together.
For the wider matchday picture, from the history of the ground to getting there on the day, see our guide to the MKM Stadium. It pairs well with the seat advice below.
The West Stand holds the premium seating and the hospitality areas, with the East Stand facing it across the pitch. The Chris Chilton Stand sits behind one goal and is where the home support gathers, while the away section occupies a corner with its own entrance and route.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| West Stand, central | Buyers who want a covered central view | Upper | Two-tier main stand near the halfway line; limited supply |
| West Stand, lateral | Couples and families | Middle to upper | Main stand comfort with an angled view |
| East Stand | Neutrals who want a side-on view | Middle | Good position at a friendlier price than the West Stand |
| Chris Chilton Stand | Fans who want noise and songs | Lower to middle | Behind the goal among the home support |
| Corner blocks | Groups and budget buyers | Lower to middle | Angled view, often the easiest place to sit together |
| Away section (corner, rail seating) | Tottenham supporters | Middle | Rail seating installed in 2025, with a separate entrance; Spurs colours only here |
Neutral buyers and undecided fans should aim for the East Stand or the lateral West Stand. Both avoid the colours question that comes with the home end and the away corner and both give a fair view of the game. If you are travelling with Spurs supporters, buy inside the away section rather than a neighbouring home block.
Because the bowl is compact, height matters more than proximity here. The upper tier of the West Stand gives a clear view of the shape of the game without feeling remote, while the front rows put you close enough to hear the coaching from the technical areas.
December in Hull means wind off the Humber as much as cold and the ground sits in open parkland rather than sheltered streets. Dress for an exposed afternoon whichever stand you choose.
Accessible places are allocated separately from standard seats. If you or a member of your group needs one, confirm with the listing notes before paying that the seat suits your needs, including space for a companion.
Families should note that the ground is easy to reach on foot from the city centre, which makes it a practical choice for a first live match. Younger supporters tend to do better in the East Stand or the corners than in the home end, where the singing is constant and most people stand for long stretches.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Premium seat package | Couples and small groups | A padded central seat in the West Stand with lounge access |
| Business lounge | Local firms and corporate guests | Dining and drinks indoors with a reserved seat outside |
| Executive box | Client entertaining and celebrations | A private space for a group with its own service |
| Matchday experience package | Visitors marking a special occasion | Hospitality built around the standout fixtures on the calendar |
Hospitality at the MKM is arranged by the club fixture by fixture and the premium areas sit within the West Stand. Inclusions vary by package, so confirm what food, drink and parking are covered before you commit.
For a December afternoon on the east coast, hospitality has a practical upside. You spend the build-up indoors and warm, then take your seat shortly before the teams come out. For a fixture with this much demand it can also be a surer route into the ground than a standard ticket.
Premium capacity at a club of this size is limited. If hospitality is the plan for a visit from Tottenham, allow more lead time than you would for a standard fixture.
Hospitality guests should plan for an earlier arrival. Packages usually open a couple of hours before kick-off with a set dining window, so a late arrival can mean missing part of what you paid for. Confirm the arrival time on your booking before you travel.
| Delivery Type | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| Mobile ticket | That the transfer opens on your phone and shows in the correct app before matchday |
| E-ticket (PDF) | That the file displays clearly and matches the seat described in the listing |
| Paper ticket or card by courier | That your delivery address is correct and someone can sign for the envelope |
| Collection in Hull | The meeting point, collection window and contact details in your order confirmation |
Read the listing notes before you pay, since they show the delivery method and any restriction on the seat. Bring valid photo ID on matchday in case stewards ask for it and charge your phone fully if you are using a mobile ticket.
Tickets for Premier League matches are often released to sellers close to matchday, so do not worry if yours arrive in the final week. Your order stays covered throughout and the delivery timeline appears in your confirmation email.
Hull Paragon Interchange, the city's combined rail and bus station, is around a twenty-minute walk from the ground, with buses and taxis covering the distance in a few minutes. Drivers reach the stadium from the M62 and the A63 and there is a large car park alongside, though it fills early on a matchday.
Bag rules are strict. Large bags and rucksacks are refused, only small bags are admitted subject to search and there is no left-luggage service at the ground. Arrive in good time to clear the queues before kick-off.
The walk from the centre through West Park is part of the experience and the pubs around the Old Town fill with supporters before a big fixture. Give yourself time at both ends of the day rather than arriving at the turnstile with ten minutes to spare.

Value is not only about the lowest number on the screen. A seat in the upper tier that keeps your group together is worth more than a scattered pair closer to the pitch and on a cold afternoon a covered place earns its premium. Set a budget first, then pick the area that fits it.
Watch the table as the date approaches too. If Hull go into December fighting for survival, interest from local supporters climbs and prices follow, while a settled run of results can leave more listings at the lower end.
One more thought on who you are buying for. A first-time visitor will get more from a seat on one of the long sides, where the whole pitch is in view, while a supporter who wants the noise will look for a place near the home end. Matching the section to the person beats chasing the lowest figure on the page.
Overseas buyers have plenty of choice on delivery. Mobile transfers and e-tickets suit anyone flying in the day before, while courier delivery works best if you have a fixed UK address and time to spare. Most international visitors arrive through Manchester or Leeds Bradford and continue to Hull by train, a journey of a couple of hours from either.
Seats together are easier to secure early, so groups should not wait for the last week. Keep your travel plans flexible where you can, as Premier League fixtures move once television picks are confirmed and a Saturday match can shift to Sunday. Refundable hotel rates and later flight booking reduce that risk.
Hull itself rewards a short stay, with the Old Town, the marina and The Deep aquarium within walking distance of the centre. The city was UK City of Culture in 2017 and the centre has been reshaped since.
Tottenham supporters face a long trip north, close to 200 miles each way from London. Trains run from London to Hull directly and with a Saturday afternoon kick-off most travelling fans make it a day rather than an overnight stay. The reverse fixture, Tottenham Hotspur vs Hull City, falls later in the season for anyone planning both.
The record at this ground gives the fixture its shape and it does not read well for the hosts. Hull have played Tottenham five times in the Premier League at the MKM and have never won, losing four and drawing one. In each of those five matches they have scored exactly one goal.
The early meetings set the pattern. Spurs won 2-1 on their first league visit in February 2009, then returned in August 2009 and won 5-1 on the opening weekend of the season. Hull were competitive in the top flight in both campaigns, which made the results sting.
The last two visits followed the same script. A 1-1 draw in February 2014 remains the only point Hull have taken from Spurs here, before a 2-1 defeat in November 2014 and then the 7-1 loss on the final day of the 2016/17 season, a result that sent Hull down in the heaviest way possible.
That is the backdrop to December. Hull have spent nine years working their way back to this level and a home win over Tottenham would rewrite a record that has stood since their first season in the Premier League.
What makes this fixture distinctive is the imbalance and what the hosts can do about it. Five matches, one point and 17 goals conceded is a record that gives the home crowd a clear motivation and newly promoted sides often produce their strongest performances against visitors like these. For a buyer, that means an afternoon with an obvious story attached.
The ground has its own history despite its age. Opened in 2002 and shared with the city's rugby league club, the MKM replaced Boothferry Park and has hosted Premier League football in three previous spells, with a fourth beginning this season.
There is a gap in resources behind the record and it is worth being clear about it. Tottenham operate at a level of spending Hull cannot match and every one of these five meetings came in a season when that was true. Promotion narrows the gap on matchday more than it does on the balance sheet, which is exactly why home form matters so much to a newly promoted side.
