This Saturday, the Gunners will face London City Lionesses for the season opener. For the first time in history, all 11 WSL home games will be played at the iconic stadium, firmly establishing N5 as the main home of Arsenal Women.

Before kick-off, there’s a bittersweet farewell to Lia Walti, the club’s legendary midfielder who has joined Juventus after 183 appearances for Arsenal. Right after, fans will be treated to the UWCL trophy presentation – a reminder of the team’s glittering success and a perfect warm-up before the first whistle.
And here’s something for the art and football lovers: a new crowd surfer will make its debut across the East Stand. This collaborative piece was co-created by members of the Arsenal Women Supporters’ Club, new season ticket holders, and artist (and proud Gooner) Loz Corelli.
Season ticket holders and Six Game Bundle members get extra perks this season with post-match meet-and-greets. Through a ballot system, small groups of supporters will get the chance to meet first-team players, grab autographs, and take photos at Emirates Stadium. It’s a behind-the-scenes touch that brings fans closer to the action than ever.
Arsenal Women Head Coach Renee Slegers said:
“We can’t wait to be back together with our supporters again at the Emirates. The foundations we’ve built – and continue to build together – will lift us higher this season. Every moment we share makes us stronger. Let’s all show up strong on Saturday and make this a season to remember together.”
For fans looking to really treat themselves, Emirates’ Club Level offers premium seating, enhanced hospitality, and the perfect spot to soak in all the pre-match celebrations in style.
Fans will also notice graphics celebrating the team’s 63 honours inside the stadium bowl, including last season’s UEFA Champions League triumph. On top of that, Arsenal Women are participating in the Barclays WSL Alcohol Choice pilot, allowing supporters to enjoy alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks within view of the pitch, including allocated seats in the stadium bowl.
Arsenal Women are making history on and off the pitch. Whether you’re a long-time supporter or a new fan grabbing your first season ticket, this is the WSL season to be part of. Grab your ticket and get to the Emirates.
See you there,
