RedTV end of season update
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our RedTV subscribers as well as Virtual Season Ticket holders and Pay-per-View supporters for watching throughout the season. It has been a turbulent season on and off the pitch and while it’s been disappointing not to have you at Pittodrie with us we hope that our coverage has been enjoyable and brought you as close to the action as we could in the circumstances.
We’ve got further exciting plans for RedTV in the new season which will be announced in the coming weeks and of course, RedTV will be the best place to keep up to date with the latest news and developments from the club in pre-season.
We are also delighted to confirm that the club have recently extended our ongoing partnership with Stream Digital- you can read more about this below.
UPDATE FOR SEASON TICKET HOLDERS
As confirmed a few weeks ago, the SPFL and Sky Sports have agreed to allow our Virtual Season Ticket offering to continue throughout season 2021-22. If you have purchased a Season Ticket for next season this guarantees you will be able to watch the action virtually and -hopefully before too long- in person at Pittodrie!
We look forward to seeing Pittodrie full again, with the Red Shed in full flow and returning a proper home advantage but for the times when you can’t make it, we want you to know that you will still be able to follow the action from home.
In instances where you opt for virtual access your season ticket card will be disabled for the match and vice versa. There will also be a cut-off point prior to matchday (TBC) where virtual access must be enabled by contacting the Ticket Office.
If you would like more information on this or any other aspect of your season ticket membership for the season ahead please contact the Ticket Office via ticketoffice@afc.co.uk or by calling 01224 63 1903.

Stream Digital signs new deal with Aberdeen FC
Stream Digital, Scotland’s leading video platform company, is delighted to announce it has signed a new contract with Aberdeen Football Club.
The new three-year agreement will run to the summer of 2024 and sees the company continue to provide the club with all technical, customer and billing support for RedTV, the Dons’ live streaming and Video On Demand subscription platform.
The company has worked with Aberdeen since 2015 and has been continually improving the service since.
Paul Aniello, Stream Digital Managing Director, said: “We have been working with Aberdeen FC for a number of years and are delighted to continue our relationship with the club.
“We have helped the club introduce a host of new features and look forward to continuing to raise the bar when it comes to live streaming matches for their supporters around the world.”
Aberdeen FC’s Commercial Director Rob Wicks said: “We are delighted to extend our long-standing partnership with Stream Digital with this new three-year deal.
“Over the last six years they have provided excellent support and service as our RedTV product has grown and developed.
“The last twelve months have thrown some major challenges our way in facilitating our Virtual Season Tickets and Pay-Per-View options as well as the RedTV platform for our international viewers, but these have been handled professionally and expediently by Stream Digital.
“We look forward to working with them next season and beyond as we move towards a wider membership model for the club.”
Stream Digital currently delivers streaming services to thousands of football fans across the globe thanks to partnerships with 11 out of the 12 Scottish Premiership clubs.
From its Livingston base, it also provided tailor-made solutions for a further seven clubs outwith the top flight this season, including newly-promoted Heart of Midlothian.
The firm recently announced a ground-breaking expansion with the launch of the UK’s first permanent facility designed solely for live streaming music concerts.
With a 10,000 sq. ft. performance centre having been purposely built within the company’s West Lothian studios, it’s thought the Big Gig Box could be a game-changer for an industry decimated by the pandemic.
“As Scotland’s leading video platform company, we have huge experience in live streaming football matches to a worldwide customer base, with all the necessary customer support and infrastructure,” added Mr Aniello.
“We also work in film and television, so it seemed the natural thing to do to combine that expertise to stream sports and music.”
